Is only the heritage;
And back to the scenes of Youthful
days
The paths that in youth you
trod-
Oh, how they deepen on memory's
page,
And how they lead on to God.
Go back there quick, to the Rockies
wild,
When hills and skies do meet;
Go back to the scenes that pleased
the child,
And find that in age they're
sweet;
Go back to the hills with towering
spruce.
And their wild flowers timid and
shy;
Go over there, and voice a prayer,
Under the turquoise sky.
But, alas, for me my childhood hills
Are very far away,
And ruffian lord, with flaming
sword,
Is seeding them with decay;
And the spruce is cut, and the ten
der flower
And the song of the child is
gone;
But I'm going back, to the hills of
youth,
When Freedoms war is won.

GOOD CHEER
BY Helen Van Anderson

BY Helen Van Anderson
A heart without fear,
A face full of cheer,
A smile for each one that you meet,
Make the very best tonic
Fo- ills that are chronic
A charm to make every day sweet.
Good-cheer is the name
Of this tonic of fame.
'Tis good for you all. rich or poor,
Twill give you good health,
Twill help you find wealth,
Twill happiness bring to your door.
Then smile and be CHEEKY,
Be loving and merry
If trials or frowns should beset you;
They're nothing but chances
For you to give elances
OF cheer and goodwill that they
met you.
