Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1914-03-27

telegraph their trusty. Congressman
for seed. the whippoorwill at dead of
night will run the pleasant scale of
spring, the tax assessor will delight
in prying into everything, the playful
mole will raise his crest in green EN-.
bossing on the lawn, the master frog
will wake from rest and wave his or
chestral baton, the ssssafras will
cleanse the blood and tune the plumb
ing up to plumb, the depth and tex
ture of the mud, will make the good
roads movement hum, the sober minded
will revert to sacrifices. hits and
hunts, and the lady in the two-slit
skirt will show US. both her legs at
once.
The splendor of the Easter hat will
match the beauty of the skies, and all
good men will go to bat and do their
best to swat the flies. The crowd
around the soda fount will. thicken
as the weather warns, the castle walk
will take the count and perish in the
DEVILS arms, the railroad folder will
beguile the fisherman with pleasant
lies. the season will consent to smile
on Panamas and summer ties, the
farmer will sedately tool his autoplow
around the field. the bobolink beside
the pool will sing for summertime re-
vealed, the moving van will rumble
past with home strapped down upon its
back. the COW will show lighter cast
of red velour along the back. the lark
Will make Caruso sound like someone
sharpening skate, the gentle rain
will pat the ground and make the gar
den vegetate, the Young mans fancy
will descry an angel straying from
the skies, the spinster will begin to
sigh and think of forming other ties,
on Times eternal camping ground
the Rio Grande will wind about, and
the Mexicans will lay around and let
the chickens fight it out.
The puzzled Congress will debate
The truth and ethics as to tolls,
And angry words, shall indicate
The perturbation of our souls,
The President shall lead the way
For those who think we should
reverse,
The opposition lltdisplay
Its manners to the universe,
What Hay and Panncefote thought
was writ u. ~.
Well each of US in turn construe,
And if the Democrats don't split
They get the hot-cross bun for
true.
The first day of April will be All
Fools Day. Fools caps will be
worn very low this year, and will rest
upon the right ear with the raking
effect of the new women's hats. Am
bassador Page will be big Joker, and
the Mexican navy will be little joker.
There will be almost no jokes at home
this year.
April 10 will be Good Friday, when
it is confidently expected that Presi-
dent Huerta will be good and resign.
Easter will come on the 18th. The
Easter styles are very becoming this
year. Skirts are to have Sits
on each side. to keep the legs
ventilated, and hats, which have been
pressing the right ear down against
the head and combining hearing to the
left side, are to have a gi,e-hole in
them through which the ear rendered
useless by last years styles is to come
out in an upright position. On the
18th the anniversary of the beginning
of the American War of independence
will be celebrated by the suffragettes,
who will assemble in Washington and
throw bricks at the White House. The
moon will be full. on.the. 10th.
Then May will come. with flowers
bright,
To fascinate and charm US.
And all the wedding gifts in sight
