WHATS THE USE TO BOOST?

KNOCK and the knocker is with
you-boost and you hear groan.
The towns dead broke and about
to croak and the knocker says
leave 1t alone. Knock and the
knocker will cheer you-boost, you
are handed brick. He makes an
excuse and says it's no use to boost
for town that's sick. Knock and
the knocker adores you-boost,
you are up stump. He let's out
yelp and refuses to help and bus
mess goes bumpty-ity-bump. A
banquet won't help the knocker-
he'd knock if you fed him pie
he would not strive to make things
thrive-hed rather see Hickville
die. There are many towns like
Hickville, that are taking quiet
sneak-dead at the hands of the
knocker-killed by yellow streak.

 Frank Ming personally saw to the arrangements of the banquet table. Probably never before in Yuma was more sumptuous repast spread be fore banquet guests. The menu was perfect, so was the service. It was one of those really rare occasions that is ever after looked upon as real pleasure by all those who par ticirated. It is needless to say Col French was pleased with the token of esteem shown him. His voice was almost choked with emotion as he responded to the many kind and gen erous words heaped upon him, and more than one eye was dimmed w tears as they all finally bade their beloved commander an official good ble.
 Following are the officers who were present:
 Colonel French, Colonel Baker Lieut. Col. Chase, Major Harbeson. Captain Tiffany, Captain Page, Cap. tain King, Captain Bonnet, Captain Glass, Captain Wygant, Captain Wool nough, First Lieut.. McNarney, First Lieut. Eisenschmidt.
 It was an occasion long to be re membered by those present.
