On keeping bright home life, so rife.

And though 1t never lacked for cheek,
Its type got better for the eyes.
Tire town has grown from year TO year
And we all know the JOURNAL tried,
For people full Of zeal and cheer
TO make the town the peoples pride.
The years have gone. sun followed sun,
Our heads grow white, our eyes

We've had our toll, our grief. our fun,
And yet the JOURNALS full of vim.
