LINES TO MILDRED.
Mildred, I've known you for ever so long,
Even since you were kid about seven.
Showed you-in school-why examples were wrong,
Known your opinions from Hades to Heaven
Late as this spring was next to your stuff,
Wise to your habits, abilities, fitness
So, in your latest there's something muff,
Somethng-on Thursday-to which was witness.
Lady, saw you in uniform gray.
Nurses they say is the garb you wearing,
Driving popular ear Of today ~
And, from your pace you were out for an airing.
Mildred, you may be qualified nurse,
Qualified somehow that's not of my knowledge;
But inquire in more or less verse
Which was the training school, hospital college?
Maybe it's driving in France you intend,
Maybe you've learned about cars since December;
Learned their construction from fan to rear end,
Studld adjustment on every member.
Lady, your work is wonderful thing
WonderfuPs right, with no hopings maybes,
E But, ere you bask in the praises I'd sing
ho0 IS 1t striking your spouse and the babies?
Lying in bed time dshonored hab-on Sunday morning,
lately exalted to popular melody with Scotch burr by Lauder

would come Monday no man "0oo ~''n
Monday If you are curious, is payday.
