And never has to stop;
He's going twenty when he starts
And nifty o'cr the top.

One tank lasts him year:
And so. YOU gee. he hasn't got
This one expense TO fear.
He doesn't use much gasolene,
He makes a gallon do
To carry him for twenty miles
And maybe twenty-five.
He is an expert driver and
Just cannot lose his poise.
He never worries when he hears
An unaccustomed noise.
In all the years he owned his car,
Hes never bought tire.
But he's no genius. is this man
He's just common liar.

Thanksgiving Poem
"TO HIN GIVE THANKS"

To Him who grants us heat and rain, To Him who gives us meat and grain, Whose mercies crown each passing hour, Careless we take His gracious dover. Not thinking that the moment passed, But for His will might be our last. He does not falter, nor forget. For us the suns still rise and set; We barter happiness and health, And waste our lives for fame and wealth. When rightly used this conquering brain Could crush from earth all sin and pain; He knows, and waits, until we learn To paths of righteousness we turn; For further patience from Him pray, And bow in humble thanks today
