A Nation went to war against rather

who would go
To do the deeds of valor which the
crisis did require.
To help the French to take the trench
and do 1t under fire.
So Congress got together and the SEN

To raise million soldiers who
would put the foe TO shame,
And they quickly passed the matter
up with one complete accord,
To the Roundabout Committee and
the Circumlocution Board
Now the Roundabout Committee sat
and talked for weeks and weeks
On Methods of Preparedness among
the Ancient Greeks,
While the Circumlocution Board it
scratched its thoughtful double
chin.
Aid fingered late in wise debate on

A Patriot rushed in and cried. .The
Foe is at our Rate,"
But the Circumlocution Board replied
Just tell them please TO walt

yised by Senator Drool
To raise nine million soldiers thru
his Correspondence School"
Then the Patriot. who was hasty.
