CARVALHO Manager A DAY WORTHWHILE I count that day as wisely spent In which 1 do some good For someone who is far away Or shares my neigh borhood. A day devoted to the deed That lends a helping hand And demonstrates a willingness To care and understand. I long to be of usefulness In little ways and large Without a selfish motive And without the slightest charge. Because in my philosophy There never is a doubt That all of us here on earth Must help each other out. I feel that day is fruitful And the time is worth the while When I promote the happiness Of one enduring smile. -Author Unknown P.H. Tallman, Counselor DAIRY MART, INC.
