Short verses for autographs:
Whene'er a noble deed is wrought,
Whene'er is spoken a noble thought,
Our hearts in glad surprise
To higher levels rise.
- Violet Daniels
There is so much good in the worst of us,
And so much bad in the best of us,
That it behoves us
To speak the least of any of us.
- B. Smyth, Rathdown Street
Let us then be up and doing,
With a heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labour and to wait.
I. Webb
Do what you can,
Be what you are.
Shine like a flower,
If you cannot be a star.
Ethel Croker
May bad fortune follow you
all your days,
But never catch up with you.
N. Cox
True friends, like diamonds,
Are precious and rare;
False ones, like autumn leaves,
Are found everywhere.
G. B. How
I wish you happiness and health,
All the wealth you need;
Friends in plenty, tried and true,
What more is there I could wish for you.
S. D. Owens
When you are married and at the tub,
Think of me with every rub,
And if the suds be very hot,
Render away and forget-me-not.
N. White
Ancient Eve gave man the apple;
Modern Eve gives man the pip.
L. White
Here is to the Train
That goes on wheels
And never runs into danger.
Here is to the girl
That sticks to a boy
And never goes out
With a stranger.
Daisy Smith
Girls put your trust in no man,
Not even in a brother.
If you want to love -
Love one another.
L. Papworth
May you be happy
All the days of your life
Get a good husband
And make a good wife.
Violet Smith
Mary had a little watch,
She swallowed it one day,
And now she takes Beecham's Pills
To pass the time away.
S. Smith
Two's company. There were three:
The maid, the kitchen lamp and he;
Two's company, so no doubt
That's why the wise old lamp went out.
