Banner being raised in downtown Dayton, Ohio, after the Great Flood of 1913. The banner reads:
Cheer up!
We’ve had our time of flood and gloom.
We’ve neared the awful doors of doom.
And some have entered in;
But now the sun of hope peeps out.
Old trouble we can put to rout.
So grin, gosh dern it! Grin. -Luke McLuke
