"THEN HAIL! ALL HALL"
BY Anna Nj. Smith Carleton, Keowee,
S. G.

(Written in Reference to March 4th,
'09.}
See, calmly and promptly, at close of
his reign,
He steps from the visible throne.
And lays by the toga, devoid of least
stain,
While all hearts, but his, make their
moan:
Our Roosevelt!
'Tis not "le roi est mort, vive lie roll"
in this case,
For virile, and earnest, and true,
He still lives enthroned in our
hearts "by the grace
OF God King" forever anew
Our Roosevelt!
The man who infallibiy chooses the
right
Instinctively turns from the rwong;
Whose deeds will tllumine with radi-
ance bright
The pages of his'try and song
Our Roosevelt!
Twas he wooed back the sweet angel
Of peace
When 'frighted by wars grim alarm,
And gave to the nations O happy sur.
cease
OF sorrow and pain by his charm.
Our Roosevelt!
IT'S he whose true soul, being guilt
less of lust,
Metes justice to friend and to foe;
Who rescues kitten, then pulls
down trust,
Graft. usury, scandal, lays low.
Our Roosevelt!
The loved of his nation, the honored
Of earth,
This honor unsought by our Teddy;
Pure triumph Of tact and sound
moral worth
When circumstance called he was
ready
Our Roosevelt!
"The man of mistakes?" Nay, he
made only one;
(Perchance, like himself, it was
great),
But deed that is done cannot e'er be
Why ponder it, thus adding weight? 4?
Twas Roosevelt!
May treasures of blessings from Him
he adorea
His heritage be On this sward;
And when his barque touches Eter-
nity's shores
He'll enter the joy of his Lord
Our Roosevelt!
I.Ut who'll take his place, wear the
great civic crown?
Tis so plain che may read it who
runs"
They're many who may without lack
rannwn
He's but ONE of Columbia's sons.
Postscript i'm view of recent deveI-
Opments.)
y, Theo! Son Of the Morning,
How do the mighty fall!
The thought on us Is dawning,
Thou'rt human after all.
One truth fore'er will greet us,
Mrs. Gummidge voiced it forth),
Yes. Dan1; we're all poor creeturs, "
East, West and South and North
Fen Teddy,
The Roosevelt!

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that sci
ence has been able to cure in all it's
stages, and that Is catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure now known to the medical fra
ternity. Catarrh being a constitu-
tional disease, requires a constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure Is taken internally, acting di-
rectly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces Of the system, thereby de-
stroying the foundation of the dis
ease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and
assisting nature in doing its work.
The proprietors have so much faith
in it's curative powers that they offer
one hundred dollars for any case
that 1t fails to cure. Send for list
of testimonials. Address

THE LYMAN TWINS COMEDIANS

The Lyman Brothers VINO will ap,
pear here Thursday, April 8. in their
big musical show, "THE YANKEE
DRUMMERs" have the remarkable
distinction of being the only twin
comedians today before the public.
These clever young players have
made over one half Of the people in
the United States forget the tolls Of
life and enjoy a good laugh although
they are still in their twenties and
even now at that age they are rated
with the best comedians of the lay,
their work being full Of origlqqitties
and funny eccentricities of the higher
order.
Their new vehicle "The Yankee
Drammers rs an elaborate musical
farce handsomely staged and filed
with bright, clean and refreshing
comedy, intermingled with pretty mn,
sic, made sprightfy by dainty chorus
elegantly costumed together with a
complicated and funny story portrayed
by a cast of clever fun makers, The
Summer Girls, Military Maids, and
