Equality.

We come out this world
with nothing, but some find
wealth and power awaiting
them, while others find power
ty. Some achieve fame and
fortune; others lose ground
Gay by day. Some, born to
wealth, leave life through the
door Of want; some who in
he1ited poverty make their
exit with the trappings Of
Of wealth. And we often won
der at life's seeming inequali-
ties.
But there is one place where
the highest and the lowest
walk side by side; where the
power of a king or the wealth
of a merchant prince avails
nothing; where the deft touch
of the artist and the sinewy
arm Of the artisan no longer
exert their power; where the
melody Of the poet, the com
mand of the warrior and the
plea Of the beggar alike are
stilled. At this door of Eter-,
nifty all ranks are leveled by
the grim reaper, Death. In
the words of Longfel]ow:
There all are equal side by
side,
The poor man and the son
Of pride,
Lie calm and STILL"
The study Equality" bears
we may we'll consider
in the mad rush for the III
tangible something called
success" Fleeting indeed |
is worldly pomp and power, |
and the end of the face finds |
victors and vanquished side |
by side, III Equality at last.
But though death strips off

" ell-spent life. The deeds
