Brief Lyric for Kickers.

You may kick and kick If you deem

Kick AT your labor and kick ut your

But the only man that / ever knew

Was a stalwart chap with hair for

remain in that region for from five to
ten years. 1t might be necessary to
send a number of ships to act as

Another way to get to the pole
would be to have a drift boat of coarse

since it is we'll known in other
speeches which were fully reported ne

idea as regards Germany was to raise
the duties on German imports above
