I taught them the goodness of loving, The beauty of nature and art; They taught me the goodness of loving, The beauty that lies in the heart; ' And I prize more than lessons of knowledge The lessons I learned in my schools— The warm hearts that met me at morning And left me at the four o’clock hour. I love the instructions .of knowledge, The teachings of nature and art; But more than all others the lessons That come from an innocent heart. And still to be patient and loving And'trustful, I hold as a rule. For I was so taught by the children Of the beautiful village of ours* OIL BURNER SERVICE AND SUMMER CLEANOUTS Make Your Arrangements Now Before The Fall Rush A. G.
