THE GREATEST THING.
By Dama Stigers.
The greatest thing on earth
Is love;
The greatest thing in Heaven
Is love;
Then why tread along
This life without a song;
We should make a happy throng
By our Love.
To all that you meet,
Show love;
At home or on the street,
Show love;
In all of your labor,
To your friend and neighbor
Oh ne’er use the saber
But show love.
—Stonington, Colo.
