THE 1916 INSTANO A SONNET lU ' ilh apolog.es to MihonI When I consider nov5 my life is spent Day in, day out in tKis great I. N. S., I cannot help but sigh and men confess When m ) ambitions, wnetner tney be bent To show atnletic prowess, or present My knowledge wise to those whom God shall bless, Are hurt by each of vJork and carelessness, — I am to blame. But courage to pre ' ent A murmer, whispers soon. Remember, child, ' Tis only they who xCork with might and main That turn aside the cold black hand of Fate. Stand well, be strong and firm, yet kind and mild. And truthful as the simple country sx ain; The)) cannot vCin who simpl stand and vJait. M. G.
