Inside Cover: In center of page a short essay on "Success" and
surrounded by short poems.
"I pray thee Dear God
For power nor fame
All that I ask is
To live without shame.
A life filled alike
With joy and sorrow
Living each day to
Fear not the Morrow.
Mary W. Miller
"Dignity is one thing that cannot be preserved in alcohol."
"Here's to the Chaperone!"
May she learn from Cupid
Just enough blindness
To be sweetly stupid."
"Ain't No Use.
Ain't no use in loving
It's a dirty shame
You just having scraps and fusses
And the girl's always to blame,
Nothing gained
Ain't no use in eating
Just pain
Ain't no use in kissing
He'll tell,
Ain't no use in nothing,
Oh, Hell. |

Conversation is but carving!
Give no more to every guest
Than he's able to digest.
Give him always of the prime
And but a little at a time.
Carve to all but just enough,
Let them neither starve nor stuff.
And that you may have your due
Let your neighbor carve for you.

"When Things Go Wrong" : "
I count it best. When things go wrong.
To hum a tune and sing a song:
A heavy heart means sure defeat,
But joy is victory replete.
If skies are cloudy, count the gain,
New life depends upon the rain;
The cuckoo carols loud and long
When clouds hang low and things go wrong.
When things go wrong, remember then
The happy heart had strength of ten;
Forget the sorrow sing a song --
It makes all right when things seem wrong.
