Evening Republican, Volume 23, Number 154, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 26 June 1920 — WHAT “PEP" IS. [ARTICLE]

WHAT “PEP" IS.

Vigor, vitality, vim and punch* That’s pep! The courage to act oa a sudden hunch « That's pop! The nerve to tackle the hardest thing, With feet that climb and hands that cling, A heart that never forgets to sing— That's pep! Sand and grit in a concrete base— f That's pep! ' Friendly smile on an honest face— That’s pep! The spirit that helps when another's down. That kpows how to scatter the blackest frown, That loves its neighbor and loves its town— That’s pep! \ To say "I will’’—for you know you That’s pep! To look for the beet in every man— That’s pep! To meet each thundering knockout blow, And come back with a laugh because you know Ton’ll get the best of the whole darned show— THAT'S PEP! —Grace G. Bostwick In Asheville (N. C.) Push.
