THE AVERAGE NAN.

Oh, the Average Mans a ubiquitou|
cuss.
He is popular. too, with the mob
He doesn't make any particular fuss
But can always be found on the job
His knowledge is wide and convincl
ing besides,
That is merely part of his plan,
And to walk round the country with
seven-league strides
Is the gait of the Average Man.
Suppose there's a difficult question
of state
Where giants oratorical be;
In the lengthy debate his opinions
have weight
That would simply amaze you and
me.
When the speaker concludes in a
glorious blaze,
Then imagine, if only you can,
The worth of that quite Indispensable
phrase:
As it looks To the Average Man"
The publicist, too, drags him in by
the heels
Whenever he's in a tight place:
He says mid the glamour that over
MIN steals.
I'm not stating my side of the
case "
\ broader and more comprehensive
view
As the nations horizon | scan
is logical, so | present it to you
AS it looks to the Average Man
Who is he. what is he, where is he?
In vain
We search through the land up and
down;
Somewhere he's enjoying, afar from
the strain,
His perfectly well earned renown
And so, in the heated political fight,
We hear from Beersheba to Dan
That phrase so compelling it never
grows trite:
LAS it looks to the Average Man"
