81 CANT "

Il Can't lacks in nerve; he's to
faint of heart
To pitch in like man and do hi
part;
He's none of the spirit that fights an
wins;
He admits he's beaten before he be
gins.
Il Can't sees a mountains wha
holder eyes
Recognize as mole Lills; ambitio
dies,
And leaves him complaining in help
less wrath,
When the first obstacle blocks hi
path.
Il Can't" has notion that, out o
spite,
He's being cheated Of what's his right
The men who succeed by hard W orl
and pluck,
He envies and sneers at as Fools 70

Il Can't" is a loafer, who won't admi
That his life's the mess he has mad
OF it;
The treasure that's sparkling beneatl
his ey.,
He thinks he can't reach-and won
even try.
Il CAN'T has a feeling the worlds il
debt
To him for living he's failed to get
But. given a chance to collect, he'll
About past failures, and whine, g

Il WIFI has a spirit that nothing
Once he gets his eye on the thing h,
wants
He rolls up his sleeves and he pitche.
With a splendid zeal that is bound t.
win
II Will" never hesitates lest he fail
In his heart he's sure that he will
prevail
No mountain can halt him, howeve
high;
There's no task so hard but he'll have
try.
Il Will' sets his teeth when thing;
start off wrong;
He just grins, and muiters: "Thi
can't last long
I'll take fresh start; and Adversely
Will be going some if he catches me.
Il WIZ has a punch hid in eithe,
hand
He has training, strength, and heal
OF sand
He swings his hard fists in the world
grim face,
And ne bangs away till the wor1t
gives place.
Il VIII" understands in his oWr
strength lies
The one chance he'll get at the thing;
men prize.
Encouragement failure-nothing car
chill
The stout heart OF him who declare:
Il will -
