GLASSFORD SINGS OF SUCCESS
IN VERSESFULL Of HOPEFULLNESS
Poem Of Optimism Should Cheer You Along
Lies Rocky Thoroughfare

Our local poet laureate, Jesse c.
GlassfOrd, made big hit at the Elks
smoker at Montrose Monday night
He recited a poem of his own COM
position, which was considered such
gem that it was reproduced in full
in the Montrose Press. The title of
it is Success" and the stanzas are so
full of merit that The Sentinel gladly
republishes It for the benefit of its
readers.
When you're down and out, discour-
aged,
And the old world makes you blue,
AS she scatters out her favors,
And seems overlooking you.
And you do not get the roses
That she gives to those who win.
It's because you quit the battle
Or never did begin.
Don't you hear a small voice whisper
Start again and be n man?
If the other fellows done it,
Don't you know you surely can?
Success has kept on knocking,
And keeps knocking more and
more
And she only waits your greeting,
AS you open up the door.
1t seems hard to start all over,
If you've been up to the top;
But the road is more familiar,
Start again and do not stopl
There are others who have started,
With a will and with their might ;
And the world crowned them with
laurels
When they reached the summit S
height.
If you've never started upward
Left your talents in suspense
Try to strengthen up your courage
With little confidence.
Don't be scared. the road is easy
And it's you that's awful slow;
Take reef into your courage,
And it's on to the top you go
You'll meet others on the Journey
Give to them a helping hand,
II they are slowly slipping backward
Help them up to where YOU stand.
You'll get strength in helping others,
And the friend along the way,
May perhaps be one that's needed
To help you on some day
VIII you start Come on and show
them
And the world what you can do
There can be no end like failure.
If you start the battle true.
Just start the journey grinning,
And If you have to stop.
Gather then your surplus courage.
Start again and reach the top,

thirteenth annual road race between
