Otto's Auto.

Young Otto bought an auto, which he
ought to not have done
Till he had studied fully how an auto
ought to run;
But Otto didn't do it, so he had ham
self to thank
That when Otto cranlled the auto, why
young Otto was the crank.
For Otto left the auto with the lever
pushed TO go
When he ought tc have reversed il,
with the power shut off, YOU
know;
So when Otto cranked the auto the
auto gave a jump,
And landed Otto sprawling with an
automatic thump.
But Otto grabbed the auto as the auto
autoed by,
Then Otto and the auto down tne
street did fly;
And at speed that aut5 the makless
Otto whirled
Like an automobile autocrat who
thinks he owns the world
While the auto-hating public stood and
watched that auto rash
Till il ran against a lamp-pOSt with a
most terrific crash!
Then they sadly laid poor Otto, who
had lest his auto zest,
Where the autos cease from troubling
and the Ottos are at rest.
L'Envo:
Now in this auto story, with its sad
and fatal turn.
There is a moral hidden which we
surely ought to learn;
No Otto ought to auto till he knows
the auto rules,
Fer an automatic auto is no. a toy for
auto fools.
