But the ca~e to-day is a different kind and a different man you see; }1'or sixtt.'en years, as the fact appears, hc has l{cpt the record free. Postmasters are held to the service plan, When they handle the lnails for " ncle Sam U And the man who has served for so lon~.. a span, must have done it faithfullY. But tbis isn't all that he's done these years; as his townsman know full well, 'Vhen they gatller there at his store on tbe square, where he has the goods to sellFor be's served the town. in affairs of State; He has worked for the schools, both eal'ly and late, And ne,'er has known what it is to hate-and that's worth the while to tell.
