"Court" IS a termination limited
by the grandeur of the establishment
to which it is applied. Nobody would
ever think of calling any home court
unless it were really magnificent
"Ochre Court" and Georgian Court"
are good illustrations of this. Manor
and hall" are also bit pretentious
although that does not seem to have
occurred to the musician who named
his modest cottage Melody Manor.

.rHE SWEET HOME LINE.

THE SWEET HOME LINE.
The husbands the locomotive,
The engineers the wife;
With her hand upon the throttle.
She saves or wrecks his life.
Her CHEEKY laughter is the oil
That smooths the way for daily toll.
He runs upon the sweet home line,
But sometimes meets a grade,
When she must oil to help him up
The tracks so badly laid
For friction's caused by discomfort,
And cross words prove an accident.
Thus. when they reach life's sum
NIT high.
Together down they glide
Smoothly into the station bright,
Happy and satisfied.
So, wives, through danger do your
part,
And oil the engine from your heart.
