IN THE OLD TIME

When l was young shilling was
pretty hard to get; for hours man
went drilling in pools of honest sweat
before he'd fairly earned it, and when
he drew his tin, twas seldom that he
burned it, or idly blew it in. At
Christmas time he'd holler and make
some kopecks fly; and he would spend
a dollar the Fourth Day of July. And
when the three-ring circus came lum-
bering to town. with CRAFTS and fakes
to work us, he'd happily blow crown.
Then having had his riot. he to his
work returned, and, strictly on the
quiet, he picked all he earned And
when life's winter found him, it didn't
find him broke; he'd comforts all
around him, and greenbacks in his
poke. But now such sane endeavor,
such sense, we vainly seek; the Fourth
is with us ever, and Christmas once
a week The moneys coming easy;
with equal ease it goes; the toiler, flip

he blows his wad today. Cheer up!
Well soon be busted! A panic's on
the way! Walt Mason.
