WITHOUT A SMILE
You are
Like bread without the spreadin’,
Like a puddin’ without sauce,
Like a mattress without beddin’,
Like a cart without a hoss,
Like a door without a latchstring,
Like a fence without a stile,
Like a dry and barren creek bed,
Is a face without a smile!
Like a house without a dooryard,
Like a yard without a flower,
Like a clock without a mainspring.
That will never tell the hour;
A thing that sort o’ makes yo’ feel
A hunger all the while—
Oh, the saddest sight that ever was
Is a face without a smile!
So smile and don’t fergit to smile,
An’ smile, an’ smile ag’in;
’Twill loosen up the cords o’ care,
An’ ease the weight o’ sin;
’Twill help yo' on the longest road,
An’ cheer yo’ mile by mile;
An’ so, whatever is your lot,
Jes’ smile, an’ smile, an’ smile.

Mrs. Lamar Withdraws
From Race
Of special interest to the U. D.
C. throughout the South is the
announcement that Mrs. W. D.
Lamar, of Macon, has withdrawn
from the race of president gener
al. Mrs. Lamar is a brilliant and
capable woman and her hosts of
friends and admirers regret that
she withdraws from the race,
even on such unselfish grounds.
Mrs. Lamar’s card to the U. D.
C. chapters is as follows:
Macon, Ga., August. 2, 1915
To the United Daughters of the
Confederacy:
Since early in June I have
striven to settle a vexed question
and have finally determined,
against Miss Rutherford’s wishes,
to withdraw from the race for
president general, basing this det
cision upon the fact recently
learned that Miss Rutherford
is committed not to refuse the of
fice as historian general, if it
should be offered her and because
I know that her election for a
fifth term is certain if Georgia
has no candidate for president
general. Therefore despite the
fact that enough votes are
pledged to elect me on the first
ballot. I will not jeapordizeMiss
Rutherford’s election by remain
ing in the race. I rejoice that
Georgia has been so greatly hon
ored already, and I wish to thank
the many states that have fos
tered my candidacy, but my
sense of fairness forbids Geor
gia’s claiming three officers on
the executive board.
My work for U. D. C. causes
will be as earnest as ever and
my zeal, unhampered by official
responsibilities, will be more ser
viceable to the organization.
Yours to command,
E. D. B. Lamar,
Pres. Georgia Division U. D. C.
