1t Pays to Advertise
The Goldfish lays million eggs,
And the useful hen but one,
But the Goldfish never cackles
To tell what she has done.
And so we praise the useful hen,
And the Goldfish we despise,
Which only goes to prove how much
1t pays to advertise.
It's time to begin thinking of your
Christmas advertising in The Repub-
lican.
