THE FLOWER OF LIBERTY.
(First Prize.)
A plant which tyrants call a poisonous
WBt ,
Hsj lived sines ever mankind hs4 Its
birth. ,
Though crushed and tramped by ths feet
of war. ,
Or burned by flams or cut off close to
earth.
Its roots deep down In the soil whence
man was formed
lias grown again by every peasant's
hearth. .
On England's rocky shores In days of old
Its stunted growth denied both sun and
rain.
Kind hand! transplanted It to kindlier
soli.
Where It might bloom and flourish once
again;
But now 'twas crowded by such hearty
growth
The hope that It might bloom seemed
till In vain.
Once more 'twas lifted from the parent
soil
And carried far across the stormy sea;
Watered by tears and warmed by human
love.
Proudly It grows where all the world may
sea . . .!'
It bloom the sweetest man has aver
known
Red, Whlta and Blue, the Flower of
Liberty. .
THREE HUNDRED YEARS AGO
(Second Prize.)
Long ago a band of fearless Pilgrims.
Leaving home and friends behind them,
turned their faces west.
Just a free, unhampered right to love and
serve their maker, .
This alone their quest.
Tear by year the magic of their love
wrought wonders.
And the God tbey sought for heard them
pray.
Listened when they knelt together, hope
ful, reverent, trusting,
rarenta of our first Thanksgiving day.
Anxious hours and troubled days sped by
them.
A hundred years stilt - found them un
afraid. .
Axes ewlngtng. candles flickering, field
' a-bloomtng.
Tolling on. their sons and daughters
prayed. -
Highways, byways, homes and fields.
a-plenty!
love and freedom! Ex-ery man a king!
tUppy children! ""God high In his heaven"!
Wonder thou the angels sing?
t
O'er the rlesming world dim Pilgrims'
spirits hover.
Listening to the murmur of their chil
dren's weal and woe.
o the spirits smile T (Ah else
The Filgrlm Father failed three hundred
years ago. .
