SERVICE
By w. R. GUIBERSoN
Rotarian of Los Angeles, Cal.

Down through the history of the world,
AS time its record has unfurled,
We read the story, as is told
Upon its pages, glaring, bold
Of deeds performed by men who gave
Their ALL cen life, some cause to save,
And in the giving, void of thought
Of private gain honor brought.
But with an eagerness intent
Upon preventing betterment.
And side by side with victories won,
The stories of the man undone;
Of men whose thoughts were private needs,
Of lives laid bare by selfish greeds,
And to their ignomnous ends,
Forgotten cen by foes and friends,
They passed, and on the pages spent,
No praise of their accomplishment.
And through it all lesson clear
That man must live to know and fear,
And through that fear, the truth he'll fiQd
Unselfsh service to mankind,
And in that service the success,
That marks mans true worthiness.
And on and on the story reads
Of noble thoughts and righteous deed
Of him who sacrificed his soul
To worship at the shrine of gold.
And each went down unto his grave
And carried only what he gave,
For in that starry realm unknown,
God judges by the deeds alone,
Nor earth possessions pave the way,
When passing to that Judgment Day.
