JUST FOLKS
BY EDGAR A. GUEST

WORK.
Whenever there's a task TO do
1t means the world has need OF you
Whenever there's a hammer raised,
Wherever metal must be brazed,
Whenever nail is driven in,
Or fixed a tiny cotter pin.
There shall be when the work is
Ger
More JOY than men have known be-
fore.
The man who puts his hand to toll,
The ploughbOy turning up the soil,
The laborer or mechanic skilled.
Give something of themselves to
build
The better world; a duty done
Improves the path men travel on,
And there's no deed so common
place
But what bestows it's sum Of grace.
No man has ever toiled in vain
Who sweeps a street or cleans a
drain.
Who drives a nail or Yields a sledge
Or works with tools Of keener edge
Is lettering the lives OF men
And adding 10 their comforts then,
For from such service here has
come
Relief from much that's burden
some
Beauty and peace Of mind and ease
Are born Of duties such as these.
Whenever man employs a wrench
Or stands to service at his bench,
Whenever there's a hammer raised,
Whenever there's a window glazed,
Whenever man has served a cause,
The world is better than 1t was.
