Munday enterprises.
Munday was expected to conclude
his direct testimony today and be
turned over to the state for cross ex-
animation tomorrow.

The Pleasant Smile
A FRIEND.

He was not rich in worldly goods; No offices he held; In no one field 1t might be said Of him that he excelled; lie managed but to get along, To march with rank and file, And get he was unique in this He had a pleasant smile. While others careworn faces
 wore,
 He smiled his way through life: He'd had his share of troubles. o f worldly care and strife; But somehow furrows never
 came
 That mark the weary mile; His face d benediction vas He had a pleasant smile. He made our burdens lighter
 seem.
 Our worries chased away; His cheery greeting always made A brighter, lighter day. What though he never rose to
 fame,
 Or never made his pile? A monarch might have envied
 him
 He had a pleasant smile.
