The Put-it-Offs.
My Friend, have you heard of the
town of Yawn
On the banks of the River Slow,
Where blooms the Wait-awhile low-
er fair,
Where the Sometime-or-other scents
the air,
And the soft Go-easys grow?
1t lies in the valley of What's-the-use
In the Province of Let-'er-slide;
That tired feeling is native there
It's the home Of the listless I-don't-
care,
Where the Putiit-offs abide.
The Put-it-offs smile when asked to
work,
And say they will do it tomorrow:
And so they delay from Jay unto
day,
Till death cycles up and takes them
away,
And their families, starve, beg or
borrow.

Coal Famine at New Hampton.

New Hampton, Dec. New
Hampton is now facing a crisis, one
of the gravest which has been met
with for some time, owing to the fact
of the shortage of coal this fall. At
the eletcric light company's plant
there is only enough coal to operate
for 40 hours, with little chance of
having the supply repleted for some
time. The city has been cutting off
the load ON the plant by extinguish-
ing all the lights on the streets in
order that the coal supply might last
until more shipments arrive in the
city.
