THE PIONEERS


Today we celebrate the pioneers,
Who came long years ago,
And settled Arizona,
To help to make her grow.
They found no irrigation,
Just desert, that was all.
And yet they struggled bravely on,
So this country would not fall.
They did not find the railroads,
That we now have today,
But they bravely faced the dangers,
That all before them lay.
They built the roads and railroads.
Made canals with much hard work.
Built houses barns and schools and stores.
And no duty did they shirk.
I'm just little school girl,
To the Phoenix schools / go,
With advantages they did not have.
For their children long ago.
Now their day Is over.
And are the baby state,
Yet remember those who helped us out.
And celebrate this date

THEIR JOBS

II YOU would gain from other men
The best they have OF worldly lore,
If you would add unto your ken
Such wisdom as they have in store,
Ask them about their job or trade,
Banker or farmer, boss or clerk,
And you will learn how worlds are made
Get them to talk about their work.
The dullest bore will make you feel
A thrill of highest zest
When he commences TO unreei
The tale of work he knows the best;
The thing by which he earns his bread
With true encantment Is a-throb.
Whether he tolls with hand or head,
Get him to talk about his job.
So shall you learn OF many lands,
OF many secrets Of the earth.
or wonders wrought by human hands
OF love and labor woe and nirth;
OF deserts Towering like the rose.
OF light that drives away the murk.
Man talks best of the things he knows,
Get him to talk about his work.
