A CURE FOR CROUCH.

When your re feelin' blue an scrappy an
everyone you meet
Sort o turns aside To give you room q
Passin' long the street,
When you're snsppy an you're scrap-
py, on your shoulder rests chip.
Let u.e tell you somethin'
here's q friendly sort of tip;
Just hike OFF to the autumn woods where
all IL calm and still
An stop . while an listen to the wild
birds as they trill,
just watch the squirrels scamper an
just see the rabbit run
An gather up some goIdenrod . shinin'
in the sun.
Just for the once forget about a world al
sordid things,
Just fancy you're a wild thing with the
JOY a Wild life brings.
Just kick your heels an hoIler or jus:
whistle some glad tune
An dart around as happy A. q butter
fly in June.
That's the way to work Crouch OFF =
get away TO Natures JOY
let her take you by the hand just like
she did you when a boy,
Forget the memory maxim an the fight
in all the way
An be a child OF Nature II it's but fol
half q day,
''et close To God an simple things an
just once try to lie
A little brother 10 the fox. the quail ans
chick-s-dee.
