Boost

Don't sit supinely on your roost But come along and help us boost For better things of every kind And leave your kicking clothes behind. Oh let us boost for better streets And softer beds and longer sheets For smoother lawns and better lights And shorter winded blatherskites; For finer homes and larger trees

For bats and boosts and bumble bees: For shorter hours and longer pay For fewer thistles in our hay; For better grub and bigger pies, For two more moons to light the skies; And let the wolves of war be loosed

On every guy who doesn't boost.

Golfing History

What is the history of the game of golf?

No man knoweth. It appears, however, that they played it back in Bible days, because we find Solomon saying in the Old Testament: "A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.',

And they're doing it still. History tells us that in t45Z golf had taken such a hold in Scotland that people were forbidden to play it because it was interfering with the needed practice of archery, the national method of defense.

The oldest golf course and club on earth is that of Blackheath, near London, England, and dates from 160g.

A Morning Thought

The thing that numbs the heart is this: That men cannot devise, Sorne scheme of life to banish fear, That lurks in most men's eyes.

Fear of the lack of shelter, food, And fire for winter's cold, Fear of their children's lacldng these, This in a world so old.

-James Norman Hall.

The Test Of A Man

The place to take the test of a man is not the forum or the field, not the market place or the amen corner, but at his own fireside. There he lays aside his mask and you may judge whether he be imp or angel, king or cur, hero or humbug. I care not what the world says of him, whether it crown him with bays or pelt him with bad eggs; I care never a copper what his reputation or religion may be; if his babes dread his homecoming and his better half has to swallow her heart every time she has to ask him for a five dollar bill, he's a fraud of the first water, even though he prays night and morn until he's black in the face, and howls hallelujah till he shakes the eternal hills. But, if his children rush to the front gate to meet him, and love's own sunshine illumines the face of his wife when she hears his footstep, you may take it for granted that he's true gold, for his home's a heaverl and the humbug never gets that close to the great white throne of God. f can forgive much in that fellow mortal who would rather make men swear than women weep; who would rather have the hate of the whole he-world than the contempt of his wife-who would rather call anger to the eyes of a King, than fear to the face of a child.-Wm. Cowper Brann.

Water is a wonderful blessing

Good for washing necks and ears, Just the thing for lakes and rivers, Wonderful 'round concrete piers. Nice to run beneath the bridges, Swell for making rain and ink, Water is a wondrous blessingBut an awful sorry drink.
