Eliza Ann Fadcogus is the hostess for to-
night,
1t is a leap year party honoring Lycurgus
White.
The courtship of the couple has been pond
erng by this burg
For four long years, and every one has
found some fault with 'Curg.
He's beaud her Sunday evening, and on
Monday night as well.
Also on Tuesday, Wednesday and on
Thursday; truth to tell;
And Friday night he'd spark her, with
his glad to see you grin,
And Saturdays, of evenings, he would
kind O. happen in
But somehow, 'Curg has never had the
courage yet to "pop,"
And people kind of wondered if some time
he wouldn't stop.
Eliza Ann Fadcogus is the hostess for to-
night;
1t is a leap year party-and the only guest
is White.
