MANY happy returns of the day"
Is what most Of the people always
But please allow me to add something
more.
For I have a great many thoughts in
store.
Three-quarters of a century this man
has lived,
And can we truthfully say he has
never fibbed:
Well, we won't be too sure, but for
a fact we know
That this good mans virtues would
make a long row.
We know of his justice and his love
of what's right;
We know that his duty has been done
with his might;
We know of the poor he has always
befriended
And all this will be done till his life
is ended.
A man who lives to be seventy-five
Must certainly be most wondrous
wise:
For think of all the experience he's
In all phases of life, both good and
bad.
This man of great wisdom has been
asked to advise;
His judgment been sought for by
even the wise:
His influence brought to bear upon
those who were weak,
And always a hearty handclasp to the
diffident and weak.
How much can be produced from menu
orys vast store

In his travels to far countries in days
of yore;
From the North to the South, and the
East to the West,
And across the deep waters, seeing
only the best.
How this mans to be envied in wealth
of good things,
For he has the riches which money
ne'er brings,
His home and his children, with the
grandchildren, too,
Whose love and loyalty keep breaking
forth anew.
The trials. the sorrows, the hardships
to bear.
We feel we can say he has had his
full share:
And again the pleasures, the jolly
good times
Have all been INDUCED in along many
lines.
There are many more things I could
easily say,
But, good-by to the past, and welcome
each day:
With pleasures and happiness beside
thee always,
And many many happy returns of
