COMSTOCK HIGH SCHOOL: 6
Parchment lost to Comstock 6-0. Injuries make this season difficult. As a special favor, Rudyard Kipling wrote the poem " If --" about our season. And self-discipline. I especially like the line, "Or being hated, don’t give way to hating…" Below are excerpts.
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise…
If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same…
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Panther loved one!
