The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-01-14

In worldly affairs as in matters of
mind,
And from characters often we con-
sciously steal
From the bad what is good, which we
seldom reveal.
But let us remember we're all just the
same
With some trivial differences too
slight to name,
And If we can find one good trait let us
show
We are too big for smallness, and let
the bad go!
