Section 6 makes it the duty of
the State officer to commence com

spasms.
It makes a returning officer OF

as under the old law.
It requires tickets to be printed
on uniform paper.

Nv lived some thirty years, my boys,
And had my share of pain .
But still | haze ne fears my boys,
Nor sigh not. nor complain.
Yet as long as I car, my boys,
I'll laugh at fortunes frown,
And help my ftllow-man, my boys,
Whene'er he's broken down.

Never hit a man when he's down my boys
But lend him a helping hand;
A smile is worth More than IL trown, my
boys,
And q true heart mere than land.
I've lived some Thirty years. my boys,
Quite long enough to know
Kind words will bring the tears, my boys,
Where long they've ceased to flow.
Then let your words be kind, my buys,
Your hearts be kinder still;
And let your neighhor lind, my boys,
You1l help him with a will.
Never hit a man, &c.
The rich man with his gold, my boys,

But mnst be growing old, my boys,

Not all his boasting wealth, my boys.
From care can set Kim free,
And if he's minus health, my boys,
We're richer far tL.an he.
Never hit a man, &c.
So this advice l give, my boys,
To rule your future by;
Learn joyfully to live, my boys,
And hopefully to die.
Look always on the brighter side,
And keep this end i'll view:

They should do unto you"
