Well, Father; well. I'm glad you're home.
1t seemed as if you'd never come
Back from th' Association.
The time just stopped and wouldn't jog
And was lonesome as dog.
And Tige was lonesome night and day
Why. what d lot you've had to say
About tn Association.
Such slang, too. father declare!
At your aye too, with your gray hair.
Come, get them clothes off. Spry and fine.
SO can hang them on the line.

This smell of smoke will all go way,
You've talked so fast. an said so much.
But that pink tea you didn't touch,
Nor mention but feel 'fraid.
That some of it just turned your head
Up to til Association. &
so you're a HoO-HOO cat. you say.
You don't seemed changed much. any way,
Except you talk amaZln gay
About tn Association!
Now, if a passle of young girls
The age for bows and beauX and curls,
And kitteniSh and full of play
Had gone and named themselves that way
The HOO-HOO cat'-and paid some fees
And had night meetings and degrees.
A man would be the very one
To ScOld at all that foolish fun.
Just like a lot OF gigglin' girls
Without no sense inside their curls.'

But travelin' is so dreadful dear!
And then, my clothes are shabby toe;

What's that you say? This black silk dress
You bought so low 1 couldn't guess
The price! And you have made a sale
OF that black walnut, every rail
For bansterS and n0welpoStS
At good advance on what it costs
Up to tn Association!
And what was that? Another year
The wives are asked to go! o dear!
A big excursion did you say?
Well, after all it seems to pay
Coin to tn Association.
I wonder now, if could get
That silk dress made the time they set
For Conference. just ought to 60
To hear the bishop preach, you know,
1t beats all you could buy so low
Up to tn Association.
