Song of the Pines

High in the North sings the sea at the feet
of the foam-fretted forelands;
Bitter and hard is her chant as the tenn
pest that thunders and shrills,
Or the moan of the bleak bergs battling
blindly to seward
Loudly sing of the hills.
In the green isles of the South sings the sea
on the coral white beaches,
Sibilant, silken and soft as a love song
that whispers and thrills
In the drone of the surf and the mystical
murmur of palm fronds-
Softly l sing of the hills.
Restless the sea sings from the North to the
South, from the Line to the Circle;
Manifold. NODDED and mastered, mani
fold needs she fulhlls.
But the slim pine trees, chosen of old and
anointed-
Constantly sing to the hills.

West Tandy's allus findin' fault cause

The weather, 'cordin' to his tell, is run
most miserably,
The crops don't figure out adzackly as they

Because the Lord don't govern 'em as
Westly Tandy would.
Now Wesley says, he says, says he, if he
could have his say
He'd make the hull endurin' year about

He'd feed the poor on savory meat an chide
the rich with crumbs,
An weed out all the Baptists and Presby-
teriums.

Smile a While

Every cloud has silver lining
, Every moon is world made new,
There's always bright side to every sorrow
ok,-you'll find it if you do.
Sometimes this world seems full of trouble
As though it were always meant for you
But there's Away something for which to
be thankful,
Something to make this world seem true.
Just the fact that the sun is shining,
Just the fact the rain must fall
Just the fact that the birds are singing
Happiness was meant for ALL

Al Man

About his brow the laurel and the bay
Was often wreathed-on this our
Memory dwells,-
Upon whose bier in reverence today
We lay these immortelles.
His was vital. virile, warrior soul;
IT force were needed, he exalted force;
answering as the pole star to the pole
He held his righteous course.
He smote at wrong, if he believed it wrong;
AS did the knight with stainless accolade;
He stood for right, unfalteringly strong,
Forever unafraid.
With somewhat of the ssvant and the sage,
He was, when all is said and sung, a man,
The flower imperishable of his valiant age
A true American!

lnnocuous Desuetude
(Carveth)

(Carveth)
The frost is on the Kaiser and his nerves
have aad shock
No medals on his bosom and no crown up
on his block.
A quiet nook in Holland not a trihe like
Berlin
A tickling sensation underneath his ugly
chin.
His wakeful hours are idle and his dreams
devoid of hope
Nightmares turn his submarines to coils of
endless rope.
No booming sound of cannon now doth
greet his anxious ear;
His heart is dull and fshy, while his heart
is stuffed with fear.
No longer grandly wading through seas of
human blood,
Methinks hear him murmuring, ''alas my
name is mud"
Full oft he pounds the table, with many q
husky slam,
And snorts 81 stood no nonsense from dot
old Uncle SAM
In elammy death like silence, they see him
come and go!
In his reflective moments he can hear his
mustache grow.
So the frost is on the Kaiser and unhappy
is his lot.
Looks as if he had dissolved his partner
ship with Colt.

Lying close to the Garden of Dreams:
The leaves never fall, and the for-get-me-

oh, yes, we all know what humble pie
is-no doubt we've all eaten it on one or
more occasions in our lives, but we may
not all know where the expression originate

were stocked with deer, venison pasty was
commonly seen on the tables of the wealthy.
The inferior and refuse portions of the deer,

Hence tumble pie became suggestive of
poverty, and afterward the phrase was APP

Funny, how when one begins to trace

everything pertaining to rural affairs. Now
Pan was. originally, among the Egyptians,

A curly head rose from his bed

The story he tells is of ringing bells,
And shrek of whistles 10 his ear.
He hears the noise of men and boys.
As into the street they stream;
Then shook his head and quickly said:

This world is glad and free;
The noise you hear deafening to the ear
Proclaims glorious holiday.
1t means great day of rejoicing to US,
And far more to them over there,
For years they have known but burning
With dying and dead everywhere

screaming
From what was once happy home,
Left scanty clothed and half starving
In deserted land to roam.

Were homes and sodded plain

Like threshing-st straw before the wind;
In many places the very earth burned up
By raging battles fame.

Weary of the wrong he has done,
Now, has not place on this green earth
