NEW YEAR GREETING FROM LovELocK.
When Lovelock people send their money,
No matter il il be for honey
Or something sweeter to them still,
Then pro.npt returns expect they will.
We like to read the DISPATCH news
To see the light it always throws
On the great questions of our time,
And for change, a little rhyme.
What disappointment then to leave
The DISPATCH staff, like others born
or human mothers, took rest
A day from journalistic zest.
They just renewed strength and pluck;
We VISA with 06 them luck,
Enous to nou isn the DISPATCH,
So We it twice "a week can catch.
Long live the DISPATCH. 1t will stay
Long live its CORES pondent gay,
And advertisers %ho pay most
OF ali in the subscribers host.
This may leave some subscriber out,
Foe Ns4t.a Veil give the loudest shout
And two for those VINO found can be
In L4ugelcci. aDd Wcilty.
