SENATOR BERT FERNALD
BLOSSOMING AS A POET

Senator Bert NJ. Fernald Of Maine is
gaining fame as poet. He was invited
at Thanksgiving tine, 1917. to attend
banquet given by the Rocky Mountain
Club in New York City in honor Of our
Maine boys sailing for France. The
senator was unable to be present-a.
though he had been invited to carve Z
turkey at a table around which were to
be II sons of Maine-and wired the fol-
owing, which made a decided hit with
the entire assemblage:
Thanksgiving, 1917
Boys of Maine. our hearts are with you
And our pride in you is more than l
can tell.
Boys were never Drawer. wiser
And with YOU will catch the Kaiser.
When you get him with his army,
Give him He'll. Give him He'll.
Came another invitation this year to
attend the Christmas banquet, but
again the senator was unable to accept.
go sent the following:
Christmas. 1918
Soldiers all a royal welcome
To the land YOU love so well
You have captured Bill the Kaiser.
You have licked the Huns like He'll.
We're indebted for your valor,
For the bravery you have shown.
You shall wear a heros battle,
You shall wear herOs crown.
Saddened memories will finger
OF those fallen in the fray.
Happy, cordial, Christmas greetings
To YOU from Old L. 5. A.
The message evidently pleased the
members of the club. for Senator
Fern,ld Immediately received the fol-
lowing telegram from Secretary Her
Icrt Wall:
Your welcome to Soldiers of the
United States will appear on the menu
provided for the Christmas dinner, but
we will have 400 sailors from transport
cruisers force and destroyers. Would
like another verse, clarifying their
achieve ments.''
The senator was equal. to the occasion
and in a jiffy had the following ready
for the telegraph messenger;
To Our Sailors
Hail. O Hail, We valiant sailors,
Following Uncle Sans advice
You have whipped the German army,
Put old i,aiser Bill on ice.
All the nation joins in welcome,
All the people now are glad.
Wen remember In the future
