THE ONE ROOM SUITE

They are making, so they say,
Furniture that folds away,
So for mine-a home complete
A dainty little one room suite
First my rooms a parlor fair,
Piano, sofa, easy chair;
But when ] press a button near,
One and all they disappear.
In their place there comes in sight
A table, and a sideboard bright.
Six oak chairs are ready. Then
press the button near again.
My dining room now folds from view,
A bureau from the wall comes through
And from the ceiling overhead
Down comes a coy walnut bed
Last | turn my favorite switch.
The bedroom folds without a hitch,
A bath tub rises from the floor
My fats complete-who cares for
more,
