Coming Home.

Coming home is best l say. Tho it is fun to sail away. And there is pleasure in a trip Over land or on ship. Taking you to splendors new, Afte rall the journeys through. Makes no difference where l roam There's no thrill like ioming home. Maybe with a humping heart, I'll look forward to the start And you'll think I'll never get, Quite enough travelling yet.
 After I have journeyed far,
 Where the nations wonders are Soon you'll find me hungering for All the folks at home once more. You May laugh and sing and shout, As we wonder in and out,
 Meeting new friends everywhere Seeing glories here and there.
 But these joys at last will pail And I'll wish above 1t all,
 For that happiest moment when I'll be starting home again.
The Nevada County picayune., 1921-05-12

Trips are glorious things to take, Journeys every one should make, There are places good to be Much the eye of man should see. But no matter where I go This you'll surely come to know, Best things trains can do is when They are bringing me back home again, Thank you.

ORTO FINLEY RESIGNS FROM
 PICAYUNE TO JOIN STAR OF HOPE

Orto Finley, who has been with the Daily Picayune since its first issue of January 1, this year. has resigned his position with this paper to accept a more lucrative one with MT. McCorkle of the Star of Hope.
 Mir. Finley will enter upon his new duties on the Star tomorrow, but his family will remain in Prescott for a while in order that his daughter may continue in school until its close. It is not without regret that the Picay- une loses the services of Mir. Finley l; because he possesses ability which en- titles him to greater compensation than we are able to grant, and he leaves us with our good will and recommenda- tions. In his new position on the Star of Hope, we know he will make good as he has with us--in fact his ability as a writer warrants Us in saying that he could make good a newspaper of Metropolitan proportions. We sincere ly wish him well, and congratu tulate MT. McCorkle on. having secured his ser vices.
