THE HOME TOWN

Some folks leave home for money

The home town Is the glad town
Where something real ahides.

Though strangers scofr and hout It
And even jeer It's name.

The home town skies seem bIuer

The home town friends seem truer

Whenever the price OF corn is very

With wheat flour at 1926 per barrel

barrels of mixed flour were manufac-
tured: but in this year the Spanish
