HOW TO WIN.
(By W. O. Wann, Twin Falls, Idaho.)
Most all the world's a lottery
And many blanks within.
But they who dare not take a chance
Can never hope to win.
The miners climb the mountain peaks
And there their work begin,
For well they know unless they try
They cannot hope to win.
They delve in earth among the rocks
Where "colors" are but thin,
But if they do not dig and delve
They cannot hope to win.
We buy the stocks of railroads
That are watered to the brim,
While all the time we know there is
But little chance to win.
And then we play the races
To pick the nimble skin,
But the "books'' are packed against us
And of course we cannot win.
We "stand" upon the two spot
And assume a bland-like grin,
Because we know we only have
A fighting chance to win.
The girl we love is a mystery
From hair to dimnled chin,
But bet your life we'll take a chance
Though—we don't expect to win.
The farmers of the rain belt states
Sows either thick or thin,
It matters not—without the rain
They surely cannot win.
But. irrigation takes the cake
There is no "might have been,"
The fickle goddess does not rule
And if you work you win.
Then come to Southern Idaho
Rub out—begin again,
Turn on the water—you needn't pray
For your dead sure to win.
For Rent—A large furnished room
with bath and modern conveniences.
