The Other Mans Chance.

How smoothly everything would go.
How nicely all things would be run.
How sweetly all the winds would blow,
How fairly all things would be done,
How quickly we should do away
With every evil that distresses.
If each man might possess today
The chance some other man posSpSSps
How suddenly the skies would clear.
How quickly Sorrowing would cease,
How soon our ills would disappear.
How fast our fortunes would increase,
How quickly from earth's broad eXpans,
The thing called failure would b,
driven.
If each man could possess the chance
That to some other man is given.

during 1910 one life was lost in every

steamers has become much more rigid

Through Tinted Glass.

If sight must pass through tinted glass.
Heaven will lose its blue;
Emerald blade and sun-fecked glade.
Then blend their gold and green and fad
Into the crystals hue.
Frown- blinded eyes view leaden skies
And garb the world in gray;
Each tiny cloud appears to shrOid

To wreck the car of Day.
Seen through a smile, the sunken Nile
Swells toward the thirsty soil.
There's naught to mar Apollo's car;
BY laughter. clouds are scattered far
Alls play that once was toll.
