Kodiak Kapsules—
(Continued From Page 5)
Til they scarcely know who is
their mother.
And another thing you’ll never
see —
A monk build a fence 'round a
cocoanut tree
And let the cocoanuts go to
waste.
Forbidding all other monks a
taste.
Why. if I'd put a fence around a
tree.
Starvation would force you to
steal from me.
Here's another thing a monk
won’t do —
Go out at night and get on a
stew.
Or use a gun or a club or knife
To take some other monkey’s
life.
Yes. Man descended — the or
nery cuss — _
But. brother, he didn't descend
from us!”
The future is merely a reflec
lion of today’s acts and deeds.
