sense. Do You ADVERTISED

There was an old geezer,
And he had lot of sense
He started up a business
On a dollar eighty cents
The dollar went for stock.
And the eighty for an ad.
That brought three lovely dollars
In day, by dad!
Well. he bought more goods
And a little more space,
And he played that system
With smile on his face.
The customers fiocked
To his two by four,
And he soon had to hustle
For regular store.
Up on the square
Where the people pass,
He grabbed up corner
That was all plate glass.
He fixed up the windows
With the best that he had,
And told all about it
In half page ad.
He soon had them coming,
But he never, never quit,
And he wouldn't cut down
On his ads one bit.
And has kept things humping
In the town ever since,
And everyone calls him
