JULESBURG

A town within sheltered Wiley,
Where storm clouds sometimes tarry,
A river where the sand dunes rise,
To meet the distant prairie.
A road meandering up the hill,
With gravel for its pavement.
The hill-tops, with their cactus beds,
And soap-weed at their basement.
A rolling prairie miles away,
With cattle grazing ever
A Fordson in a distant field,
Seems purring on. forever.
A sand storm rises DER the plain,
And never stops to question;
Tho eyes and noses almost fill
With sand, beyond all mention.
Within the heart of Julesburg found
A business, strong and wholesome,
Whice pleasure-loving people seek
And know not the word lonesome, +"
Then let us all be loyal,
And of our town be proud,
For Julesburg is our home town,
And We are the .Julesburg crowd.
