crochet hooks About as many GRO
Chef hooks went to the cooking
school last week as did pencils and

Nal Roses book -Four Leaf |clovers'1
is apropos Of the craze:
"Tis sad to think thats home sweet
home
Has lost It's subtle charm.
We fain would sail acrosse the foam
Or seek the humble farm.
The dear old place is filledswithIdoubt
Discussions and dismay
Since mother was fnvital out,
And learned to do crochet. M
No longer are the eveningsSspent
Within her big arm chair;
To seek the rest and sweet qcontent
Which always fingered there.
The sweetest flower, the rarest shook
Is but lump OF clay
Since mother bought herself aehook
And learned to do chochet.
There seems to be no place at all
For one to hang his hat.
We must not lean against thetwall
or sit on this or that
And one Is most afraid to look
At anything today
Since mother bought herselfea hook
And learned to do crochet.
Most everything around the' place
Looks strangely queer to me,
Festooned in yards. OF snowy lace
And jim-crack filigree;
And every erstwhile coy nook
Is decorated gay
Since mother bought herself aIhook,
And learned to do crochet.
