be YOUR endeavor to wear a cheer
ful face: don / cast wet blankets
Io'er us: there are enough to bore
us with their depressing chorus,
when grief IS a disgrace We hear
enough forecasting disaster, as
we go; we hear enough dod-gast

enough OF signing, we see enough
OF crying, without another trying
to hand out slabs OF woe Don't
labor to dishearten the delegates
YOU meet, but show. with courage
Spartan. smile serene and sweet;
we're weary OF the fellow who,
with his streak OF yellow. can only

blazes, and always has been true
a lot OF grouchy phrases won't
make things good a. new; should
we strike ugly sailing. and see
Our plans go trailing. lot OF tears
and waiting won't make the boys
less blue One thing is true as
thunder, and always has been so;
if we would trample under a
fierce and deadly foe we need
high hearts, undaunted, and with
us is not wanted the man who's
always Haunted the condor wings
OF woe. SO dry your tears dis
