I am happy today just 'cause the sun is warm and bright!
There's a chicken on a cook'n, an' my houn' dog there in sight
Is a snapp'n flies and wigglin' of his long and friendly tail!
So I guess there's nuth'n ails me—an' I hain't a goin' to wail—
Jist because some things don't suit me every time I think a think,
Of the way my wealth has acted and how come I'm on the blink;
For I know things might be worser ... an' the sun refuse to shine!
An' the flowers might lose their sweetness, or the birds not sing so
fine.
'Tisn't gold so much I'm cravin' as it is the love of friends
Pourin' 'n on me with gladness down a trail that never ends !
They who see the good that's in me, and for kinks don't give a durn!
Knowin' each soul has its portion, an' we got to live an' learn.
So we're happy with our hoecake, an' our gravy, an' our dog!
As, we sit here 'neath this live-oak scribbli* on a fallen log—
'Bout the good things comin' to us; givin' thanks for those we got;
Sich as friends, an' birds, an' roses ... an' thev help us out a lot.

WE SAY IT with SERVICE
THE BOOSTING SPIRIT.
If you live in Minnesota thaP'S
the place for you to boost! If
you live in South Dakota, that's
the finest place to roost! If in
Idaho you're stranded and you've
nowhere else to go, you can sing
that sweet old melody, '"Way
Out In Idaho" If mayhap
you are in Kansas where those
cyclone caves abound, sweetly
smile as you crawl in one, thank-
ing God you're safe and sound...
There are other climes through-
out the world no doubt are won-
derous fair, but the clime for you
to boost for it the one you
breathe it's air! Hence my low
and sinful brother, don't forget
as you go 'long, that your spirit
needs the patter of Love's opti-
mistic song. Whether up in icy
Greenland or in tropic's summery
clime, if you knock instead of
boost it you're not worth a punc-
tured dime. For the man who
functions rightly in this earthly
vale of tears, is a booster for his
homeland every moment of his
years. Every corner of this lit-
tle U. S. A., finds something
good! where a man will be suc-
Keeps on sawing
cessful if he
wood. He of discontented spirit
cannot buckle down to biz'! while
the one constructed rightly finds
success right where he is. We
are prone to see the glimmer of a
brighter hope elsewhere, so we
start in chasing rainbows 'till
we're lost in dark despair. There
are blessings all around us if our
spirit keeps its poise! but the
man with roving habit can b
shriek a direful noise—'till
cess evades his presence ?"

structed to say the least and we
aro ^sTsonally o£ten nonplussed
and even ashamed while trying
to analyze the subtile processes
of our mind—if any, and just
now caught ourself wondering
in a decidedly friendly spirit if
Judge Feather's stomach still
protrudes like it used to do.
LIKE TO TRY IT.
Some people seem to fret and stew
When income tax installment's due!
But we—I do not think I'd whine
If it took a million to pay mine,
BENEDICTION.
We wish a happy and prosper-
ous new year to everybody on
earth, and to them who love us
give all that we are and have;
fleas included.
