TEDDY AT THE WIFI
Contributed

Contributed
AS matter for reflection
Tho the times are growing late,
When you line up for election
To man your ship of State
Let me tell you what will happen
And to reason appeal,
If Hughes is chosen captain
You'll have Teddy at the Wheel
If Hughes is your selection,
There's more that might be said
Don't miss the main connection
He's but figure-head
The man who'll steer your ship of State
For the nations woe or veal,
Will not be Hughes at any rate,
But Teddy at the wheel"
If that's not what you re seeking
Just turn and face about
For you saw no one a weering
When they turned poor Teddy out,
But he's kept his wings fappin',
And he's made a mighty spiel
If ne can't be chosen captain
He'll be Teddy at the Wheel"
This is more than mere conjecture
And the people are not daft
We had Teddy for Protector"
When we had the reign of Taft,
Herein resides a precedent
That our reason cannot steal
If he could not thrice be president
He'd be Teddy at tae wheel.
The ship o States a glorious thing,
Let 8 love her with our might;
But let man do more than sing
And do the thing that's right
She is sound in every rafter
She is sound from mast to keel
Let US choose for her master
WITHOUT "TEDDY AT THB WHEEL"
Let us then be up and doing
With this thought for every fate
Let us hence go forth a wooing
And seek the polling gate
With our "Silent voices sounding
With grand and glorious peal,
Keeping Wilson name resounding
Frightens "Teddy from the wheel"

nj than they have been for years.
The scarcity Of tonnage
caused by the war has created a big
demand for the excellent schooners
turned out at these yards. and from
Portland tn PASSPORT the shipwrights
are at work. A feature OF the activ-
lily !s hat many OF the vessels in
course OF construction or contracted
for are to be controlled by foreign
owners.
II liz said that for the first time
American s%hipyards are building mer-
chant vessels for foreign account. One
notable order was that recently re-
Ceived by II. l.. Beam OF Camden, Me,
to build six large schooners, which
in the aggregate will cost about
81. 900, 900.
Yards at Bath, Me, which have been

has already begun at the Bath Iron
Works on several 1000, 900 tank
