A birdie found Adak last Sunday... EveryoneTs happy to welcome the spring.
A brown one with white trim was seen5 J-t’s a'shame there are some who can’t stay,
And now spring-is sprung the calendar says,But must trudge across town to the airport
And the tundra, in spots,has turned green.And fly...like that birdie...away.

Two little girls went out on a ha11
And came home as proud as could be,
Clutching some small woolv willow-stumps
Sprouting pussies you almost could see.

Easter was here, in addition...
The chapel was quite insufficient;
Adak seemed anxious to turn a now leaf,
’Tho at this we are not too nroficient.

Come to the Caribou Saturday night.
Our friends who must leave need consoling;
Have dinner with them at seven(spring time)
And help them forget that they’re going.
