On Sunday


Behind the counter all week Chollie
measures out the tape;
His hardest task to pleasant look and
not to snooze or cape.
The sun shines bright, the air Is hot; the
whole world cries: Come out
And have a little fun, old boy!'f But he
must be about
His job of selling dry goods through the
bargain-counter rout-
Till Sunday. But Sunday,
Chollie is free to play.
In outing clothes,
He gaily goes,
or to the beach so gay.
And Maggie, his Maggie,
Joins in his little fun;
No millionaire can cen compare
To Chollie, when work is done!
Mewed in an office, Maggie sits. a-tap-
ping at the keys;
The boss-a dictatorial chap-may lounge
about at ease;
But she must take dictation fast, and
letters write with care,
The while her face is burning and the
curl comes from her hair;
And all the world seems stuffy hot, and
life is very bare
Till Sunday. But, Sunday,
Maggie is free that day.
In peekaboo
And swell hat, too,
Isn't our Maggie gay?
With Chollie, her Chollie.
Down to the beach they 60;
No lady fair ear with Mag compare;
10 Chollie. why she's the whole
show! w. H. G.

of the bake shops on the East side
Resolutions were adopted declaring

grounds.
