Lessons . . .

. . . for the RICH . . .


(from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milton_S._Hershey)
". . . On May 25, 1898, (Milton S.) Hershey married Catherine "Kitty" Sweeney, an Irish-American Catholic girl from Jamestown, New York. She brought gaiety, wit and warmth into his life. By all reports, their life together was very happy.[4] Since the couple could not have children, they decided to help others, establishing the Hershey Industrial School with a Deed of Trust in 1909. Catherine died of tuberculosis in 1915 and Hershey never remarried. In 1918, Hershey transferred the majority of his assets, including control of the company, to the Milton Hershey School Trust fund, to benefit the Industrial School. The trust fund has a majority of voting shares in The Hershey Company, allowing it to keep control of the company. In 1951, the school was renamed the Milton Hershey School. The Milton Hershey School Trust also has 100% control of Hershey Entertainment and Resorts Company, which owns the Hotel Hershey and Hersheypark, among other properties. He took great pride in the growth of the school, the town, and his business. He placed the quality of his product and the well-being of his workers ahead of profits. He was part of a forward-looking group of entrepreneurs in this country and abroad who believed that providing better living conditions for their workers resulted in better workers…Milton Hershey conceived of building a community that would support and nurture his workers. Developing the community became a lifelong passion for him. In 1935, Hershey established the M.S. Hershey Foundation, a private charitable foundation that provides educational and cultural opportunities for Hershey residents. The foundation supplies funding for three entities: the Hershey Museum and Hershey Gardens, the Hershey Theatre and the Hershey Community Archives. The founding of the Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center occurred when the board of the trust went to the Dauphin County Orphans Court with the cy-près doctrine (cy près is a French phrase meaning "As close as possible"). It was a gift from the Milton Hershey School Trust to the people of Pennsylvania, with an initial endowment of $50 million and only one restriction—the hospital had to be built in Hershey. The hospital is a teaching hospital, with an annual budget exceeding the initial construction cost. . ."

Catch . . .


She said it was almost time 
For me to go
I said I was feeling fine 
And waxing so poetic
I was the silver-tongued devil
At least in my own eyes
How I lied
Oh how I tried

I want to catch the brass ring
Before it passes me by
I want to catch the brass ring
It's something that I just
Have to try
Please don't ask me why

I said I'm not gonna whine
Because I know
About the way they operate
And where they go for breakfast
In this exclusive and privileged world
You will find me
Sometime soon
Sometime soon

I want to catch the brass ring
Before it passes me by
I want to catch the brass ring
It's something that I just
Have to try
Please don't ask me why

Would you ask a child 
What he likes about candy
Would you ask a dog not to bite
Would you ask the sun not to shine
Or the stars not to 
Twinkle from their heights

Everybody's not the same
You ought to know
Whether they strictly be mundane
Are they the life of the party
In the confusion 
I'm easily forced to my corner
Of the room
In the gloom

I want to catch the brass ring
Before it passes me by
I want to catch the brass ring
It's something that I just
Have to try
Please don't ask me why

The Bitter End . . .

You never want to have to hear a word
From me again
Never want to have to see my face
At your door
If there's so much as the mention of
My name
You can feel an uncontrollable
Fit of pain

I'm the one
That you said
You would love
Til the bitter end

This must really be
This must really be the end
Nothing could be fitter
This must really be
This must really be the end
Make no mistake it's bitter

You never want us to be seen again
In public places
Can't explain it to another friend
How it goes
You say there's torment that you feel inside
From many things
I can tell you that I still don't know
What that means

Long ago
We were friends
Far removed
From this bitter end

This must really be
This must really be the end
Nothing could be fitter
This must really be
This must really be the end
Make no mistake it's bitter

There's no candy coating
To make it go down easier
Not so simple to digest
No bright colors and no
Exotic flavors sweetening
What you see is what you get

You never want to have to hear a word
From me again
Never want to have to see my face
At your door
If there's so much as the mention of
My name
You can feel an uncontrollable
Fit of pain

With one fell
Swoop you sent
Me direct to the bitter end

This must really be
This must really be the end
Nothing could be fitter
This must really be
This must really be the end
Make no mistake it's bitter
