WHAT SORT OF A FRIEND ARE
YOU?

nyhat sort of a friend are you?
Do you stick by a brothers side.
Az YOU know you'd want him to do
If you we're as sternly tried?
Ia there ever a pleasure rare
That you willingly go without
To share another's care,
And smilingly help him out?
"Wbat sort of a friend are you?
Just one of the fair day kind.
A smile when the skies are blue,
Ahead when he falls behind?
DO you put yourself out at all,
Do you pass up a Joy that's nigh
To answer a brothers call,
Or selfshly hurry by?
"Do you stick when his days are glum
As you did when his days were fair!
When he wishes that you would come
Do you eagerly hurry there
Or do you think of yourself!
Each minute of the whole day thru,
OF comfort, of fame and pelf!
What sort of q friend are you?'
