Farewell, Mr.. Winter.

Editor Times:
Farewell Mr.. Winter
with your billiards and snow.
How often We've wimpered,
Everyone knows.
You've stayed so long.
And you've been so severe
We are glad YOU are gone
Had YOU never come here.
All traffic was abandoned
For many a weary dan
Our supplies we carried;
No means Of convey.
With our coal-yard all empty
Not an ounce TO be bought
And many a coal-bin handt any.
So fuelless we fought.
Our purses have dwindled
To about half their amount.
Every time We mingled
Many a dollar we we're out.
To Red Cross and War Fund
We generously gave
To make bullets and guns.
Cur great nation to save.

Not another such a winter
