Bill. old boy: to pay your dues,
April first. the present year,
Or absent yourself from here,
If you pay your dues, old boy,
You may come and here enjoy
That were planned for me and you:
All the comforts, good and true,
But IL you are thoughtless-like.
You must other quarters strike,
For the Eiks who hold these seats,
Have to show they have receipts.
So get wise, Bill, or you loose.
And hand US your merry dues.
