PARASITE

Do you sit on your musty, dusty rusty,
And hope some crusty, lusty trusty,
Will come along to bear your strife;
Or don't you care for better life?
It's not your funeral! That what you said
We got you, Pal, you've been too long dead!
Do you sit on your mouldy, roly-poly,
Looking all soulful and boldly holy,
Confessing the worlds an awful mess,
Someone should clean it up, you guess.
Not you'll Then, who? Are you void and null,
From feet to hps-and hips to skull?
Do you sit on your hardy, lardy suet,
If things go wrong, proclaim you knew it,
Always the critic, ready with blame,
Nothing on Earth you wouldn't defame;
Check on it, friend, if sound too lurid,
Yours is sad music flowers and fluid!
Do you sit on your mushy, slushy plush,
With fingers to lips for shushy hush,
When somebody else is taking the gaff,
Talking his head off in your behalf?
Do you worry and fret about his religion,
Man, you're the deadest kind of pigeon!
Do you sit on your humpty -dumpty lump,
Like an old bullfrog on bumpy stump,
Do you moan and croak at guy with grit,
Just because his teeth can take the bit?
Listen Brother, the latest report is:
You're sittin' around with rigor mortis!

Men Who Lead Labor:

''One thing the Company should realize and appreciate is the fact that the Union made running a bus or a trolley a job worth having to- day and that's why it still has enough men. In the last war, l can remember the Company keeping trolIeys in the barn because the mo- tormen were focking to better pay ing work in the war industries"
 That's what Sam Curry says today and one of the men who has contrl- buted most to making the job worth having is Sam, now serving his sixth consecutive 2-year term as business agent of Division 281 of the Amalga- mated Association of Street, Electric Railway and Motor Coach Employees.
 Sam who Mrs. Curry declares is more Irish than the Irish, was born in Albany in 1892, came to the Elm City and started on the trolleys in 1913. He became a full-time official for the Union before buses began replacing the trolleys.
 VICE-PRESIDENT OF C.L.C.
 Now vice-president of the New Ha- ven Central Labor Council, he has been a delegate to the body off and on since 1920, with 6-year hitch as trustee. He has also been member of 281's executive board and its presi- dent.
 TROLLEYMEN'S BALL
 Sam says the younger union members are pushing the Divisions second annual dance and they should succeed in getting the young people of the City to the affair. He heard Blue Barron over the radio the other night and he liked him. Barron also has handsome singer who has plenty of juice.
 ssAnd his music of yesterday and today will be just right for the crowd which will have plenty of people from both,'' Sam chuckled.
 Sam hopes the contract renewal will be signed and plotted in time to make the dance in the N. H. Arena, Satur- day night, April 25, victory dance. It's for a good cause.-the relief fund
