Story 41
Sage Counsel
Paige, your daddy's counsel is sage. He told you to start
studying at an early age. This means page after page, you
must turn so as to free your mind from ignorance's cage.
Someday, then, you might become a Senate page, later an
actress on stage. But in whatever you choose to engage, do
not measure success by your salary or wage. Let happiness
be the much better gauge.
Story 42
Jake's Wake
To keep busy Bob fed the duck and drake, George raked the lawn,
and Sarah baked a cake.
Their hard work had helped to keep their minds off Jake, but
good humor they could no longer fake. You see, Jake was bitten by a
poisonous snake. And now his friends have broken down in a tearful
quake, at the dead boy's wake.
