The Man Who's Worth While 'Tis easy enough to smile and be glad, When life goes along like a song, But the man who's worth while, Is the man who can smile, When everything goes dead wrong.

A wzugomr: Q - f 4 X 1 -Ruth: er V1 THE DAY WELL SPENT If you sit down at set of sun And count the good deeds you have done, And counting find One self-denying act, one word that eased the heart of him that heard, One glance most kind, that felt like sunshine where it went, Then count that day well spentg But if through all the livelong day You've eased no heart by yea or nayg If through it all you've nothing done that you can trace That brought sunshine to one face, No act so small that helped some soul and noth- ing cost, Then count that day as worse than lost. MORAL I just have room for the moral here, And this is the moral, stick to your sphere, But, if you insist, as you have that right, To spreading your wings to a loftier flight, The moral is: Take care how you light.
