In years gone by she foolishly Some reprobate adored. _ And now she looks up picusly, And blame it on the Lord.

But in this Twentieth Century, No praying, cursing horde, Should make the land a slaughter house And blames it on the Lord.

Should stil so blinded be ? We live in an enlightened age, Yet, all with one accord, Whatever happens, seem inclined To blame it on the Lord. If Clergyrien were humorists, We‘d think it clever fun : To see them look so piously. And say, "Thy will be done." After some clever idiot, Gets killed, jumping on board A imcving train. How readily They blame it on the Lord. Young people often live too fast, They run the pace that kills, And wonder why, in after years, They’ye nought but doctor‘s bills. A pity ‘tis so pitiful, s So thoughtless and absurd, And yet those so afflicted Will blame it ou the Lord. The following verses by Mr. Jas.
