The concert given by Burckhardt
band in the Court house park Thurs
day evening was a most betting final
to day Of enjoym ent. A large audi
ence listened to the enhancing strains
both old and young, and as to tn
girls, why
There were slim girls, grim girls.
sour girls and sweet,
Girls with beaux and pigeon toes
And number 'leven feet;
Lean girls and green girls.
Ia 'Skeeter" bar and shawl.
Thin and fat they all were at
The concert, great aud small.
There we're giggling and wiggling girls
And girls OF every age.
Girls with eyes like paradise,
And photographs Of rage;
city girls and witty girls.
And girls from of the farms
BuNom girls from Fennimure
With dpdeiets on their arms.
There were loud girls and proud girls
And girls of modest mien.
SHOUTING girls ana pouting girls
Were all about the green;
Old girls and cold girls
With hOmeiy mugs and fair
We're on parade beneath the shade
Where music filed the air
There were fat gills and fat girls
In camuric dress and gauze,
Pintug girls and whining girls
Who couldn't leave their Mas
Cunning girls and punuiug girls.
The fairest in the land
Mere out en- maSSe upon the grass
To hear the Burckhardt band.
There we're gritty girls aud bluHy girls
And girls just in their teens.
Girls that n ash and girls very brash
Whose papas have some means;
But take them altogether,
The world cannot compare
With Lancaster girls with bonnie curiS
When music fills the air.
