"a 10Th CENTURY PAUL REVERE"

"Listen, my children, and you shall hear
Of twentieth century Paul Rever
Of brave young scout on valiant steed'
Who rode race for his Country's need
He heard of his County's call for men;
He heard of their sacrifice, and then
He heard of the need for money, too
For food and clothes to help them through;
He wanted to help, though he could not fight,
He wanted to serve in the cause OF right.
So he mounted his horse, Thrift Card in hand,
And rode and rode throughout the land.
"Money!" he cried, money for clothes!,
"The bows in the trenches!" off he goes;
And mid the sound of the Gathering hoofs
The call re-echoed across the roofs
"Gather your nickles, gather your dimes!
"Help the Nation Prepare these Times!
"Lend Uncle Sam part of yo ur pay
"Store up! Store up! for rainy day.
The people heard, as the scout flashed by,
They heard his fervent, earnest cry
And out of the stockings laid away,
And out of the closets hid from day,
They gathered their savings of many years
And poured them forth with hearty cheers
"Take these" they cried, in the cause of right
"We'll do our bit-and add our mite"
"We'l help to fight and win this war,
"We'll save as neer we've saved before.
And when the scout on his valiant steed
Had spread the call of his Country's need,
He drew his reins as he reached his home
And patted the neck all flecked with foam
"Our work is DONE" he said, "Old man
The Nations reused to War-Thrft Plan"
