We miss your presence and its cheer, And often wish that you were here: You kept the hearth so bright and warm Against thi chilly winter storm. Uplighted with your pleasant cheer Oh how we wish that you were here; The scenes are pretty as of old. They still their sweet contentment hold, And natural charms would glow For us if we again y ur face might see. Earth has lost its look of gladness, H- ,iven seems to us more bright, Sinn the spirit of dear father Took its happy homeward flight. Tis hard to break the tender cord When love has bowed the heart, Tis hard so hard t speak the woris A’e must forever part.” Margaret Waite* s

They called it the Pursuit of Happiness

' * 'r 't'hey TELL you it’s over there, where the guard stands on watch. So you walk expectantly over the marble floor, hearing your footsteps shatter the hush and the quiet all about you. And then, suddenly, there you are—peering at it. And there are the famous signatures— John Hancock. Charles Carroll, of Carrollton. Samuel Adams. Button Gwinnett. The words, scrawled on parchment, are hard to read at first. But you know by heart the opening paragraphs—remember them from your history book in the sixth grade. "We hold these truths to be self-evi-dent, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness^ You’ve heard those words, you’ve seen them—many times. But somehow, standing there before that wrinkled parchment, you become conscious of meanings that used to be only sounds in the music of the language. Those men who signed that document called it “the pursuit of Happiness.” The right that evetjy man was to enjoy in this new country whs the right to pursue happiness. To roll up his sleeves and go after it and strugglt and win-it with his own two hands an< his wits. And because the people who first heard those wi rds understood them-be-cause they real zed their right was one of pursuit—they went out with strength and courage and faith to hew quarries out of Vermont rock, to dig mines in the West Virginia earth, to build mills along die rivers of North Carolina. ' Their sons, too, understood — and sucked oil out of the sand and harnessed the power in steam and welded one end of the country to the other with rails of steel Because of that right-and because they understood it—the people who came to this country, and their sons, made it the richest, most powerful, most restless nation on earth.
Today, there are those who voice other words. Words not of courage or strength or faith. Words of despair. We are too wise, too old, too civilized, they say, to pursue happiness. We have inherited the right to sit back and have happiness brought to us—decked out and trussed up like a roasted turkey on a silver platter. A dead turkey. The words they speak are not new words. They have been spoken in other nation? throughout history, and people
hearing them have been lulled hy their golden promise into complacency and submission. And slavery. They are words that ought to be looked at for their meaning, not just listened to for their music—as all words ought to be scrutinized, including those that have become so familiar, so much a part of our lives, that their wisdom is likely to be lost. So k ng as the true meaning of those earlier words is understood, the rights that they proclaim will never be lost.
