The world is a looking-glass, and gives back to every man the reflection of his own face. Frown at it, and it in turn will look sourly at you; laugh at it and with it, and it is a jolly, kind companion. William Makepeace Thackeray

ACHIEVEMENT That man is a success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children; who has filled his niche and accom- plished his task; who leaves the world better than he found it . . . Robert Louis Stevenson

Drop a pebble in the water, And its ripples reach our far; And the sunbeams dancing on them May reflect them to a star. Give a smile to someone passing. Thereby making his morning glad; It may greet you in the evening When your own heart may be sad. Do a deed of simple kindness; Though its end you may not see. It may reach, like widening ripples, Down a long eternity. Joseph Norris
