THE GOOD PEOPLE.
By Berton Braley.

When girl goes wrong we mouth
and pirate
OF how she "fell from her high es-
tate"
OF womanly virtue-and lightly sold
Her body and soul for a bit of gold.
And the moralists lift their eyes and
sigh
That she dropped so low from a place
so high.
And nine times out of ten that place
Was a. job that Slapped all her youth
and grace,
That starved her body and wa<ped
And took her joy of life as toll.
A Job scarce paying her board and
rent
In a shabby place in tenement.
That left her, when her week was
done,
With never a. cent for decent fun;
A job that the devil must have
planned
TO put temptation on every hand
That shut her out from her rightful
share
OF love and sunshine and Gods fresh
air.
"~sssSE
Well, that is the high estate we give
To girls who honestly try to live
In ways of virtue and paths Of good
Which we properly ask for woman
hood"
We let them starve in their rectitude
And our cries of censure are loud
and long,
When a girl goes wrong.
