KEEP QOING
By Edgar A. Guest

When things wrong, they sometimes will
And the road you're tudging all up hill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing down bit
Rest IL you mlst-but don't you quit.
Life Is queer with its twists and turns
AS every one OF sometimes learns
And many failure about
When he might have had he stuck 1t out
Don't give up though the pace slow,
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is than
1t seems to a faint and faltering man
offen he might have captured the victOrs cup
And ne learned too late when the night slpped down
How close ne was to the golden crown
success Is failure turned inside
Ihe silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you tell how close YOU are
1t may be near when it afar;
Stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
ts when things seem worse that you mustn't quit
