Absolute knowledge I have

Heard a policeman on his beat,
Say to laborer on the street,
That he had a letter just last

Written in the finest Greek,
From a Chinese Coolie in Tim
IbuctOo,
Who said the niggers in Cuba
knew,
OF a colored man in Texas
town,
Who got it straight from a cir
Gus clown,
That a man in Klondike heard
the news,
From a gang of South Ameri-
can Jews,
About somebody in Borneo,
Who heard of a man, who
claimed to know,
OF a swell society female rake,
Whose mother-in-law will un-
dertake,
To prove that her seventh
husbands niece,
Has stated in a printed piece,
That she has a son who has
friend,
Who knows when the war is
going to end.

private nature to record on the card

on the purchase of Liberty Loan

The question of authority for such
action has been raised and its le-
gality is also questioned, and some
of the comments heard are rather
lurid, the position being taken by
some that an attempt is to be made
