Successful Life Work.

He has achieved success who has
lived well, laughed often, and loved
much; who has gained the respect OF
intelligent men and the love of little
children; who has filled his niche
and accomplished his task; who left
the world better than he found 1t,
whether by an improved poppy, a
perfect poem or a rescued soul; who
has never lacked appreciation OF
earth's beauty or failed to express it;
who has always looked for the best
in others, and given the best he had;
whose life was an inspiration; whose
memory a benediction. President
Schurman.
