A CALL TO ARMS.
Arise, ye stems of British oak, And arm ye for the fray; Across the deep otrr mother spoke— Sbe needs our help to-day. Be others leggaxcls if they will, And shun a soldier's grave, Zealaadia's sons will answer still— " We're thine, to die or save!" Our fathers loved the dear Homeland, And we, their sons, will try To prove ourselves a worthy band To aid her cause «r die. Chtr wealth and lives — all, all, are thine, Do with them as you will; That foreign nations for all time May know we're loyal still. — D. B. Pope. Dunedin, December 14.
