ADRIFT WITH THE TIMES
X CHANGE OF SENTIMENT

A CHANGE OF SENTIMENT I met gray philosopher Who scorned the quest of wealth; He said a greater heritage Was muscle, brawn and health. IL will not purchase happiness Or so this savant said, Who spoke as one who knew the truth And gravely shook his head. He sang the joys of poverty. And restfuIness of mind, Which millionaires seek far and wide. But very seldom find. The learned sage then passed from
 view
 I knew not wffere he went. But felt that he was poor and glad, His soul wrapped in content lately saw a mansion grand. In which he's said to dweil Hes on the lecture platform now And doing very well.
 TWoN'T DO THIS YEAR 'Is our candidate all primed and ready to go?"

 Why not?"
