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.

ing to young and old such advantages
as shall develop in them the largest

American citizens.
