THE GRUMBLER Have you noticed that people who grumble At each bit of trouble eft strife Are the ones who should really be thankful For the good things they get out of life? But instead of just counting their blessings And thanking the Good Lord above They go through life fussing and fuming With no time out for brotherly love. On the other hand, those who have nothing, And whose chances of fortune are dim Have a tolerant smile for the grumbler And thank Heaven that they are not him. "THE MAGRATH TRADING CO. LTD."
