His opinion of books Is not quite fit to print. But out In the shop he will do a full sprint. If at night In the distance you hear a fine tune, It s that Harold Sinclair a crooning at the moon. He sings a find song, what a beautiful tone, But how does he sing when he get3 with lone? If in the distance you see a big dust. It s a girl chasing Sparks, for picture taking he must He opens a book once In a while to read And how he can brag that his Ford has got speed. Dale Stanhope Is an artist, as we all know.

We have one little girl that Uvea up to her name, Leona's a Wiseman If ever one came. Though she’s little In size, she does everything well As the list of her honors among us can tell. Another for studying books, Edith Tunby we'll take But If three years for Johnaon she'll wait. She'll be out on a ranch with cattle to rangle . And when she gets mad that Johnson she'll mangle. As we come to the close of our four years together, And we look at the storms we have all had to weather.
