Contribute Year share
Rv Mary Hanchett Tibbitts. Brunswick
Wear o smile on your face.
Tho tits only mask,
II will soon find it's way to your soul'
And the days and the years
AS swiftly they pass
will but lightly take their toll;
For the soul responds
To the lightest trace
OF thoughts that cheer or destroy.
Be glad you live
In this great big world.
And contribute your share to its JOY
Forget the cross
You may have to bear,
with a smile send it drifting away
And search for the good
In this world Of ours,
You can find some from day to day.
And rid your soul
OF its bitterness.
In the mission smile employ,
And make the world brighter
For you and for me
Just contribute your share to its JOY.
The sane Fourth
BY Mary Hanchett Tibbitts. Brunswick
From near and from far there comes
cry
For a deahtless, noiseless Fourth OF
July.
Oh who can invent this wond'rous
thing
glorious Fourth without its sting.
No loss Of life, no MAIN Of limb.
No brightness marred by q funerai
hymn.
When girls can sing. and boys can
shout,
with no fear that death may lurk
about.
we honor the names Of History's great,
who founded the nation and builded
! the state.
Little thought they that as years pass
! ed by
we'd have such a murderous 4th OF
July
Oh who from the depths of his brain
can bring
This ,Ionged-for, talked-of needed thing.
In the hearts of the mothers he'll Oft
! be blest
Who brings to their worrying minds a
rest
who plans for the world little less
noise.
