Meet Him With a Smile

When a fcller's feelin' blue,
And his looks appeal to you;
Then it's clear what you should do,
Just meet him with a smile.
When a feller's almost in.
And is getting short or IN;
Then help him the world to win,
And meet him with a smile.
When a feller's fightin' sin,
And the vic'tries hard to win;
Then help him to just dig in,
And meet him with smile.
When feller's down and out,
And the devils hard to rout;
Then help him to turn about,
And meet him with a smile.
When feller needs friend,
That his ways he may amend;
'Tis for you hand to lend.
And meet him with a smile.
When a feller's feelin' blue,
And he don't know what to do;
Then it's clearly uD to you.
To meet him with smile.
When feller's maxim hay,
And it is rainy day;
And he can't look tlithe and gay,
Just meet him with a smile.

LEARNING TO SING
SOUTHERN SONGS
(By Associated Negro Pressl


HOBOKEN. N. j., Dec. 17.-As part
of its work, the section on music of
the department of religious education
of the Young Womens Christian as
sociation is compiling book Of Ne
gro melodies suitable for girls voices
This book will also contain some
hymns which have proved themselves
to be universal favorites among school
girls Stories of the origin and the
Interpretation of the Negro melodies
will also lie included, that the girls
who sing them may fully appreciate
their charm.
The reason for compiling this book
is that such songs are prepared, as a
rule, for mems voices, the range of
notes being difficult for the voices Of
growing girls.
Music is new venture in the Y.
W. c.. A. bureau of religious educa-
tion, and is already proving itself Of
value in furthering the purpose of
the bureau which, to understand the
thought and life of women and girls
in this and other lands; to serve as
resource on materials and meth
DDS of religious education; to lead
the association movement to find it's
place in the nationwide task Of bring
ing the message and program of
Christ to beaf on every young woman
to become a permeating force for
moral and spiritual reality through
out all phases of Y. w. C. A. life at
home and abroad, according to Miss
Ethel Cutler, head of the bureau.
