BACK FROM VACATION.

Back from my summer vacation,
In the noisy old town once more,
Away from the vicious mosquitoes
And the chiggers that sting and bore,
With my neck all raw and bliStered
And my nose as red as a beet.
! find that the city is welcome
And that life in town is sweet.
Back from my summer vacation,
Away from the worms that creep,
And the EnatS that crawl down my neck
band,
And bother me while | sleep.
Afar from the flies and tn" spiders
And the June bugs that biff and pelt.
| am glad TO get back from the country
and the loneliness I have felt.
Back from my summer vacation.
And the SUGEy old stuff to eat,
Where Tt StauTant zeal is a pleasure
And a table d'hotC is treat:
Where there's something to do besides
ErumblC.
And something to do besides wait:
Where I get my papers each morning
And they're never whole day late
Back from my summer vacation.
In the good old town once more
Afar from the OppresSiV" silence.
To tho rush and the r"ut and roar.
In the city there's something DONG,
There's joy in the meet of might
And the soul expands with the struggle
And grows in the shock Of ilght.
