a confident air and in measured tones
recited:
A singing pain is in my arm,
AS from my sleep / waken,
But cruel pain, you bring no harm,
My vaccinate has taken.
Col. Lem Mckee at this juncture
crossed over and shook hands with
Col. Alternately and thanked him for
his motion to limit the poems to four
lines.
Col. ], o. Cooper wiped tears of
joy from his eyes and remarked to
Col. Sam Buckner that any father
should be proud of such son.
Col. Wallace Kelly, full of senti-
ment and poetic fervor, next took
the floor. Fresh from recent histri-
onic triumphs, his poem displayed
the genius of an actor in every line.
In a deep voice he said:
Hands off," she cried in accents
clear,
AS Harry's arm encircled Kate,
Don't hold me quite so close, my
dear,
You'll hurt my vaccinate."
The fierce command in the open
ing line, softening into the pleading
request in the last, made such pro-
found impression that Col. Ed.
Blakemore instinctively shielded his
sore arm with his right hand. 1t
looked like Col. Kelly had struck the
bulls eye, but the judges calmly
waited for the closing poem:
Col. Bob Woodbridge next sprang
a great surprise on his friends.
They knew that he was pretty good
all-round man, but they little dream
ed that he was the poet he proved to
be. Blushing like a girl graduate,
he warbled this ditty:
The beauty Of her rounded arm,
She vowed she would not mar,
And yet the vaccination took
Where did she put the scar?
Even Col. Alternately joined in the
applause, and without leaving their |
seats, the judges unanimously de-
cided in favor of Col. Woodbridge.
The meeting was hastily adjourn
ed and the members gathered !
around to congratulate him on his
victory.

M 100. ~ rs Club was call
NM zezz=sI&SSN ed to order by
Col. Bill BAN
berger. AS the Colonel raped for
order with piece of wrapping pa
per, a solemn stiffness succeeded the
buzz of many voices.
Memory carried the members
back to the time when Col. Bamber
ger presided over the destinies of
the club, in the halcyon days before
airships were invented, when turkey
was only ten cents a pound.
Il have invited myself to preside
this evening" said Col. Bamberger,
because / feel like looking once
more upon this noble and knightly
landscape of diversified physiogno-
mics. l congratulate you upon the
unexpected pleasure that has come
to you" Saying which he settled
himself into his old place, with as
much ease and grace as ever a nickel
dropped into slot.
There were no objections and the
routine business was disposed of
with but little interest being taken
in the proceedings. Many members
had panied expressions on their faces
and a score or more had their arms
in sings.
As soon as the minutes had been
adopted, Col. Walter Southall, his
left arm disabled, arose and said
that it was evident that the meeting
needed something to put life into it.
Il am not feeling any too well my
self" he said, but l have motion
to make. We are all crippled more
or less with this scare of smallpox,
but want to propose that we give
the poets a chance even in the midst
of their sufferings. | believe there
are some frst-class flowers of rhetor-
ic that are blushing unseen in this
organization. l propose that we
offer weeks board at the pest
house as a prize for the best poem
on the subject of vaccination.
Second the notion" said Col.
T. M. Jones.
The motion was quickly passed
and Coils. L. w. Whitlow, M. D.
Kelly and T. M. Jones were appoint
ed as judges.
Five members arose when Presi-
dent Bamberger asked what poets
desired to compete.
The poems were to be off-hand
effusions and on motion of Col. Hen
ry Alternately, (who doesn't like
poetry they were limited to four
lines each.
Col. Walter Southall was cheered
by every one as hea ose and repeated
this gem:
He rolled my sleeve up higher still,
Above the elbow joint,
And jabbed my arm as if to kill,
And then he scored a point.
Vociferous applause followed this
reading, as the elocutionists call it.
during which Col. Crit Anderson
stepped on a banana peel and slipped
out Of the door.
Nothing dismayed by the hit Col.
Southall had made, Col. Burch Bas-
sett struck tragic attitude and said:
/ To arms! To arms! the doctor cried,
Prepare to meet thy cruel fate,
! The mandate has gone far and wide,
That every one must vaccinate.
In his martial ardor, Col. Ed
Buchanan, who has been to Japan,
yelled "Banzai for Bassett" and
offered to bet Is cents-a reckless
amount for Col. Buchanan-that
Col. Bassett would get the prize.
