GRAN,NLA,s APPLE PIE.

Tn punkin' pie an puddin' an tn

But tn best OF all tn cookin tibet
hez ever took my eye
Is a good old thick brown crusted
piece e Gran'ma's apple pie.
I used to stand with mouth agape,
my eyes apOppin' glee
Awatchin' her while she prepared an
apple pie for me
An Oh! 1t filled my heart with Joy
TO see her fingers fly
Acrimpin' up tn edges OF a good old
apple pie.
You kin hev yore highbrow pastries.

They are fine for them tibet wants
EN- but I never liked 'em
much
l wouldn't walk a square for ell tibet
I could eat but I
Would run a mile for just a bite of
Granma's apple pie.
Her pies hain't highfalutin', an they
hain't so much for looks.
They're nothin' like tn pictures tibet
you see in cookin' books
But tn taste she puts into. EN-
can't describe it-don't know
why
But they's none kin hold a candle
to my Gran'ma's apple pie.

MUSIC WHILE SHAVING.

MISlC WHILE SbANlNG.
We read about the barber shop
Where flutes and viOlins
Resound the while the BARRIERS strop
Their blades and shave your chins.
Said we, with an expectant smile,
I'VE shall be soothed and cheered
To hear sweet music play the while
The man takes off our beard"
And so we settled in a chair.
And somnolent became:
The barber shaved us TO an air
That came from La Boheme;
He started thus-alas! but soon.
With an unholy din,
The orchestra changed its tune
Before he reached our chin.
Pucclnrs stuff a fine effect
Upon a barber has,
But he gets rough-as you'd ex-
pect-
When listening TO jazz;
And when from out the dreadful
place
We managed TO escape,
We had 70 go and swathe our face
In wide adhesive tape.
If you like US. should seek a shop
Where music's artful aid
Makes rhythmic the resounding
strop,
And guides the razor blade,
Be sure to make quite certain, as
You enter in the place,
That there is going TO be no jazz,
And you may save your face.
