Clean Up and Paint Up." NEWS - OF INTEREST IN THE — SOCIAL REALM INVICTUS Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods there be, For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud Under the bludgeoning of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the horror of the shade, And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how straight the gate, How charged with punishment the scroll, 1 am the master of my Fate, I am the Captain of my Soul. —Henley. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY “To trust each other more, To love each other well, To plant a rose beside some door That brings the spring’s first spell. To smooth another’s way, To calm another’s fear, To turn another’s gloomy day Into a day of cheer — That’s why we’re here!” —Exchange.
