Stranger—
You are welcome to our Town
And we will make an effort
To tear all barriers down.
And when you are taking in the sights,
And have the time to spare,
Hunt up Seward’s oldest Pioneer
And see what he is doing there.
You will find he has a real live moose
Behind a high board fence,
And all it costs to see that moose
Is just Fifty Cents.
