WHEN YOU SMILE

When you smile the sun shines brighter
And the sky seems twice as blue;
AS you mete it out to others,
1t is measured back to you.
When you smile the load grows lighter,
And it shortens many mile.
Why not try it? You will like it,
If you'll smile, smile smile.
When you meet friend or neighbor
It's not up to you to groan.
He doesn't want to- hear about it
He has troubles of his own.
Bite your lip and keep on smiling!
Think of something glad a while!
Folks are glad to see you coming
When you smile, smile, smile.

MIGHT KEEP THE BOY

Some time ago the authorities picked
up a young boy and sent him to the In
dustrial school. The boy made an
earnest plea that they let him bring his
dog along The parole officer wrote
the boys mother: "We have your boy
and dog. What shall we do with them?"
The mother replied: "Do what you
please with the boy but send me the
dog."-Rx.

TO POETRY

Thou lady of my dreams awake or sleep
ing,
Thou enemy of work, and peace, and play.
Thine eyes are turned forever from my
seeking
Both night and day.
Waking dream, and dreaming awaken,
The years are passing as a flight of stars,
And in the darkness now l am forsaken
Behind these bars.
l meet in thee my last, my only lover,
I find in thee my first unfailing friend,
And yet l know l never shall discover
How to unbend
Thy subtle form and delicate surprising,
Or wrest from thee one secret of thine art
Ere with unanswered question and sur
missing
too depart.

PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE

Laugh, and the world laughs with you;
Weep, and you weep alone;
For the sad old earth must borrow its
mirth,
But has troubles enough of its own.
Sing, and the hills will answer;
Sigh, it is lost on the air.
The echoes bound to joyful sound,
But shrink from the voice of care.
Rejoice, and men will seek you;
Grieve, and they turn and go.
They want full measure Of all your pleas
ure,
But they do not need your woe.
Be glad. and your friends are many;
Be sad, and you lose them all.
There are none to decline your nectared
wine
But alone you must drink life's gall.
Feast, and your halls are crowded;
Fast, and the world goes by.
Succeed and give, and it helps you live,
But no man can help you die.
There is room in the halls of pleasure
For large and lordly train,
But one by one we must all file on
Through the narrow aisles of pain.
-SeIecfsd.

GRASP TODAY

Get all the good there is today,
Don't fret about tomorrow.
There's trouble around us all the time.
What need is there to borrow?
The wise man gets what Joy he can,
And leaves the fool his folly.
He knows too much to waste his life
In gloom and melancholy.

GROWING TO BEAUTY

AS a stricken marble grows to beauty,
When its sculptor the chisel wields;
So does sinner, well perform his duty,
When he no more to temptation yields
