The following brief "pome," written b.
the Leaders special poetic tiend, relates tt
a little incident occurring at the Merchant
hotel Thursday evening:
Two maidens fair with dark brown hair
Laid laughing and chatting in bed;
Their rattlng noise disturbed the boys
Yet they swear not Il word was said!
They Uttered and laughed, talked and cllafIed
With each other rs friends of yore,
While the transom hung on its pivots swung
Wide open above the door,
George, going to bed, quietly said,
'lf there's any fun to be had
I'll take a hand in, and darn my skin
Ii care if they do get mad"
And saying this with a grinning hiss,
A large towel dripping wet
He hurled through space and hit the face
of a gal who is swearing yeti
And the boys all ''got," you bet.
