ATTAINMENT
(Bv W. E. Wimmer)
Strive for a competence, use all your
force.
Do not grow discouraged and do not
waft;
Do not miss an opportunity to accomp
lish,
And do not let circumstances change
your fate.
In your own self lies attainment.
Through your
Efforts, combined with others, you
reach the goal,
So do not hesitate or falter, keep on
going,
Do not lose a moment though the labor
tax your soul.
Listen to the song: of progress, set to
ambition's tune,
Catch the spirit of the music, keeping
step to it each day,
And wlile journeying along: life's in
oline, ever keep In view
The mark at which you are aiming,
that you may
Not mist tho target of your hopes. Do
not look
Backward o'er the graveyard, keep
? moving straight ahead;
The future holds the joys of achieve
ment?of success;
Strive today and tomorrow, the past
you know is dead.
Dominate environment, wear a smile
of cheer; love largely,
And have no aim that d?es not chord
with universal right.
Attainment is yours if you have faith
and persevere,
All discouragement and failure will
vanish out of sight.
