In my youth during the war years At our July First festivities three cheers They held a Tug 'O War Police and Fire to the fore At times life is like a Tug 'O War it appears

It was held every year... sometimes police, sometimes fire! I cheered for fire, they were the underdogs most years! Hope your Wednesday is a winner my love! Love, Happy Jack XOX
