A YEAR ago, or maybe more,
"A We noticed with profound misgiving
That everything began to soar
Connected with the cost Of living.
Beefsteak became so dear and rare
We had to get along without it;
Rents rose with every month, and there
Was nothing we could do about it
WE sought out an economist,
Informed him of the situation,
Exhibited our market list
And asked him for an explanation.
Said be: It's easy to explain:
The nations passing through crisis.
To fume and fret Is quite in vain;
The war, you know, has boosted prices.
PUT when the war was done last Fan,
1t struck US a BIT surprising
That prices didn't fan at all
Instead OF thai, they kept on rising.
Expenses mounted more and more;
We watched with troubled perturbation
The wolf, who sat outside our door
And grinned with eager expectation.
AGAIN We sought our learned friend
And said IN accents low and humble:
"The war, dear ar, Is at an end;
Pray, why do not expenses tumble"
He said: "You must not fume and fret.
Just keep your temper, my advice Is
The world is very much upset
And peace, you know, has boosted prices"
