Uncle SiIas and Basketball.

hev lived right here in Dallas
Some forty year or more,
And things hey been rather quiet with me
Since Sary went on before.
My children are grown up around me,
And seem an old man quite;
thought there was nOthin to live for
Until something happened the other night
My grandson, Tommy, he goes to school,
And is kind of lively boy,
Likes to run and romp and play
Jist chuck full of sperit and joy.
Well that boy kept arter me
For to go some place with him,
He said a game was goin to be played,
And mentioned some one named "Jim."
Well, to humor the boy, went with him
To see jist what he meant,
And I'll tell you right now, my friend,
I'm powerful glad that | went.
The old woolen mill was crowded
Sich a crowd you never did see,
And some OF my old cronies were there
Who are ever bit as old as me.
The wimmen we're talkin and BLOWN horns
Men were yellin to beat the band,
One feller was standin out on the floor
holdin "A ball in his hand.
Two half-dressed boys stood close by him
With four more at each end,
Then Tommy says to me, says he,
"They are gttin ready to begin"
"They air the players" he explained to me
"Now list watch the red men win"
Jist then the man threw up the ball.
And you'd orter see them boys sail in.
There was whirlin bunch Of arms and legs
Once an a while you'd see the ball,
saw they was tryin' to throw it in net
That was hangn' at the end OF the hall,
by and by she went into the net,
Then heard Tommy yell "goalP'
And while the people were yellin like mad
Some one punched the ball out with pole
Then they come back to the center agin,
The man threw the ball up once more,
And you should have seen those foolish boys
A tumbin' around on that floor,
BY and by begin to get excited
And next time she went into the net,
was up on my feet shoutin'
The loudest one there, I'll bet,
And when come tony senses
was wavin' my arms like a fail,
While Tommy was hayin dreadful time
A pulin' at my coat tail.
Pretty soon got quieted down
And jist watched the game smilin',
Only now and then I'd get excited like
And find my blood bilim.
When finally the game was over,
And Tommy said our team had won
iist yelled with the rest OF em
Till all the shoutin' was done.
Then went home with Tommy
A feelin as good as you please
So good that gave him quarter
without his ever havin' to tease.
These basket ball games will do you good
And all the old chaps should go,
For the very next game that we have here
win find me in the bHld-headed row.
