say,
In that far-off town of Cobleskell,
Where Marguerite was one of the So
ciety swells.
This young man they call John Gam

With his young bride to the sunny
south did ramble;
To the land Of sunshine and palms
they went
To the village of Mulberry, where
their honeymoon was spent.
Eight years had gone by when they
went to Palatker,
And lived in neighborhood of gooC
cheer and laughter.
A club was formed by those gooC
folks,
And John was big winner, and that's
no joke.
And now as that little club is again
assembled
They want to be remembered to their
dear friends-the CANDLES.
So a nice new shining pot of tin is
given
Here's hoping that we all meet to
help celebrate Anniversary
