Last spring, when cotton Was selling so high, You could see soine farmers ‘ ‘ Floatiug' ’ in the sky— (But they ro'de.) They rode in the sun, They rode in the rnin— Some even rode In nn aeroplane— (But they rode.). They rode all night, They rode all day— They kept on riding, Tilf' the devil’s to pay— (But they rode.) If it wasn’t. nn auto, ’Twns a Illumed old mule; They kept on riding Till they played the fool— (But they rode.) Some doctors spent the year Distributing pills. And can’t collect enough now To pay gns bills— (But they rode.) \ The real estate business Was the best of all, But blame my skin If it didn’t full— (But they rode.) ■Some bought Fords, But carried them back And promised the difference For a Cndillae— (But they rode.) The farmers ami merchants Are broke, that’s true— (And it did look like The banks were, too) — _ (But they rode.) 'The nbAve was written Just for a joke— But dum my hide If the country ain’t broke!

The respective Governors, in tho absence of legislation, are by the charter authorized to name the State member of tho board, Thus, it is seen that: the promoters of Die project seek to make the pnrk a memo rial to valor, and a center from which will radiate a fair, truthful and full his tory of tho two great battles fought Upon that ground. The chnrter authorizes the board to nccopt markers or monuments offered by any State or organization, thus mnking it. possible for Northern Stntes or Union Army units to mark spots of peculiar in terest to the North, Major E.
