Kentucky Irish American. (Louisville, Ky.) 1898-1968, 1899-01-07


Looks fore and aft to scan the "Tattler;''
There's no mistaking the reason why
The other columns are somewhat dry.
Were't not for your sweet balms and
cedars
The Louisville Times would have few
readers;
The Britons are Landed as our dear
cousins
Merely to please few half-dozens.
Goebel and Taylor, the l.. and N,
Whallen and Weaver, the Aldermen
We're bored to death with all its non
sense,
But to your bright column we watt oui
incense.
1t carries one off to the higher spheres
To the glowing domain of prophets, seers
So do not tell me your head goes whizz
Because of that gentlest. faintest buzz.
Kindly speech and generous smile
Will many the ills of life beguile;
A dulcet voice and heart that's true
Pain and rancor will oft undo.
Here's TO the singer of sunny love
To the verse which of melody has full
store,
To the face that is radiant with gladstone
smile,
Whatever the pain of the heart mean.
