LITTLE STORIES OF
THE STREET
By
The Man About TowR

One day in Washington,
Ny wife asked me
Why passers-by stopped
To stare at other
Passers-by,
After the manner OF the
Country town and not
A large city.
And ] told her,
That the city people
Never rubbered.
That it was the outside people,
Always on the lookout
For old friends from home.
For the world is wide,
And it matters not how far one
Travels, or how big the city,
One always meets with old friends.
Presently, she shifted
And gave me nudge and said
81 wonder if that
Elderly gentleman, with sno"
In his hair,
Thinks he recognizes
Friends from back home in
Those two pair Of
Grey silk stockings?"
