JIM HOYLE's MEMORY COURSE.

Rumor has it that JIM
HOYLE, genial chairman Of the
Almas Temple committee on ban
quets for the coming conclave,
has evolved a memory course
which will enable any man to
find his automobile after he has
parked it downtown. Jim has
tried to work the course off on
TOM FARRELL, chairman Of
the finance committee, but with
little success.

THE SPRING CLEANING BLUES

(Mr. TOyle.l
The spring days have descended
To bring us great delight,
But with all these beauties present
My home is now a sight.
Midst the hustle and confusion
The treasures that ! use
Are banished by dear wife
I've got those spring cleaning blues!
(Mrs. ToyIe.l
Spring is a wondrous season
have heard some people say
But to me it's not SO iwondrous,
As toll throughout the day.
/ ply the broom with Evigor,
And the only time / lose
Is to differ with my husband
I've got those spring cleaning blues !!
willie TOyle.)
The teacher said that springtime
Should be greeted with a song.
But though teacher is most learned,
i am sure that she is wrong.
My ma and pa are out of Sorts
They differ in their views;
Their argument makes spring seem
I've got those spring cleaning blues!

THE GREEN "BULL."

There was a policeman on q South
east beat
Who was walking down Eleventh
street.
There was a boy, not so fat or tall.
Who thought the cop might know 1t
all.
"a fire call I'll make him pull
To see II he Is really a bright bull"
Approaching the officer. as If to ad
mire,
He shouted across the bridge. There
In q fire"
The bull sent in the call, because he
was green
This is a true one for old Heard and
Seen.

The joys of the golden shore;
EverybOGly's cutting the CrOssings-
And I can jay-walk eVermore!"
