"HOME THOUGHTS."
Tonight the boys were yarning Of things they’d de e c r : '. c- : „ And as they laughed and chatted, Each von -no more he’d roam. Some of them come from the city. Others had toiled on th: land, But all arc impatiently waiting for To,; o to make his last stand. Over here on these tropical .islands, However happy they -mi, They’d rather be back in the ci£y, Or driving the same old team. They aim.- sure there’s a welcome waiting, Bron s', carts and wives left belli nd, The day they set foot on Yew Zealand, I trust each will happiness find. Yes, lot Mother put on the kettle, And .father build up the fire, for it’s of folks like you we .are thinking,. In the land of our heart’s desire* "Pro 80/ta Publico.”
