The Good Old Days

The old men were in anguish at the ways of modern youth. The lads of olden days, they say, were strong for right and truth, while all the youngsters nowadays are reckless and uncouth.
 But when the old men gather round where young men cannot hear, and speak about the olden days, their tales are mighty queer; they tell of midnight escapades, of gambling and of beer.
 They tell of frollics in the night, of parties wild and gay, and of their youthful capers in the morning cold and gray, and all the rude and reckless stunts they frown upon to- day.
 "500 Dogs to Be Given Banquet" Lucky dogs They will not have to listen to after-dinner speeches. No Wonder the Herring Are Pickled What makes the wild waves falter so And reel and stagger to and fro And rear it's foaming crest? Oh, can it be that somewhere nigh A shattered moonshine hulk doth lie. And each wave packs pint of rye Beneath a salty vest?
