ALL HAIL TO THE TRAVELLER

They are jolly good fellows, we like
them to come,
They put life in a town that would
be on the bum,
They are working long hours for the
money they earn,
And are ready and willing to do a
good turn.
So give them a welcome and help them
along
Their burdens oft heavy, their lives
not all song.
Some nights when you're sleeping and
resting at ease
They're waiting for trains or split
ting the breeze
In a forty mile ride to some other
place,
Making up time in hurry up race
TO finish their trip by Saturday night,
And Sunday at home by their own
freight,
All hail! to the traveller. optimistic
and strong,
He oft-tine Is weary. but he still
goes along
without telling his grief, and with
never a wall.
So, hail! to the traveller, hearty,
All Hail!

THE COMMERCIAL TRAVELLER

The commercial traveller has quite
wide renown
All over the country. in both city
and town.
He goes after business like dog after
fleas,
His whole waking thought how sur
est to please.
Perseverance and patience, and bull
terrier pluck
Are his most valuable assets, and
seldom by "luck'
Does he write up his orders and the
good win retain
or his house" and his customers in
sunshine and rain.
He's royal good fellow, and seldom
a jay,
But there are some exceptions, truth
compels us to say. st-
1t is too true that sometimes, some
young fresh acting rammer
Gets loose and starts out on the
road with a hammer
But he seldom lasts long and does lit
tie harm
To the general fraternity and should
cause no. alarm.
His lack of good breeding and common
horse sense ss-
Will soon send him back and over
the fence,
Raised by gentlemen travellers to shut
out the man
Who disgraces himself, his house
and the clan.
