There used to be q man VINO lived
In Skeetersville, n. j.
Who opened ND n little store
And went TO making hay.
The country round about was good.
The people sure but slow,
And Ellington. which was his name
Set out to make them 60.
The old time town OF Skeetersville
Was dead enough TO skin
When Ellington took hold-but, say
He got a hold to win.
He introduced q line Of goods
That made the people stare,
And when they came to take n look
They found the prices fair.
And then they bought. and business
doomed,
And Ellington did more
Than any body ever did
In that town with a store.
But what he did vas not enough
To suit his growing size,
And Ellington of Skeetersville
Just yearned to advertise.
He yearned to see his dazzling ads
GLOW in the business sky.
Attracting people everywhere
To come his way to buy.
But 10! the town of Skeetersville.
IT'S pity TO confess,
Had never felt a long felt want
To have a printing press.
So Ellington turned to at once
To e what he could get,
And pretty soon the people had
The S~keetersville Gazette.
And Ellington was in It., big:
Such advertising ways,
Were never known in Skeetersville
AS Billington's displays.
The old time merchants saw the ads
VI Ellington, and they
Began to use a line or two
To make their business pay.
The town began to get alive,
It's shell began to crack,
And every now and then you'd hear
The moss fall off It's back.
And outside people on the look
For better means to fill
Their empty Golfers, thought they'd
take
A chance at Skeetersville.
The town was growing good and strong
Another paper came
To meet the advertisers wants
And spread the city's fame.
The town grew IN. No power could
thwart
The enterprise and will
OF Ellington ct al. and yet
They called 1t Skeetersyille
Then Ellington broke loose and said
The old name orgh' to 20.
And something be adopted which
Would let the whole world Enow.
1t was a busting sort Of town.
Where things wera OH the run
And in two minutes Skeetersville
Was changed to Ellington.
