Calamity Howlers Hushed.
(By W. C. PIATT)
Cal-a-mi-ty How-lers are hurled
to one side,
Our dinner Pail full, We are
eating with pride.
Honest Labor is get-ting its
sweet-est re-ward
Let us Praise our Great Lead
er and Worship the Lord.
The Har-vest is plen-ty for the
Farmers today,
The Wheat and the Corn
have grown in-to pay.
The Thresh-er is bus-y and the
Mills grinding fast
The Cal-a-mi-ty How-ler is
a thing of the past.
“De-mo-cra-cy” stands for all
things that are true
Pure Jus-tice for all Yes, for
me and for you.
Why the ‘‘La-men-ting,, the cry
goes a-far
Cal-a-mi-ty How-lers have
sure got a-jar.
We are sing-ing in u-ni-son both
Wo-men and Men,
With ap-pe-tites keen we
carve the fat hen.
| All good things of earth are
with us to stay
Work is now plen-ty and we
draw our full pay.
i No swapping of Horses, while
crossing the river
Our Leader is with us, he is
the Great Giver.
The money is ours, and we have
the pure cash
Dictators no longer can rule
with the lash.
| The Old Ship of State is steady
and true
She is feeding all Nations,
keeping plenty for you
The shouting is Ours from the
plains to the Sea
For the Dinner Pail’s full
both for you and for me.

A Bale For Christmas.
i -
Two years ago there was heard
all over the land the pleading
cry of “Buy a bale.” Now, whyi
not proclaim a new order, “Save
a bale?” The banks in our cities
have adopted a plan of opening
| a system of “Christmas boxes”
to which thousands of city peo
ple have made small deposits.
Now, why not get thousands of
cotton farmers to decide this
week to “Save a bale for Christ
mas?” It would hold off the
market thousands of bales and
thus help the price, and buyers
would naturally want to pay all
the market would justify for
this “Christmas Cotton.” It
would let farmers have cash for
the Christmas needs and a “nest
egg” for a January bank deposit.
This cotton could be marketed
any time during the week begin
ning December 18. Talk this
movement to “Save a bale for
Christmas?”
