Lincoln while on his way to Washing

Lincoln while on his way to Washing
ton to be inaugurated, stopped at Gin
cinnati to appeal to the south to stay
in the union and keep their slaves,

refused to listen and by their acts
helped settle the slave question for
all time.
Eve have now cemented the union
of states and abolished the division Of
north and south, east and west. Is
there nothing more to do? AS said

white slaves while in our time Cath

may differ from us shall be protected
in his belief and freedom.

THE FLAG GOES BY.
Hats Off
long the street there comes
A blare OF bugles, ruffle of drums,
A flash of color beneath the sky;
Hats off
The flag is passing by!
Blue and crimson and white it shines
Over the steel tipped, ordered lines.
Hats off!
The colors before US fly!
But more than the flag is passing by.
Sea fights and land fights, grim and
great,
Fought to make and save the state;
Weary marches and sinking ships;
Cheers of victory on dying lips.
Days of plenty and years of peace,
March of strong lands swift increase,
Equal Justice, right and law,
Stately honor and reverend awe.
Sign of nation great and strong
To ward her PEOPLE from foreign
wrong;
Pride and glory and honor-all
Live in the colors to stand or fall
Hats off!
Along the street there comes
A blare of bugles, ruffle of drums;
And loyal hearts are beating high;
Hats off!
The flag is passing by.
