When the Frost Falls.

When the frost falls on the pumpkin And the folders in the shock, Comes the time the thrifty housewife Feels her duty is to knock, For as certain as time passing
 Moves the hands around the clock. Just so certain grows the gas bill
 When the frost falls on the shock. If the thrifty little housewife
 Would remember that the sun Saves her heat bill in the summer She would save herself the fun CD And the energy and effort
 That it takes to knock and knock, When the frost falls on the pumpkin
 And the folders in the shock.

NATURE
WONDERFUL
THE EFFICIENCY MAN.

The efficiency man isn't born one.
He's victim OF society. lie wants to
be an efficiency man for the same
reason a falla wants to be hermit
lie gets sore at mankind and gets
even with them by becoming an ef-
ficiency man. He's as popular with
the employees OF the company he's
efilciencing for as the time clock or
whistle time Monday morning. His
Job is to dope out ways TO get more
out of the working guys and save
money for the firm.
In warm weather he gets en- all
whistling so the firm can cut down
on the electric fan bill BY getting
the bOokkeepers to skip crossing the
rs and dotting the is in 10 years the
firm will have saved bottle OF ink.
He takes the rubber of the pen
ellis so the employees cant make mis-
takes. He'd even go so far as to get
the Office force TO let their index
hngernails grow long enough so they
can be trained to take the place OF
pens.
When a person has to sneeze he'd
have 'cm aim it so II would help
clean up the floor and make less
work for the janitor that night And
| he'd have a meter on the 1anltor
broom to register the number OF
strokes made so he could dock him
on the strokes saved by the sneezers
Employers, hear ye! The best piece
! OF efficiency shown would be to gel
rid of the wet hen efficiency man.
