Telephone 154 THE JOY OF LIFE it pi. d > A The j6y of life is living it, or 90 semes to me; In finding shackles on your wrists then struggling till you’re free: In seeing wrongs and righting them, in dreaming splendid dreams, Then toiling till the vision is as real as moving streams— Tl^e happiest mortal on the earth is he who ends his day, By leaving better than he found to bloom along the way. Were all things perfect' here there would be naught for man to do, If what is old were good enough we’d never need the pew, The only happy time of rest is that which follows strife, And rites some contribution made unto the joy of life— t The joy of life is living it and doing things of worth. In making bright and fruitful all the barren spots of earth, In facing odds and mastering them and rising from defeat— And making true what once was false, \ and what was bitter, sweet. For only he knows perfect joy whose little bit of soil Is richer ground than what it was when he t^egan. —Edgar A. Guest. thanksgiving for these many years of service and usefulness were: Mrs. H. A.
