The World.

Today, whatever may annoy,
The word for me is Joy, just simple
JOY;
The joy Of life;
The joy of children and of wife;
The joy of bright blue skies;
The joy of rain; the glad surprise
OF twinkling stars that shine at
night;
The joy of winged things upon their
flight;
The joy of MONDAY and of mirth;
True joyousness of eventide;
The joy of labor, and of mirth;
The joy of air and sea and earth
The countless joys that ever flow
from Him
Whose vast beneficence doth dim
The Lustrous light of day,
And lavish gifts divine upon our
way,
Whate'er there be of Sorrow
I'll put off till Tomorrow,
And when Tomorrow comes, why then
Twill be Today and Joy again.

Luke and Mathew Gregory were simple, hard

when lads of only three years. The elder Greg
ory had been miner in Scotland With him he
brought his household effects, among which were

made his way little by little. From his meager
wages he saved something and through his skill
