It is true that there was plenty OF
political chicanery in getting the new
form but the promises were fair. II
may be that the voters and taxpayers
will tamely submit to political boss
ism but II they do they will regret
action.

Ancestry.

When mother Joined the D. A. r we
blew in lots of tin,
In chasin' up our ancestors before
she could get in,
We had to find some fOrefather who d
fit and bled and died.
Or mostly so before she got a single
look inside.
At times it was embarrassin' to say
the very least,
To learn some things about the boys
who fought away down east.
Dad said that mother better quit and
let the matter drop;
But ma just fixed a hard and most
sarcastic look on pop,
And kept right on a stirrin' up ira
ditions of the past,
Until us folks we wondered how on
earth the woman dast.
1t surely looked at one time that she
certainly would fail,
When she found out that nine of them
had served their time in Jail.
She then dug up a great-great-great-
grand uncle who looked good.
Until she found he quit the bunch, as
no good soldier should;
And father begged most ardently
upon his Bonded knee
For her to stop chasin up her dog
gone family tree.
He urged her to join something else
and try some safer bet,
And said he'd rather have her be a
bowling suffra gette.
When she found Uncle Abner twas
the triumph of her life,
Until she learned that he eloped with
some heutenant's wife.
She kept right on until one day her
joy was made complete;
That was the great red letter day
when she found Uncle Pete.
It seemed that there was nothing
wrong with Uncle Pete at all.
Although she probed his private life
from early spring till fall.
He was a soldier brave and true, and
fit in many fights.
And helped to put them thirteen little
colonies to rights.
Was all. so proud you couldn't touch
Then father bought a new silk hat
and US folks on the whole,
US with ten foot pole
With Uncle Pete upon our tree,
most adjoining limb,
We've had a mighty strenuous time
in livin' up to him.
