4 Crying Need.

WASTED-A new name for Prunes
Gathered 81 the fair hands of beautiful tropic
ids. preserved for the of man by a be-
n!gn sun, shipped into the mart jewels from
Fruitland. Prupes have fallen into disveputc.
Forced into boarding house menus TO spoil
the appetite for chicken, the Prune has be-
come a Dietary Intrusion. Anybody get
another dish of prunes, but TO him who
darcs ask for second helping OF white meat!
Wherefore, by the name OF Prunes this most
glorious fruit, good for everything that ails
US, has become n scapegoat and a pariah. tho
thing needed TO save it for Mankind is a new
Name.
What, fellow Humans. shall we call the
Prune?
