A PRIZE-WINNING TOAST.
Kansas City Man Wins With
"The Soul of the Toast."
Walter N. Foster, 1320 East Twenty-fourth street, of this city, is the winner in the Toast and Sentiment contest for the month of July, conducted by What to Eat, published in Chicago. Mr. Foster's contribution is entitled "The Soul of the Toast." These toasts may be old or new, original or copied. The winner's toast is as follows:
"It isn't so much what you say,
Or the word -- that is heard;
It's the spirit within and the way
That the heartstrings are stirred.
It isn't so much what you drink,
Nor the how -- nor the where,
It's the truth, in the things that you think
That is fair -- that is rare.
It isn't the drink in the bowl,
With its flow cheer you so,
It's the radiant glow of the soul
Of the toast -- don't you know.
--From Over the Nuts and Wine
