An Ode to Amos Quito.

--egF4.
Amos Quito is a fcller who is always
buzzln' round
And his finnish lyric tenor is most
unweicome sound.
He is always up and doing and he's
strong in limb and lung
And who courts his fond attention /,
quite certain to be stung.
Amos Quito is not bashful and he
butts in everywhere.
When they hold the proudest func-
,tlons, you will find him always
r.. there. ,s,...
Social lines, to him, mean nothing
and he's always on the hike.
And he calls upon the rich folk and
the poor folks just alike; ,.,
Amos Quito is not easily discouraged,
though perhaps
No one else that you have heard Of
gels SO many social slaps.
II you shoe him from your party, It's
pretty even chance
He'll come back and bring his sisters
and his cousins and his aunts. !.
Amos Quito is willing worker and
he never gets his fill.
There is no one who can dodge him
when he once presents Dis bill.
When 1t comes to keen persistence
he's got all he needs and more.
Amos Quito is the undisputed cham.
