ITALY
By JAMES HAIL BENNETT

Southward from Mount Blanc lies
Italy
A land of storied events,
Reaching far to the south - even to
Sicily
Fabled with legends of dramatic in
cidents.
In the north of this wonderland,
Lies Genoa-the city from where Col
umbuS came
To discover America aided by gems
from IsabelS hand,
Only to be chained through another's
blame.
Nearby, on islands with canals is
Venice,
With its singing gondoliers and
SweetheartS.
From here Marco Polo Travelled to the
East with dangers menaccd,
Bringing back tales of riches and
beautiful arts.
In mid-westcrn Italy lies Rome
The city Of buildings beautiful,
Where long ago Julius Caesar named
his home, ~,
But he, stabbed by >conspirators,- was
always to the people-Caesar
the Dutiful.
Near Rome, lies Naples on the Medi-
terraneon's ebb and flow,
Where in times now past
Flowed lava from Vesuvuis, the mighty
volcano,
Causing brave Nepolitans to breathe
their last
Maybe so years from now they'll
be speaking of these times as the
good dole days.

THE SPIRIT OF AMERICA
By JAMES HAIL BENNETT

BY JAMES HAIL BENNETT
In a land on the horizon of the west
DweIIs the Spirit Of America,
With the Atlantic on the east and the
Pacific on the west;
With the Gulf on the south and OF
the north, Canada.
In the days of yester-year,
When our forefathers strove the coun-
try to. free;
When England would not hear
Their pleas for liberty,
DweIt the Spirit of America
The sturdy pioneers, slaves of the Spir-
it,
Pushing westward and fighting with
Indians, -
Accomplished deeds of merit
In their efforts to settle new lands,
Where now dwells the Spirit of Amer
lea
In the War of Eighteen-twelve, thirteen
and fourteen,
When Americas freedom of the seas
was sought
True patriotism was easily seen,
As men like Perry and Lawrence
fought,
When dwelt the Spirit of America!
Now, when war clouds have vanished
from the sky,
And peace reigns in our land,
There should be in you and me,
As in the days Of young America
were by man,
The Spirit of America!
