A FEW KIND WORDS. ,QI SI-IEEE. ..... WILLIAII NVALTER HEFFELFINGER One of the few, the immortal names, That are not meant to dief! PUBLIC LIFE, ...... I'TON. GEORGE M. LANDERS 'fIt ain't the man who cheers the most 'Who rules election dayg It ain't the angry talker Who will drive The Trusts away. It's the silent, patient person, Wlio can smile and never shirkg The man who does the fussin' Ain't the man who does the work. OLD TIMES, ..... HON. HONIER S. CUMMINGS In after years should troubles rise To cloud the blue of sunny skies, How bright will seem tliro' Memory's haze, Those happy, golden, bygone days. SIDE LIGHTS, ...... HON. GEORGE C. KOHLER There's many an ambition 'Which is but a fruitless quest, But the world is full of sunshine An' of beauty, an' of rest, An' we've had the fun of living Though We ain't successful, quite, But there ain't no use of kickin' If the ish don't bite.
