He says an editor is always unpopular

a red COW, and Jim didn't mention it.
Another fairly raved because he told
the editor chat his baby said 'Da. da,

Jim never published word of it. He
was too d stuck up. The prohibit
tionists said that jim favored the sa-

cause Mr.. Slocuin was in favor of en-

no bald-headed man should be presi

because we we're not red-headed; an
other thought we felt too big In @

spoil us. The A. p. A. were mad be
cause Ed McGinnis helped us. An

Wake her with the voice of cannon-glve
her colors to the morn,
Make the day right glorious that saw the
nation born:
Born to life supernll like the bird OF
storied fame
From the ashes OF dead empires sprinss
her altar's sacred flame.
How bright the skies above herl How
fair her broad domainsl
How rich the warm life current that
courses through her veinsl
Her young brow fronts the nations with
a promise half divine
From the frozen hills Of Norway to the
lands of oil and wine;
And Teuton, Celt and Saxon, bowed down
with toll and care,
With longing eyes look westward and
bless her unaware.
Woke her with the voice of cannon-hlng
her colors to the breeze.
From her mountains, and her cities, and
her ships upon the seas;
And wreathe her shrine with garlands,
and crown her brows with bay,
IT'S the nation's hour of glory. and Free
dom's natal day.
