When Father Rode the Goat.

Mount Vernon Qll.) News.
The house is full of arnica
And mystery profound;
We do not dare to run about
Or make the slightest sound
We leave the big piano shut
And do not strike q note;
The doctors been here seven times
Since father rode the goat.
He joined the lodge a week ago
Got in at A. NJ,
And sixteen brethren brought him home,
Though he says he brought them.
His wrist was sprained, and one big rip
Had rent his Sunday coat
There must have been lively time
When father rode the goat.
He's resting on the couch today
And practicing his signs.
The hailing signal, working grip
And other monkeyshines;
He mutters passwords meath his breath,
And other things he'll quote
They surely had all evenings work
When father rode the goat.

All gold and red and blue;
a hat with plumes and yellow braid,
And golden badges, too.
But somehow when we mention it
He wears look so grim
We wonder ii he rode the goat
Or ii the goat rode him.
