TIE LITTLE TOWNS.

town In Maine,
And little sheltered valley town and
hamlet on the plain,
salem Jackson, Waukesha and Brook
vile and Peru,
Gan Matcu and Ironton and Lake and
waterloo,
Little tCwn we smiled upon and loved
for simple ways,
Quiet streets and garden beds and
friendly sunlit days,
Out of you the soldiers came,
Little town of homely name;
Young and strong and brave with lau-
ghter,
They saw truth and followed after.
Little town, the birth of them
Makes you kin to Bethlehem!
Little town where Jimmy Brown. ran
the grocery store,
Little town where Manuel fished
along the shore,
Where Russian Steve the carpenter
and Sandy Pat McQuade
Worked all day in overalls at his mo-
cha.iic's trade,
Where Allan Perkins practiced law,
anu John, Judge Harper's son,
Planned a little house for two that
never shall be done
Little town, you gave them all,
Rich arG poor and great and small;
Bred them clean and straight and
strong.
Sent them forth to right the wrong.
Little town, their glorious death
Makes you kin to Nazareth!
Hilda Morris,
in General Federation Magazine.
