The Path the Calf Made

Inc rain the IalI MdQe
One day through the prinevaI wood.
calf walked homo good calves should,
But made trail oil bent asks~,
A crooked trail, as all calves do.
Since then two hundred years hays fled,
And, | infer, the calf 10 dead;
But still, he left behind his trait,
And thereby hangs my moral tale.
The trail was taken up next day
BY lone dog that passed that >~ayi
And then a wise bell wether sheep
Pursued tho trail DER vale and steep.
And drew his focks behind him, too,
A. good bell wethsrs always do.
And from that day, Ger hill and glade,
Through those old woods path was made.
And many men wound in and out,
And lodged and turned and bsnt about,
But still they foIiowed-do not laugh
The first rigrations Of that calf;
And through the winding wood way staIksd,
Because no wobbled whom no walked.
This forest path became . lane
That bent and turned and turned again;
This crooked Ians became road
Whore many poor horse with his load
ToiIed on beneath the burning sun
And Travelled some three miles in one.
And thus a century and halt,
They trod the footsteps Of that calf.
The years passed on in swftness fleet,
Tho road became . village street.
And this, before men were aware,
cty's crowded thoroughfare;
And the central street was this
OF renowned metropolis.
nd man $>ua eanturiea and = half
Trod in the footsteps Of that calf
Each day hundred thousand rout
Followed the zisxas calf about,
And Ger its crooked journey went
The traffic Of . continent.
A hundred thousand men were led
BY one calf near three centuries dead.
They followed still his crooked way.
And lost one hundred years q day.
For thus such reverence 10 lent
To WE'LL established precedent.
A moral lesson this might teach
Were ordained and called to preach,
For mon are prone to 90 Il blind
Along the calf paths Of the mind,
They follow in the beaten track,
And out and in and forth and back,
And work away from to sun
To do what other mon have done.
They 90 two miles instead Of one,
To follow a path that was begun
BY one lone calf; and to this day
They follow this old crooked way.
II each and every wise M. o.
The wisdom Of these limos could see.
They would look back along their path,
And see the folly Of the calf.
Years and years, Ger tortuous way,
They've given physic-nade it pay,
And our straight Chiropraetic plan
They laugh at to a single man.
Their noxious drugs, more we'll drink,
But think we the to wink,
When viewing this devious path,
Made by some medicinal calf.
We hail with most sincere delight,
The dawn Of scientific light
That leads US from tho old, old way
To this, Chiropraotc day.
