YE OLDE WAYSIDE INN

Ye Ode WaySide Inn
Looks lonely and sad,
The place on the turnpike
Where best chicken was had
Set well off the road,
Shady and cool,
The diners looked out
On a lily bordered pool.
When summer nights were hot
And less stringent the law,
You thought nothing of trip
Down to the Lobster Claw.
When you arrived about sundown
without thought of ration,
And had you a shore dinner
Selecting your own cruStacean.
Those were the summers
You couldn't quite decide
Through which part of the country
You preferred to ride.
Up through the BerkShireS
Or down to the shore,
But Of course you'd cat out somewhere
That's what sur.mer evenings were. Tor
You we're ever and always
Hearing of some place new,
Where they specialized in duck dinners
Or maybe lobster stew
Gone are the days
When all eaters were kin,
And met over Tom ColllnseS
At We Ode Wayside Inn.

Martin, too.
Grandpa Martin said he was puz-

just wrote:

thus, as I would our own FIRST
Lady, both you and she being so
thoroughly human :"
