THE ACRES AID THE HANDS.

''The earth is the Lords, and the fullness there
Said Gods most holy word
The water hath fish and the land hath flesh,
And the air hath MANY a bird
And the soil Is teeming DER all the earth,
And the earth has nunberless lands;
Yet millions Of hands rant acres,
Whiie millions Of deres tcast hands
Sunlight and breezes, and gladstone flowers,
Are over the earth spread wide;
And the good God gave these gifts to men
To men who on earth abide;
Yet thousands are toiling in poisonous gloom,
And shackeled with iron bands
While millions Of hands wants acres
And millions OF acres want hands.
Never a foot hath the poor man here,
To plant with grain Of corn;
And never plot where his child may Gull
Fresh flowers IN the dewy morn.
The soil lies fallow-the woods grow rank;
Yet idle the poor man stands
Oh millions Of hands want acres
And millions Of acres want hands
'Tis writ that aye shall not muzzle the OK
That treadeth out the corn!n
But behold. We shackle the poor mans hands,
That have all eaFth's burdens borne,
The land Is the gift Of bounteous God
And TO labor His word commands
Yet millions Of hands want acres
And millions OF acres want hands!
Who hath ordained the few should hoard
Their millions Of useless gold?
Ana ROB the earth Of its fruits and flowers,
While proftless soil they holdl
VINO hath ordained that parchment scroll
Snan fence round miles Of lands,-
w hen millions of hands want acres
And millions Of acres want hands
lis glsring LIE on the face Of day
This robbery Of mems rights
lis lie that the word Of the Lord disowns-
lis curse that burns and blightS.
And twill bum and blight till the people rise,
And swear, while they break their bands,
That ths hands shall henesforth haze acres,
And tbs acres heRestorth haze hands.
