' ItEYTESVlLLE, (Phono 89) MISSOURI. 1 If You Would be a Man If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; ": If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, I And make allowance for their doubting too, ' . If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or, being hated, don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good or talk to wise. If you can dream and not make dreams your master, fl you can think and not make thoughts your aim, If you can meet with triumph and disaster, ' . . And treat those two impoetota ' just the same; If you can bear to have the truth you've spoken, Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, , . Or see the things you gave your life to broken. And turn and build them up again with worn-out tools. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue. Or walk with kings,- nor lose the common toach. If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you. If all men count with you. yet none too much. If you can fill each unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run. Yours is the earth and every thing that's in iU And. which is more, you'll be a man, my son. Kipling.
