When things don't go to suit you,
('TIs tho enso In ovory town),
Don't Just sit down lu Idleness
And sit you thoro nnd frown,
Ho up and over doing,
Do n llvo ono, niako things hum,
And then I think most surely
You'll seo tho good times coino.
'TIs an ndngo old but truo
Thnt chickens como homo to roost,
And If you would prove tho truth
therein,
Why I would say, Just boost.
If your neighbor sulks and frowns
When asked to loud a hand,
Do not glvo up despairingly,
They will not nil turn you down.
For most grown tips, llko children
Havo a vory careless way,
Of putting off tho duties'
That should bo dono today;
So you that nro firm nnd loyal
' Ho a booster through and through
And thou porhaps you will seo
, What tho rost of them will do.
I
For what Is tho uso of living
j If wo can't holp things along,
This old round world of ours
Would not bo worth a song.
, Yes, what Is tho uso of living,
j If wo nlwnys have to frown,
So wako ui) nnd bo a booster,
Hoost for your own homo town.
