Below Par Az Poetry.

The Rev. Mr.. Smith. who was n class

than "Amerca," and few as ibid. That

reflects more credit upon that Implement

commonplace and often meaningless. Most
of the verses consist Of reiterations of the
statement that the singer is singing,
which may be necessary to establish the
fact, but cannot be considered as either
important or inspiring. Has any one in
singing the words ever pictured to him

or how rocks could their silence break?
