Normalcy.

In all things normalcy is fine;
extravaganza in any line will
bring its punishment eftsoons,
and fill our lives with tears and
prunes. When normal pleasures
we pursue, there's no remorse,
there's naught to rue; we wake
up smiling at the dawn, and put
our bright green garments on,
and think of what gorgeous day
we had before we hit the hay.
But if we seek abnormal fun,
and with the brisk high rollers
run, and pour red poison in the
craw. ignoring MIR. Volstead's
law, at dawn we leave our
tumbled beds, and tie wet cloths
upon our heads, and view our
selves with deadly hate and
envy those who travelled
straight. A picnic party in the
glen, with lemonade and potted
hen; motor trip athwart the
lea, or by the shining silver sea;
some hours of fishing in the
stream, returning with string
of Dream; game of quoits be-
hind the barn, relieved by jest
and sprightly yarn; these hum
BILE joys are better far than tear
ing Volstead's rules ajar. Let
normalcy our motto be when
we would have a jamboree, and
we won't figure i'll the news as
tInhorn sports all stepped in
booze, and we'll live long and
have renown rejecting credit on
the town. WALT MASON.
