Corn POne.

Some loyal women from the south

pone, the kind one pushes in his
mouth and bids farewell to grief and
groan. All kinds of bread are being
made to take the place of wheaton

around the nations cooking stoves.
I've eaten bread composed of rice,
I've eaten bread they made of bran
and some was punk and some was
nice and some was but an also ran.
I've eaten stuff they called cornbread
the kind that helps to win the war;
and 1t outweig he'd a bar of lead and
tasted like excelsior. Down IN the
south they make corn pone that
soothes the soul, it is so nice; a
pampered monarch on his throne
might envy one who has a slice.
If had southern pone to eat |
would not care finetooth comb if
all the mills quit grinding wheat un-
til the speckled COWS come home.
Anon a northern woman cries, II
know just how that pone is made;
I've been down south and l am wise
to all the secrets of the trade" And
| then she tries to show her skill and
makes cornbred that l would like to
shovel into Kaiser Bill until his
works went on strike. We can, t

loyal southern dame would travel
