THE NEW TOWN CLOCK.
On December thirty first 1929
The old clock tolled out twelve
For the last time, she gave the
houir of the day
Also ’her funeral knell.
The daring fireman scaled the
walls,
W,ith dangger lurking near; .
To slave the clock that served so
well
For forty one long years.
And as we pass around the ruins,
Wle look up in the sky
To get the time, alas! ’tie gone,
We hang) our heads and sigh.
Wle love the good old timer,
For the good that she has done
Beyond repair, she can’t come
back;
Let’s have another one.
Do we want .another time piece?
With your vote say yes, or no;
The dourt, our feelings then will
know,
I’m sure they’ll make it go.
Remodel or build a court house,
Of metal, brick or rock;
And upon its highest pinnacle,
Place a modem NEW-TOWN1-
CLOCK.

Bonham, Texas.
By Felicia Dorothea Hermans
The boy stood on the burning deck
Whence all but him had fled;
The flame that lit the battle's
Wlreck
Shone riiund him o’er the dead.
Yet beautiful and bright he stood,
Ais bom to rule the storm;
A creature of heroic iblood,
A proud, though, childlike form.
The flames.colled on; he would
not go *!'.'■ *•: / ' v
Without his father’s word;
Tinat father, faint in dearth, below,
His voice no longer heard.
He called aloud, “Say- father say
If yet my task be done.!’’
He knew not that the chieftain lay
Unconscious of his son.
Sptiak, father!’’ : once again, he
cried,
“If I may yet be gone!”
And but the booming shots replied
And fast the flames rolled on.
Upon his brow ne felt .their breath,
And' in his waving hair,
And looked from tthe lone post of
death
In still, yet brave, despair.
And shouted but once more aloud,
“My father! Must I stay?”
Wjhile o'er him, fast, through sail
and shroud,
The wreathing fires made way.
They wrapped the ship in splendor
wild,
Subject to the action of the
Democratic primary, in July, 1930.

, A PATRIOTIC CREED
“The American's Creed,” adopt-
ed by Congress in 1919, is not as j
well known to the citizens of the j
country as i,t should be.
This creed was selected tnrough |
a contest, open to all Americans, j
for the purpose of securing “the 1
best summary of the political |
faith of America.” The author of
the successful manuscript was
Wm. Tyler Page, a descendant of |
President Tyler.
The phrases composing it are j
taken from the Preamble and the
Constitution of the United
States, the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, the Oath of Allegiance
and from utterances of distin-
guished patriots, all woven to-
gether into a complete and lofty
sentiment, as follows:
“I -believe in the United States
of America as a Government of
the people, for the people: whose
juait powers are derived! from the
consent of the governed; a dem-
ocracy in a republic; a sovereign
Nation of many sovereign States:
a perfect union, one and insepera-
ble; established upon those prinei-
They caught the flag on high, ! pies of freedom, equality, justice
And streamed above the gallant
child
Like banners in the Bky.
There came » burst of brmnder
sound.
The boy—oh, where was he?
Ask of the winds, that far around
With fragments strewed the
sear—•
With mifist and helm and pennon
fair
That well had borne their part—
But the noblest thing that perish-
ed there
Wlas that young, faithful heart.
and humanity foT which Ameri
can patriot® sacrificed their lives
and fortunes.
“I therefore believe it is my
duty to my country to love it;
to support its Constitution;
to obey
its laws; to respect its Hag, and
to defend it against all enemies.”
What Chicago needs right now
is a Wallingford or a Ponzi.
Com is our greatest crop and
America's most useful contribu-
tion to the world’s supply. Con-
verted into pork, it is the base of
our principal meat food; we eait
much more pork than we do beef
Such a discovery as Dr. Jones’
means more to national prosper-
ity than a dozen new steel mills.
A Washington daily has as. its
motto “All the Facta; No Opin-
ion.” Some contemporaries might
counter with “AH Opinion; No
Facts.”
