BE THE BEST OF WHATEVER YOU ARE If you can’t be a pine Ob the top of the hill, Be a scrub In the valley— But be the beat little scrub By Ihe side of the rill, Be a bush if you can’t be a tree. We can’t bi captains, We’ve got to be crew, There’s something for all of us here. There’s Mg work to do, And there’s lesser to do, And the task you must do is near. If you can’t be a highway, Just be a trail. If you can’t be the sun—Be a star. It isn’t by size That you win or you fail, Be the best of whatever you are. —Douglas Malloch HAPPY BELATED SSTH BIRTHDAY Belated but happy 96th birthday greetings are extended to Ms. Annie Green of 4 Chatham Terrace who observed another birthday on Mon day, April IS.
