and it is now ready for you to read
on the Book Tea shelf in the library.
Dale Carnegie says his book will
do these and many more things for
you:
1. “Get you out of a mental rut,
give you new thoughts, new visions,
and new ambitions.
2. Enable you to make friends
quickly and easily.
3. Increase your popularity.
4. Help you to arouse enthusiasm
among your associates.”
Don’t you think, then, that it would
be well worth reading and practicing
if it gained for you these priceless
assets?

Twice a day the postman comes.
Bent a little, with his pack.
Atlas stooped a trifle, too,
With the burden on his back.
Atlas never had to lift
Such a load as postmen do;
Atlas only bore a world—
Postmen carry heaven, too.
—From The Johnsonian.
