KEEP SWEET AND KEEP MoVIN'.

Homely. phrase of our southland bright Keep steady step to the liam of the drum; Touch to the left-eyes to the right Sing with the soul tho the lips be dumb. Hard to be good when the winds in the east; Hard to be gay when the heart is down; When they that trouble you are in- creased" When you look for smile and see a frown,
 Keep sweet and keep movin'. " Sorrow will shade the blue sky gray Gray is the color our brothers wore; Sunshine will scatter the clouds away; Azure will gleam in the skies once more. Colors of Patience and Hope are they Always at even in one they blend; Tinting the heavens by night and day, Over our hearts to the journeys end.
  Keep sweet and keep movin'. D Hard to be sweet when the throng is dense, When elbows jostle and shoulders crowd; Easy to give and to take offense When the touch is rough and the voice is loud Keep to the right" in the city's throng; Divide the road' on the broad high There's one way right when every things wrong; Easy and fair goes far in day.
 Just Keep sweet and keep movin'. " The quick taunt answers the hasty word The lifetime chance for 'help" is missed; The muddiest pool is a fountain stir red, A kind hand clenched makes an ugly fist. When the nerves are tense and the mind is veXed, The spark lies close to the maga- zine; Whisper hope to the soul perplex- Banish the fear with a smile se-
 Just Keep sweet and keep movin'. "
