Cloverland

Col. Mott, secretary of the U. P. de-
velopment bureau has been issuing
some neat and unique advertisements
which have melted some of the local
poets to inspirations on Cloverland
which is as follows:-
Cloverland. Oh Cloverland,
The fields are bright and green;
Lets boost for you to beat the band.
You are the best that e 'er we've seen
Let's stroll the meadows with
our own sweetheart,
And WOO our maiden fair,
lncitation thou dost impart,
To make US two, one pair.
Bring your girl to love in days of June,
And bask in the sunshine of our days
Then you'll be married very soon.
And all your works are turned to
plays
Then you'll rear in the meadows of
Cloverland,
Bright boys, and girls, so sweet;
And you'll bless the day that Cloverland
And you, and your girl, did meet.
