Me I wouldn't know a rancn from a range Or maybe they're both the same I don't know But as for getting a job on a ranch for a veteran I just don't have a chance And I've never had any experience

the words "in feel that I was to blame for allowing ex-service men some civil service preference I really didn't have anything to do with it All I have done is report that veterans do get some preference That's the way it is according to valuable service" She continues "It willtake supermen to face the facts that they must do the best they can to (1) get over the unconditionally or be
