Mankind has known periods famine deessOns and var

lament the conditions which confront those who their diplomas

We hope however that this youth will profit the
mistakes their predecessors follow the those

are many of these people both
white and black in every COM
munity. >'
They are not the kind who are
clad in fine clothes, nor do they use
perfect English, nor do they enum-
crate their achievements, nor do
they announce their presence with
a trumpet. They are quiet and in
tellgent people who enjoy serving
and working for others. They be-
lieve in making themselves useful
in the community, pay or no pay,
degrees or no degrees. Many un-
paid social workers are doing a bet
ter job than some of the paid ones
because they are the most useful.

Time Off

We neighbor is home today,
He is fixing his roof asbestos gray,
Today he doesn't have to work at ALL
Next time he's off he'll repair the stone wall.
Time off to do that which he planned,
Repair places his eyes had scanned,
Unsightly places don't make a home complete,
For harmony is what the eye loves to meet
Time of helped him lot
For he could save labor and plot,
The way for something else to be done,
That didn't make it extensively
Time off allowed him to see a sick friend,
Who now is on his way to mend,
For helpful cheer to those shut in,
Gives courage to hold up his chin.
We can find time for frivolous things
Plan ahead and hope money brings
Us the happiness a good time bestows
But usefulness to humanity is where love flows.
