DOLLAR DAY. P. M. KEEVER TO WILSON man always noble, brave and true. A martyr to our cause were you; When Europe from a burdened heart Sent up the cry, "Come do your part!" Alone, unaided, you face the world And even when lips- with scorn were curled, You stood for your principles right and just And followed the motto, "In God We Trust," He who rules over all with a mighty hand Spared you to serve our land.
