Old Vermont Roads.

The old-time roads, they used to run
Right over all the hills and rises,
And made the shortest kind of cut
To get to Benning Wentworth's prizes
They wasn't tipped with tepid tar,
They might have made shofer cavil,
But they was all the kind of roads
Our settler fathers had to travel.
They run them roads from town to town
About the way they shot a rifle;
A river didn't change their course.
A mountain made EN- bend triae;
Oh. yes; they jest was "water-bound =
No grease or graft or even gravel,
But still they averaged bout as good
As what we modern .'dusties" travel
The fathers didn't walk abroad
Arrayed in pumps and Paris slippers;
They took no hikes along the pixies,
They never posed as Sunday trippers,
They didn't wash their socks with lux,
Or rense EN- out in eau de javel
And where they went they had to 60
That's why the fathers used to travel.
It's bout the same with us today;
You don't back out your painting fivvei
To take a pleasure ride-not much
And get an embolismic liver;
You know jest how a shell-hole looks,
You've seen all sorts of surface" ravel
\ You know that when you near bridge
You'll see it billed, Unsafe for Travel
And when highway hit grant
In them old days, it didn't schism,
But plowed right through to Center Town
Like highbrows chasing up an ism;
And there they built hard-shell church
But didn't fool with soft-shell gravel
The road the circuit rider used
Was good enough for all to travel.
| The teams from Albany got through,
The stages seldom missed in Summer,
| The sacred cod was right on hand
| But not as yet the Boston drummer;
He didn't come until he heard
! The rap of Trades compelling gavel,
| And all the road he counted on
Was one a travelling man could trave
It's great to trace them roadways now
Through worn-out field and back-lo
moving;
| The suller holes and lilac trees
/ Still show where life was once allowing
They're smoother now than lots c
