1931 THC OZiewr 1931 III.Illlllllll.Illlllllllllll.......Illllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll... I.....Illllllll May 24—Essex County Park Commission reports that tract of wilderness known as Independence Park will assume the form of a Public Park about May, 1931, if the lone laborer can be encouraged to speed up his work.

Finis THE TASK Was ever a stranger message sent? You write a poem for the Orient.” It fills your heart with a sense of dread And dizzy pains shoot through your head, You hem and haw and sit in doubt. You stammer and stutter ’til you want to shout To deuce with the poetry, writings and such I’m so rattled now I think I’m in Dutch.” But you come out of that just a little saner And the next few lines arc a little plainer; Quickly the thoughts begin to flow Now, to finish this line. I’ll make it go.” That sounds good—Yeah! Not so bad. And there’s ever so many more to add. Perhaps this is boring and not worth your time But it’s awfully hard to make words rhyme. Something must happen to end this stuff, I imagine you all have had enough. Now always remember this country is free That’s why poems are made by fools like me. Virginia McGuire. Fifteen
