Lieutenant George McCabe. The
fact that McCabe is a lieutenant

Mr. Donahue explained before he

Two Of the most prominent men
that ever went up in a aeroplane

Until they a lovely creature,
Picked up rock and knocked her down.
And dragged her screaming. to the preacherl
I've often thought that if today
One might knock down an Aphrodite

And motor rides, and flowers and candyI
And then again | think perhaps
Those yarns of how young folks were mated
Were penned by prehistoric chaps
Who probably exaggerated.
I've often wondered. as | sat
Perusing these delightful pages
If girls could change as much as that
Despite the countless passing ages
For since the days of Mother Eve
was never safe TO go wooing
Without much by your leave
If She informed you; Nothing doing
And therefore | begin to fear
That these Siluran romances
Which believed for many year
Were nothing than pleasing fanciesI
