ORDINARY PEOPLE
There ore ordinary people in. the ordinary places Who <jo about their hum-drum jobs With smiles upon their faces. Who do the dull and tedious things. The irksome and the small, And do not ask for any thanks, And make no fuss at all. f think ice need to give to them Shore grateful Urauks and praise, Itecause they make this life more sweet And beautify our days. The least that we can offer those Who smooth our pathway here Is a little word of gratitude, Encouragement and cheer. M’eVc so prone to take for granted All the self-effacing graces Of the ordinary people Who make bright life's dreary places. MARY EVERSLEY.
