Twas years ago she came quickly into
sight,
And did her work in the evenings. an

She took her stand,
And pleased people throughout the
land.
OF course at times it was hard to tell
If she was right or wrong.
But more times was right than wrong.
Now at evening with her we linge-

She bears the name of THE ARD
