WHEN HE COMES I

(My Boy From France)
'Twill seem like spring to me when
he comes home
E'ere though soft snowflakes fill the
air,
For in my heart sweet birds will sing
The glad flowers bloom, most every
where. It seemed so lonely since he went
away
Each day I've missed him in a thou
sand things
Whilst every hour my thoughts would
stray,
Where he was. Love needs not
anything.
'Twill seem like hope and love were
each my own,
When he that is my cherished lad
returns
And Life and Time that slow have
grown
With Youth and Haste the hours
will burn
So humbly proud so favored will I
be,
With this dear one, so dearly old,
yet strangely new,
That everyday will Springtime seem
to be,
And Joy will light each task that I
must do!

Ice Boxes on Wheels
Refrigerator cars for carrying meat are ice
boxes traveling on wheels.
Most people in America would have to go
without fresh meat, or would have to pay
more for what they could get, if it were not
for these traveling ice boxes.
Giistavus F.', Swift, the first Swift in the
packing industry, saw the need of these
traveling ice boxes before others.
He asked, the railroads to build them. The
railroads refused. ' They were equipped, kn&
preferred to haul cattle rather than dressed beef.
.VJ tf
So Gustayus ,F. Swift had to make the cars
himself. The first one was a box car rigged
up to hold ice.' Now there are 7,000 Swift
refrigerator cars. Each one is as fine, an ke
box as you have in your home.
Day and night, fair weather and foul,
through heat and cold, these 7,000 cars go
rolling up and down the country, keeping meat
just right, on its way to you.
Thus another phase of Swift & Company's
activities has grown to meet a need no one
else could or would supply in way that
matched Swift & Company ideas of being
useful.
When you see one of these Swift & Company
cars in a train, or on a siding, you will be
reminded of what is being done for you as the
fruit of experience and a desire to serve.
