GETTING BACK
Wli'KK celling buck lo norinnlcc, a little at a time; tlic lion,
iltitis fade, the .lowilis flee, I lie tiroitcli becomes ii crime.
Tliis nmniiiiL' when I tools my boat to liave it bolt repined!, Hie
workman siiii.' n cheerful note, as to the task lie eliaseil. lie crawl
ed beneath my limiting car mid gnve tin- bolt a .slap, and smiled
llirontili all the praise and Inr Hint clustered on his map. 1
handed him two iron men. and when that sum was paid, ho blithely
said, "I'leasc come iitiiiiii I'm keen to j'et your trade." Some
weeks iio I sought his lair my horn refused to loot and for
my story of despair he didn't care a hoot. "I am not fixing
things today," lie said, with haughty scorn, "and you may take
your bus away and soak the doggone horn." I see n change of
attitude in artisan and clerk, and, with the old time pop imbued,
the boys get down lo work. And work's the cure 'for all the ills,
that jar the human tribe; it's better than Hit; choicest pills the
statesmen can prescribe. Let's all forget the ancient sores, the
ancient grief and pain; when all arc busy at their chores, Old
-Normalcy will reign.
