Onm both sides of the po- lice Limes the spectators pressed closely. The drum corps passed at the head of the pariors omto the Piedmont, playing in Iively fashion, and the Native Soms, with a fah sprinkling of Native Daughters, scon crowded the lower deck of the boet from bow to stern and occupied s large share of the cabin. The greatest amountof enthu- siasm was manifested, some of which was worked off in pranks by yoanger Native Sons, who amused themseives by tarow- ing torpedces among the crowd. So far the programme bad prozressed exactly as it was laidount. Somethinglike 3000 tickets had been placed forsale up-| town, 8o that the Native Sons who marched in the procession were already supplied with the necessary pasteboards and there was no deisy to sceak of at the ferry.

An Ode to the Native Sons of Galifornia E A O stalwart sons of the stalwart men whose names are the Westland’s B glory, Whose mighty thews won the land you own and bequeathed it you forever, Wheose deeds are writ for the race to read in the world’s immortal story, And whese pale brows from their deathless wreaths no mortal hands shall sever! Ostzlwmsmsdanaafkmg, Accept the song an old man sings- There is no land in the whole wide world fike this great land of ourss Beloved}ofm'idlachifl’smhveforthegiflssombiy given s Beloved of God, who puts His seals in the shapes of radiant flowers Upon each inch of our fruitful soil to make mes sure of heaven. O stalwart seas of 2 mighty land, What hand so wise as a Father’s hznd? The Eastiand shricks ’neath the fiery heat; the snow and the ke assail her; Her face is lashed by the tempest’s whip and scarred by the lightning’s finger; Nor threats nor prayers of weary men against their fate avail her— The Eastland treads a gloomy path whereon few sunbeams Enger. O staiwart sons, the Eastiand bears A Beavy coss up life’s steep stairs! Our land is*free from the storm’s rongh breath, the hurricane gods OQur seasons pass with a rhythmic step through the chain that the days are weaving; Our songbirds sing with a saucy air—their mates in the East are weeping ; Our land is loved by the laughing sun—the snow-decked East O stalwart sons of the mighty West, Which land, think you, of these is best? The rough old sea oa cur land’s soft marge its whits-souled spray is finging— “What strtand so fair as the Western strand?” the laughing waves are aying; The deep-sea birds of their Western loves in hoarser tones are singing As, homeward bound on the wind’s great wings, they fiy whea day is dymg. O stalwart sons, the birds shouid know, For o’er the whole wide worid they go. Our air is sweet with the smell of herbs and fresh with the breath of grasses; Our fields are rich with a wealth of grain lured forth by the sun’s caresses ; The young winds dance on our mountain tops and ring in our gloomy passes— They ride at will on the kughing waves or hide in the grain’s long tresses. O stalwart sons, could the East but see The Westiand’s rich fertility! Our girls are cast in a2 golden mold; their cheeks wear the kiss of morning ; Their Bps are tinged with a deeper red than tinges England’s They grasp the truths of the great mew fife which everywhere is dawning ; The love of God—aye, the love of man—within their hearts reposes. O stalwart sous, our giris are good— The type of truest womanhood. Ye know the worth of the gift full well—this gift of the Father’s giving— And well ye know how your sires toiled for that which ye inherit; And well ye know that without true work no life is worth the living, And in God’s judgment deeds well dome Death’s cown alone shali merit. O stalwart sons, ye will not shirik From finishing your sires’ work? Then up and do while the day is yours. Work steadily and surely To make the Banner of the Bear defy these stars above you; Have faith in seif, in State, in God.
