“ PALACE JINGLES "
When once the streets are graded,
And this town takes on the air
Of a camp that has grown permanent,
Of a city that is “there;”
When the trail is clear to Kenai Lake
Then we’ll charter Ashland’s car,
And you’ll have a picnic as the guests
Of the Famous Palace Bar.

And swimming parties too;

Or that famous German Brew,
Just “talk, don't walk” we do the rest
And it is not too far,
In 40 winks we land the goods
From the Famous Palace Bar,
