PICKING VLOLETS FOR YOU.
BY Thomas Robertson.

AS our hearts were torn apart
Like the lily from the dew,
| tried to content myself
By picking violets for you.
wandered down the wooded hill
sides
Down by the !ippling stream;
Down in the grass covered meadow
Kissed by the suns golden gleam.
There the wild vio'ets grew
Mingled in the grassy hue,
With all their cOl0rs of crimson
And beautiful heavenly blue.
The sweetness Of the odor
While sWaying in the breeze
Added loveliness to the surrounding
OF the sWaying trees.
AS l picked the violets
Little clouds darted in the blue
And they brought back those
memories
OF hours spent with you.
HAS the last moment passed?o
ask.
AS the violets kiss my hand.
Il hope that she is happy;
But I'm afraid she doesn't under
stand"
The why Of the parting
Means explanations that are few.
So it is up to you to make the de-
cisiOn
OF whether ye start life anew.
So I ended my moments Of thinking
Down in the grassy hue,
And turned to your loveliness
While picking violets for you.

A veteran of a dozen years
in the ring will test Big Boy
Hogue Thursday night in the

counter may rest the future
of the Jacumba whirlwind.
The veteran is Bobby Pacho,
battle-scarred battler who at one

every man of note in the welter-
weight and lightweight divisions.
Only by a quirk of circumstance did
he fall short of becoming cham
pion.

best preliminary cards in a long
time at the El Centro arena was
announced by Frank Lahey, match
maker. In the semi-windup Cleo
Shans, the dancing black boy from
