His was not a brilliant style, his was not a forceful way, But he had a gentle smile, and a kindly word to say. Never arrogant, or proud, on he went with manner mild; Never quarrelsome or loud, just as simple as a child. Honest, patient, brave and true, this he loved from day to day, Doing what he found to do in a cheerful sort of way. Wasn’t one to boast of gold, or helittle it with sneers, Didn’t change from hot to cold, kept his friends throughout the years; Sort of man you like to meet, any time or any place, There was always something sweet, and refreshing in his face. Sort of man you'd like to be, balanced well, and truly square; Patient in adversity. Generous when his skies were fair, never iied to friend or foe, Never rash in word or deed. Quick to come and slow to go in a neigbor’s time of need. Never rose to wealth or fame, simply lived, and simply died, But the passing of his name, left a sorrow far and wide; Not for glory he’d attained, nor for what he had of self, Where the friends that he had gained, but for what he was himself.

That is exactly what it is. It is placed in your home so that you may check the amount of your pur- chase of gas and keep track of any increase or decrease in the use of this household necessity. Ps Read your meter yourself and be convinced that you are getting what you pay for. It is easy to do if you follow these instructions: Get from you last bill the date on which your meter was read the last time. On the same day of the current month, or the day the meter reader calls, look at your meter dials and do three things: First—Ignore the small dial at the top. It is used only in tests. Second—Reading from left to right, put down the smaller of the two figures next to the hand on each large dial. On the dials shown above these are 516. : Third—Add two ciphers to the figures taken from the dial (which makes in this case 51600) and from these figures substract last month’s meter readin® as shown on your last gas bill. The result will be the cubic feet of gas used during the month.
