No Guess Work Here.
All Ellsworth People Have TO do is
to Follow the Example Of Eel
low Citizens.

Facts are stubborn.
Some may be disputed,
None can be disproyed.
A fact is the opposite of fiction;
Is always hedged about with proof;
Has to stand the test of investigation;
Or it drifts to the realm of doubt
Investigate closely the following.
The closer the scrutiny the more con-
vincing the result.
An Ellsworth citizen speaks here;
Speaks from experience and conviction;
Relates facts, stubborn facts,
That may be disputed, but cannot be
disproved.
