"It is no wonder that after-dinner speaking in America is of higher degree of excellence than that of any other land, when we find a host of prominent men and women who graciously drop their daily work long enough to write for us some bit of verse or prose that makes us either smile or sigh, but always goes to the heart."
Contains the first printing of Baum's poem 'Smile'.
