EVERYBODY DOES 1T.

EVERYBODY DOES 1T.
Old Bill Beet would scorn to cheat
His conscience is quite clean.
He'd never stoop TO trick or dupe
Or anything that's mean.
He's always been the best of men,
Right minded. fair and straight
But when he plays a hole in ten
His card records 1t Eight
Throughout the town is Maror
Brown
For honesty revered,
In all his days for wicked ways
His soul was never scared.
Device malign and base design
To him abhCrrent are,
But when he makes a hole in nine
He says Give me a par!"
The kin and kith Of Parson Smith
The widely known ID.
Are won't to swear that he's as
square
As all devines should be.
He breaches truth to erring youth
And other hayward folks,
But never on the links. forsooth
Does he count all his strokes.
I've never met an angel yet;
But If I do some day
And he and I beyond the sky
A friendly match should play,
As on we stroll from knoll 20 knoll
Engaged in play and talk
Each time he finishes a hole
I'll watch him like a hawk
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1921-10-31

DandeIion Greens.

DandeIiOn Greens.
Wen winter winds start in to blow
An buster, an tn ice an snow
Steps up to bid us howdydo
An let US know tn summers
through,
go put up tn winter screens
An long fer dandehon greens.
I sure would be a happy jay
IF some kind soul would find a way
To can up danhelons. too
An keep 'em tn winter through
Folks can pickle corn an beans
SO why not dandelion green's?
Many are tn hours I've toiled
To hev 'em wilted, stewed an boiled
Steamin' hot upon my plate;
[ tell you en- hardly wait
Now tibet tn winter hez set in
Till time fer green's comes back
agin.
Wen tn snow piles up in heaps
An moanin' winds give me tn
creeps
Awhirhn' roun tn corner there
Ablowin' snow flakes everywhere,
1 close my eyes on winter scenes
An dream o dandeIion green's.
