SING ME A SONG

Sing me a song, O Poet.
Sing me song of bliss,
Sing me a song of sunshine,
Of brighter world than this.
| am so weary, weary
Of endless toll and pain,
Weary of hopeless longing
Tears that are wept in vain.
Weary, so weary of striving,
Only to taste defeat;
Always the cup is bitter;
Ever l miss the sweet,
Youth and its pleasure vanished,
Love sang a SIRENS strain
Sing me song, O Poet,
Bid me take heart again.
Hark to the song l sing you:
Life is a wondrous plan
Over it all a Wisdom
Not for the mind of man.
And often the wave that skaters
One ship with mighty roar,
Brings, with its precious cargo,
Another ship to shore,

SPRING

Old King Winter aged and hoary
Now has lain his scepter down,
Time has shorn him of his glory
And has robbed him of his crown.
In his stead queen is reigning,
IT'S the gentle maid of Spring
And, her subjects uncomplaining
Now their richest treasures bring.
Each small blade of grass that's growing
Carpeting the earth with green,
Is silent drama" showing
On the royal picture screen.
There's low incessant humming
Where apple blossoms bloom,
And a gentle breeze keeps coming
Ladened with sweet perfume.
Soft refreshing April showers,
And the early mornings dew,
Decorate the trees and flowers
With bright gems of every hue.
Mother earth in robe of splendor,
Scarlet, purple, violet green,
Bids her offsprings young and tender
Nod Obeisance to the queen.
From the earth sweet flowers are spring
ing,
And in every nook and tree,
Feathered choristers are singing
Carols to Her Majesty.

WHEN ANSON CAME TO BAT

The infeld shivered, and each man
Drew deep and frightened breath
Then, setting teeth and clenching fists
Prepared for sudden death
The pitcher, as he Clutched the sphere,
Felt like hunted cat
Those were the days of glorious thrills
When Anson came to bat!
Amid the rumblings of the throng
The Old Man swung the ash
There was sudden, thunderous roar,
Mixed with binding crash
Around those bases Uncle sped,
In say two minutes flat
And all the world was bright with joy,
When Anson came to bait

Whenever you feel like Failure,
Just think | can't fal--if | try
Keep thinking: I'm going to get there;
For work is the coin that will buy.
Wake up with smile on your face, lad
Or lass-as the case may be,
Then just do your darn level best-and
You'll get there-Surf-take it from me.

We are moved to ponder as to what
the trouble is with the White Sox The
Indians have a team of youngsters and
they ccpped four straight from Kid Glea-
sons crew. Is it possible that Iris
Speaker is making a bid for pennant
with an unseasoned team?
George Sisters absence from the Browns
lineup explains their inability to take the
Tigers. Detroit has great offensive
York or Chicago on the defensive as the
last two had fielding percentage of
.975 last season. If Detroit overcomes
the handicap of the Indian sign that
Cleveland and the White Sox have on it,
it will be a real contender for the gon-
Talon. It is too early in the season to
make any predictions as the teams have
not hit their stride yet
Connie Mack's Athletics are no joke
this year. Washington has already made
that discovery. They have a pitching
staff that is second only to the Yankees,
hard-hitting outfeld and an infeld that
to Chance combination. Mack has evi-
dtnty made good on his promise to give
Old Slowtown real ball aggregation.
The Cubs are formidable All they
need to land them in the front rank is
good pitching. There are some heavy
ming true to form if the SCORES are any
indication. Last year the Cubs were
weak at the keystone corner as the senile
Marty Krug held this position. This has
been remedied and should strengthen the
team very much.

er wrote the popular song, Call Me
Back Pal of Nine" The publisher
claims that while the author received
S25 for the song, it was so full of i'm
projections as to require being entire
ly rewritten. The shoemaker took
the case into court and was awarded
$2,75O in royalties. While the sale of
the song was mere nothing, yet its
