half we plannd While I kept company with you Like fallen trees in cyclones track Lie the things I meant to do You pointed upward toward the heights Where men inscribe a name Men who give the best of life For the laurel wreath of fame With youths aspiring courage buoyed- I thought to do the same Traced with eyes full bright and strong The road seemed smooth and wide- I almost knew each turn it took Along the mountain side So we together started forth- With youths bright hopeforguide With trust in God and faith In man We plodded on our way Nor found the first days journey long- In the sunshine of that day Never thinking of the handicaps That in our pathway lay Nature was first to call a halt For hunger most men dread Its cravings must be satisfied Tho sublimest heights wo tread So we turnd from he road to the summit- To begin the fight for bread- Th pate was narrow and crowded Men jostled and pushed to the wall Their feeble and tardier brethren And heeded not their rail Every man for himself they said Only the good God Is for all I awakend from the sodden dream- To find tho sky oercast The joys that bloom in Pleasures glado Are not tho kind that last While you and I were dallying there Opportunity had passed Then doubt and fear assailed my mind Where only hope had been Emerging from the shadowed path- I sought you mid lifes din But ah my youth I missed you You had stayed behind with sin With nerveless hand I grasped my staff Still with your hopes imbued But trembling feet neer reached the height From which honor must be hewed While everywhere I turned the road With fainting hearts was strewed Tho years have flown time takes its toll My stalwart form bends low I still dwell on the mountain side Where you left me long ago- I could not gain the heights you planned My feet had grown so slow Failure is written on my brow- I see naught in the years ahead But work in the wearying treadmill Of tho daily fight for bread And to live in this harrowing struggle A man may as well bo dead I breathe no sigh for wasted years Tho in humble paths 1 plod- I mourn the wreck of childhoodfaith IJ That questioned not Its Gods But blindly trusting followed Where other feet had trod Still thought will turn from future dread Back to those other years And as memory lifts the curtain The dream face of youth appears Again I see visions of younger days Tho dimly as through tears 1 ma anti see my grandma and grand- pa Daniel THIS BOY WANTS A DOLL Dear Santa I have been a very good boy for the last twelve months I go to school now I want you to come to see ma

sweet spirit of my youth returnBut do not deem me true-

I have not done the half we planndWhile I kept company with you

Like fallen trees in cyclones trackLie the things I meant to do

You pointed upward toward the heightsWhere men inscribe a name

Men who give the best of lifeFor the laurel wreath of fame

With youths aspiring courage buoyed-I thought to do the same

Traced with eyes full bright and strongThe road seemed smooth and wide-

I almost knew each turn it tookAlong the mountain side

So we together started forth-With youths bright hopeforguide

With trust in God and faith In manWe plodded on our way

Nor found the first days journey long-In the sunshine of that day

Never thinking of the handicapsThat in our pathway lay

Nature was first to call a haltFor hunger most men dread

Its cravings must be satisfiedTho sublimest heights wo tread

So we turnd from he road to the summit-To begin the fight for bread-

Th pate was narrow and crowdedMen jostled and pushed to the wall

Their feeble and tardier brethrenAnd heeded not their rail

Every man for himself they saidOnly the good God Is for all

I awakend from the sodden dream-To find tho sky oercast

The joys that bloom in Pleasures gladoAre not tho kind that last

While you and I were dallying thereOpportunity had passed

Then doubt and fear assailed my mindWhere only hope had been

Emerging from the shadowed path-I sought you mid lifes din

But ah my youth I missed youYou had stayed behind with sin

With nerveless hand I grasped my staffStill with your hopes imbued

But trembling feet neer reached the heightFrom which honor must be hewed

While everywhere I turned the roadWith fainting hearts was strewed

Tho years have flown time takes its tollMy stalwart form bends low

I still dwell on the mountain sideWhere you left me long ago-

I could not gain the heights you plannedMy feet had grown so slow

Failure is written on my brow-I see naught in the years ahead

But work in the wearying treadmillOf tho daily fight for bread

And to live in this harrowing struggleA man may as well bo dead

I breathe no sigh for wasted yearsTho in humble paths 1 plod-

I mourn the wreck of childhoodfaithIJ That questioned not Its Gods

But blindly trusting followedWhere other feet had trod

Still thought will turn from future dreadBack to those other years

And as memory lifts the curtainThe dream face of youth appears

Again I see visions of younger daysTho dimly as through tears
