You though lead your communities and most bear a town s burdens. You slave for the common good. You, my peers, take no credit and seldom receive such. You put your life on hold. Are on call twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
Vacations are rare, sleepless night s common and pay scarce.
If the race is lost by another, you face the music. You are professionals. You are kind and sunny and get gray hair and wrinkles and ulcers and headaches for the valuable job you do. You lead, seldom follow are always judges. Your personal life if fodder for gossip and higher standards enforced.
