Good Evening.

Friends, you've missed considerable, About food you don't know beans If along about this time
 You haven't had "mess" of greens. That's what they called them Down on the farm, guess, But most folks were agreed
 They were anything but mess. By greens we don't mean spinach, But dandelions tasty and bitter, The person who couldn't go few loads Was considered low down quitter. Cooked with hunk of pork We've heard the old folks tell, They were guaranteed to hit the spot, Quite bitter but oh, 50 swell. Nowadays they cultivate them, The markets play them up, Good as a tonic anytime
 When ready to dine or sup. Time was when at grandma's. You went out with short sharp Knife, You picked about bushel
 Were they good? you bet your life. So now that it's April,
 Let's substitute for carrots and beans, The most popular spring tonic, mess of dandelion greens.

Opportunities still beckon The way to success is not yet deadend street Two weeks ago George Batson was bus-boy in New York restaurant not the most stimulating occupation in the world Today he is the author of successful play starring Ruth Chaterton which opened to great applause in Amarillo Texas and seems in fair way to become hit Of course Batson must have had unusual abilities, but he must have had also unusual ambition and courage.
