THE town GOSSIP

THERE WERE several of US.
IN THE drug store.
TAKING A drink.
AND TALKING as usual.
WHEN HE came In.
AND | don't believe.
HE WAS day over five.
AND HIS head.
CAME ON a level.
WITH THE top.
OF THE soda fountain.
AND THE clerk asked him.
WHAT HE wanted.
AND HE murmured.
AN ICE cream cone.
AND THE clerk gave him one.
AND THE boy put down.
A NICKEL on the fountain.
AND STARTED to walk OF.
WHEN THE clerk stopped him.
AND TOLD him.
THAT ICE cream cones.
COST TEN cents each.
AND HE looked at the cone.
AND THEN at the clerk.
AND 1T was plain to see.
THAT HE was puzzled.
AND EMBARRASSED.
AND DIDN'T know.
WHAT TO do about it.
AND HE'D already taken.
A BITE out of the cone.
AND | believe.
THAT IN another minute.
THE TEARS would have come.
AND IN the crowd.
WAS MIKE Dorset.
AND MIKE spoke up and said:
THAT'S ALL right, sonny.
TIL GIVE him.
THE OTHER nickel.
AND YOU go ahead.
AND EAT your cone
AND THE boy looked at him.
IN THE manner.
THAT I like to have folks.
LOOK at me.
AND I'LL bet.
THAT HE went home.
AND TOLD his mother.
A CONDITIONING man.
CAME TO his assistance.
WHICH WOULD be doing Mike.
AN AWFUL injustice.
| THANK you.
