Nor what OF care u may hcstow,
or shall bow TO failures sting
or fall before disasters blow;
But whether skies be clear or gray,
Ana whcresoo'cr my path may wcnd,
/ know somewhere along the way
| shall be greeted by friend,
/ shall not walk SO very far
Before somo smiling face I'll sec.
For everywhere good people are
who'll wave kindly hand az me,
SO filled with chance is every day
THAT no monotouy appears,
And / may find along the way
A friend | haven't seen for years,
No day IS like It's yesterday.
The busy people come and SO
And some have kindly words TO say
And somo repeat their tales OF woe;

Another comes TO say goodbye,
One halls me from his motor car
To somo new charm the minutes ny,

Just what the morning has in store,
But | am sure when ends the day
There will be joys worth living for.
And this | know Nehow somewhere,
Before the shades OF night descend.

Here is an illustration worth while
which surely applies to man as well
as to lower animals.
And still more wonderful thing is
to be able to get other men to re-
pond that way when you call upon
them. That is what the great men
of industry-as we'll as of war, the
great men of politics and of church
work and community service-have
been abe to do.
1t isn't a science, which you can
reduce to formula. 1t is an ART,

are born with it or can acquire it
by practice and thought, this power
to GET OTHERS TO RESPOND.
There are those who can make even
a jackass get into the collar and do
his share, but you will notice it is
never done till he has a certain
amount of pain and punishment which
a thoroughbred does not need.
Say-do you pull at the slightest
cluck, or do you wait till you get the

to labor, in business, in church, or
in the community, with immediate
willing pull, or do you respond with
kick, balk, or an excuse?-King-
