Nothing to Worry About

(Out of forty-seten staples it has
been found that three-petroleum
prunes and timothy hay haven't adj
vanced in price in the last year,
Surprising potatoes soar out of sight
And onions are costly and few:
While meat is so high that you hardly
can buy
Enough once week for a stew.
Though carrots and cabbages, par
ships and peas
Are sailing aloft like balloons,
You can stand the wolf off with
triumphant scott
By filling yourself with prunes.
And even if prunes, taken three times
day,
In time on your palate may pail
GAS they're likely to do in a fort
night or two,),
You don't need eat them at all.
Pick up the papers and turn to the
page
Of market quotations to-day,
And you'll see at glance there has
been no advance
In the price of nice timothy hay.
Of course you may weary of hay be-
fore long
(Some people don't like it bit),
But don't tear you hair in burst OF
despair,
For you still can keep healthy and
fit.
Cut out all the meat and the vege-
table chow,
And when you get ready to sup
Just fill up your mug from the kero-
sene jug
Petroleum hasn't gone up!

Twas the third month Of this year
and the 9th date
My dears, l am here to briefly relate
The l.. O. T. M. Of Orleans town got
the fad Of show in their pate,
So they choose a committee of three
that was all
And decided to have it at Maccabee
hall,
They decided a convention for anna
tuer minds
Was not very heavy and clothes they
could find
In some ones old attic, so the neigh
borhood climbed
From the cellar to house-top some old
relic to find,
they donated the clothes, cheerfully
paid for the show
For a jolly good time they expected
you know
For these ladies knew and so did the
rest
Twas the very first show and we all
did our best.
First came the practicing and oh,
sublime
To get all together, no, never a time
Our critic indeed needs a rousing
good cheer
Had it not been for her we'd flimmed
out of fear
/ tell you our credits worth some
thing to US,
We've got very good grace, or we'd
all raise fuss,
With the pretty things the bachelors
all say,
About our swell president who was
dressed llD so cav
Now there was Maud in her little pink
cap
Who tried to look prim while her cat
took a nap.
And Betsy Bobbit when she spoke her
song
Back of every ones handkerchief they
laughed, that was wrong
Just think of Violet Ruggles, the
snippy little upstart,
Who thought she'd got the doctor, it
most broke our hearts,
But Rachael Sharp exposed her, think
what fun it will be
To know she got the mitten, maybe
he'll take me.
l think if Gus had done some good
stunts,
He'd put every old maid in the box at
Put on the cover and turned out the
light,
And babe the audience hearty good
night.
But instead of that Frank stuck to
the rules,
The people all laughed, and the fools
played the fool
Irene she did sing and that's no mis-
take,
She surely deserves a good DEVILS
food cake.
Now, my dears, you all need your
names in rhyme,
May be someone more creditable will
take the time
And write something pretty which
you all should demand;
Written by poet and not a green
hand.
But the money we were after was
what drew us here,
And the peoples laughter was all
we wanted to hear;
For surely amateurs minds and we at
our ages
Must all go together to make up life's
stages.
Regular meeting Tuesday, April II.
We hope TO have as many members
present as possible.
