much-abused profession from its as

Smith up by saying that we know by
personal experience that when mar
is in trouble a good lawyer is some
times like the shadow of great rocl
in desert land. The verses are from
a professional publication and read a
follows:
He's man of sorrow,
And acquainted with grief;
Among all the sinners
| He's considered the chief.
His friends all admire him
When he conquers for them;
When he chances to lose
They are quick to condemn.
They say. "Ah! he's bought"
| If he loses a case.
They say, "Ah! he's crooked"
| If he wins in the race.
If he charges big fees,
They say, "He's a CRATER"
If he charges small fees,
He's not worth going after"
If he joins the church,
"It's for an effect"
If he doesn't join the church,
"He's as wicked as heck"
But here is one fact
We all must admit.
When we get into trouble.
Our lawyer is at"
