The Bill Collector


When living seems a pleasant
task, our spuds and things are
sprouting, and when we sit and
grandy bask and dream about
that outing, our happiness is brush
ed aside as by a chilly specter. We
pull the shutters down and hide.
Alas, the bill collector!
He's not bit inclined to fun,
he's not jolly nelghbor. Although
his work is always dun" he's al
ways at his labor. His heart is
hard as polished brick, he's very
far from chummy; the way he
hounds me makes me sick, he swears
he'll get it from me. His faith in
humankind is low, his manner is
forbidding, and when | spring my
tale of woe he grumbles, "Quit your
Kidding"
No sympathy is in his soul, no
milk of human kindness; excepting
when ] flash roll, he suffers color
blindness. He's blind to al my
scalding tears and deaf to all my
pleading. Iwish they'd give him
thirty years, the news would make
good reading.
He robs our daily lite of cheer
and adds unto our onus; each time.
we walk down street we fear he'll
chase US down and bone US. How
often he has played the fly and spoil
ed our cup of nectar, for when our
goose is honking high, we meet the
bill collector.
He gives our sunny hearts a chill
and turns our joy to sorrow; he says
you'll either pay this bill or SUIT
will start tomorrow" Attempts
to joke are out of place, our shafts
of wit are blunted; we rue the day
we ran our face, which now looks
drawn and haunted. And when at
last they tack some wings upon our
dorsal sector, we'll bid goodbye
to earthly things and foil the bill
collector.-EX.

A batter whose name showed him
To be of Polish descent, had reached
first base. A German went to bat 4
pitcher with a French name pitched
the ball and the German knocked a
high fly. A Jew nan after it and
dropped it. He picked the ball up and
threw it to an Englishman at second.
The Englishman threw the ball to an
Trishman on first and a double play
was made and the German and the
Pole were declared out.
From where the spectator sat he
could have reached out his hand and
touched a German, a Russian, a Jew,
an Italian and a negro. Several ne
groes were seated together watching
the game The umpire made a deci-
sion. One of the negroes did not
agree with the decision and he said

81 the "empire" was wrong, and he
took 81 from his pocket. An Ameri-
can in soldiers uniform took the bet
and covered the 50. The soldier ex-
planned the rule to the negro. and the
negro said:

Then the American put his own 50
back in his pocket and returned the

negro. What other athletic game could
be played in this world with such rep
resentation of peoples as are to be
found at a baseball game? The best
of it all is that the soldiers having in
tIoduced it overseas. it now promises
to be an all-over-the-wOrld game
