WE AND THE OTHERS
Puck

I pity that poor Mrs Jones;
She works herself to skin and bones!
Of course, in my case, I prefer
To be my own help, as it were
Old Mrs Johnson talks so loud
Whenever she is in a crowd!
To make my conversation…

Who was-champion coupler and a lightning fadder climber
He stirred the emulation of the boys to such a pitch,
They swore they'd win the tourna-…

NIGHT
5703
WITHIN the shelter of thy calm, Night,
I loose the tinselled vestures of the day,
With eager hands unbind and fling away
The cap and bells that made the crowd's delight,
The shallow mask that screened me from their sight
Deep…
Great-Grandma's Wedding
By Catherine Jewett

SWEET Great-grandma looks a saint,
With her white hair, and her quaint '
Broidered kerchief folded down
Primly o'er her satin gown,
As she tells in accents low,
Wonder tales of long ago,…
Which Road?
2015
If you could go back to the forks of the road
Back the long miles you have carried the load;
Back to the place where you had to de- cide
By this way or that through your life to abide;
Back of the grieving and back of the care,
Back…
Comrades

We from childhood played together,
My dear comrade Jack and 1:
We would Acht each other's battles,
To each other's aid we'd fly;
And in bowl's scrapes and troubles
You would find us ev'rywhere;
Where are went the other followed…
The Day Is Past and Gone

Theening shades appear: peari
Oh, may we all remember well
The night of death draws near
We iny our garments by
Upon our beds to rest: "64-3
So death will soon disrobe…

CHOLLIE

He was a youth of high degree,
His collar monstrous tall,
He lithped a pretty little lithp
And danced at every ball;
He ogled every girl he saw,
His nerve was mostly gall;
He had a bad cold in his head,
And that was all

In which he hopes to fiit about like swallows, here and there,
And look with cold contempt upon us crawling things below;
The only trouble with it…

Locating Uncle Joe

Our Uncle Joe a rover was; he loved to sail the sea
The far-off corners of the globe he sought with fervid glee
And so, to keep our minds at rest and calm our anxious fears,
He sent us postal cards -the kind they…

I wonder why some Pas have none,
And others have no many

And rich ones haven't any
The richest man I know in town
Has just one small boy only:
But pa says: Grel he pities him
In that big house…

A Failure
W, Broaway
1752
He failed? Perhaps but now he is at rest,
Cold, tired hands upon a quiet breast
Think only of him what is best
He failed? But you have laid him 'neath the sod;
The rest concerns himself and God
It is not yours…
Everyday Blindness

We seek for beauty on the height afar;
But on the earth it glimmers all the while:
'Tis in the garden where the roses aro; ""

We seek for wisdom in each solemn look
But aye,…

LOVING WORDS

Can'st thou, by any scrutiny of thine

Or know, by any demonstrated line
The points where joy and trouble interlace?
Dost then define a smile as all is well--
And frown determine that…
