Every time error gets II in the neck
II starts out to find a new method of
cure and to promote a new health fad
We can't realize that we actually
did suffer from n sunburnt summer
when we see the great drifts Of snow
that are clamoring to be lifted out OF
the path.
No other man ever likes TO be con.
WINGED that you are right. and he only
says he does TO cover up his chagrin.
Probably the most interesting people
in the world are those who find our
own little everyday affairs interesting
With some Of us just as soon as we
see what we want we don't want II
and are miserable because we can't
want something that we can't have.
