 On the second page of the menu card was the following verse, written by Miss R. C. Mitchell, daughter of Joln s. Mitchell, of the HoIlenbeck, entitled the "Hassayampa River" Hassaya:npa, Queen of Waters. l"
 There Is magic in the name; It's a fascinating stream when all Is
 said,
 And everybody knows who has wan dered where it flows
 There's legend for each pebble in it's
 bed
 But, best of all, the story of the noble pioneers,
 ] Who hailed it good omen on their
 way.
 And those loyal men and true have i'm
 bibed it through and through
 With the Arizona spirit of today. For the Has sayampa's water is a
 blessing to the land Qn spite of shocking tales with
 which it's cursed
 That he ever after lies in a way to
 win first prize
 Who quaffs the Hassayampa to
 quench it's thirst) Salvation of the farmer. and the
 miners friend in need.
 It makes the man who drinks it brave and true,
 And no matter where he strays he'll
 come back to end his days In the land the Hassayampa wsnders through.
