JUST FOLKS

GOOD FOLKS.

Good folks abide in every place.
All cities know the friendly face,
There is no dusty village street
But what is glad with little feet.
And feels the tread Of kindly men
Who walk 70 work and home again.
Good mothers everywhere abide.
Travel the country far and wide
And you shall find. where'er you go.
Their gentle eyes with love aglow
And hear the sweet old lullabies
Which once brought sleep unto your
eyes.
However far the road YOU plod.
You still will ind belief IN God,
A CHEEKY hand viii wave you on.

gone;
From fellowship YOU cannot stray
Good men are everywhere today.
There is no city wholly base.

spend
