HOMER MKEE'S PRAYER.
The Billboard: We do not know
who Homer Mckee may happen to be,
but certainly Homer McKee's Prayer
as published in the August Bulletin
by the Kansas State Board of Health,
is something that would be worth
while for all Of US to consider, and If
we commit the principle to heart we
cannot 90 far astray. Here ii is:
Teach me that sixty minutes make
An hour, sixteen ounces one pound, and
one hundred cents one dollar.
Help me to live so that | can lie
down at night with a clear conscience,
without gun under my pillow, and
unhaunted by the faces of those to
whom | have brought pain.
Grant, | beseech Thee, that | may
earn my meal ticket on the square,
and in doing thereof that | may not
stick the gait where it does not belong.
Deafen me to the jingle of tainted
money and the rustic of unholy skirts,
Blind me to the faults of the other
fellow, but reveal to me my own.
Guide me 50 that each night when |
look across the dinner table at my
wife, who has been blessing to me,
| will have nothing to conceal.
Keep me young enough to laugh
with my children and to lose myself
in their play.
And then when comes the smell Of
flowers, and the tread of soft steps,
and the crushing Of the hearse' 5
wheels in the gravel out 10 front of my
place make the ceremony short and the
epitaph simple:
HERE LIES A MAN.
