This city should really experience building boom after
the war. Aside from business and industrial edifices

NoN-RsSENTIAL KISSING

There's lots Of nom essential kissing"
A local medieo remarks,
And germs which otherwise were miss

This doctor knows his occupation,
The potent potion and the pill.
But his remarks on oscuiation
Won't rid the race Of human ILL.,
He mentions kisses which a woman
Bestows on others OF her ser;
A willful waste, no doubt but human,
And one which need not greatly vex.
For that is gentle woman's notion
OF strategy, good form and tact,
A camouflaGe for true emotion,
Which may not readily Be sacked.
And there are other wasted Kisses
Which serve no useful end, it's true,
Nor cause the grand and lofty blsses
Which properly are kissing's due.
The wifeiy peck. both cold and formal.
Which greets tho hen-pecked married

When welded life Ia sane and normal,
And love become an also ran.
The smacks the helpless infant suffers,
Along with Group and prickly heat,
From doting aunts and other buffers
Who think the baby Just too sweet
The bearded monsrch's osculatlon
With other prince or potentate,
Or ruler OF another nation.
Who thus adjusts affairs OF state.
