MOR-~ TERUD FISH COMPANY DU UTB' MINN : 'Menfion the Lender When Writing Advertiuets‘ BLESSINGS ON THEE, GRADUATE . _ - Blessings on thee, Graduate, High Schoul boy with speeqh ornate; with thy tie with flaring end, and thy form that will not bend; with thy nerves in mystic dance, and thy stiff im- mobile pants; with thy hot encased throat and thy firm and rigid coat; with thy much beflowered lapel, decked with daisies from the dell; with thy painful shining shoes, and thy socks of wanton hues; with they knees which trembling beat, with thy surplus hands and feet; .with thy sheep-skin .due tomght with thy brave forensic fllght—from thy vantage on the stage thunder out thy righteous rage! Fire it at us fast and warm, while yet you dare to talk reform; give no quarter, give no truce—heap upon us just abuse; tell us of our feeble laws, and we’ll answer with ap- plause; tell us how we love the source of crime, murder and _divorce, while we hate the weaker child that our cowardice has beguiled; tell us that our Uncle Sam is a firm but nghte_ous man, and that the son who steals his cash gets both forgive- ness and the lash; tell us why brave Warren fell, tell us of war’s tragic hell! Speak tonight in burning way; . tomorrow differs from to- day; when you step from off the stage, you must earn a living wage; diplomatic chase for gold makes the burning heart grow cold; tomorrow you may bow to men; you may never speak again; tomorrow you are fortune’s toy, so SPEAK, OH SPEAK TONIGHT MY BOY! You have now my lost estate—I WAS ONCE A GRAD- UATE! HIS WEDDING PANTS When Mendelssohn was “swelling” for the stately wedding march, ~ And the lighter notes were rising at the dance, He was stately, proud and sweaty in his linen and his starch, And resplendent in his twenty—dollar pants. When the twins were duly christened on a lovely Easter morn He wore a grin of wonderful ex- panse; i He was proud as any papa of his couple eldest born, But prouder of his twenty-dollar. pants! When Jimmie graduated in the deco- rated hall, His eloguence held “patrons in-a trance; His father sat and gloried in the tri- " umph of it all, . But his mind was on hlS twenty- dollar pants! Poor Mendelssohn was “swelling” for another wedding march, With Susie in a happy trance; Her daddy gave her proudly. ’neath a lovely wedding arch, And again he wore his twenty-dol— lar pants! “golden A grandpa, old - and ‘honored, he ap-vv proached a peaceful end— The light was slowly fading from , *4eF his glance; “I will rest a'little better,” low he whispered to a frlend, “If you shroud me in my twenty- dollar pants!”? ~ * ¥ * We are in favor of hlterning the butcher who in timing himself while: scraping a hog, carelessly: put the watch on the nnd! e 7 * > e Speakmg about clever needlework,' how about the man who sowed wheat, and oats together? If the baseball players all have to quit and :go at other more necessary employments, many an old fan will go out and sit on the bleachers every few days, anyway, just from force of habit, so the loss of time will go on indefi- nitely with the fans. It is likely, how- ever, that the boys themselves will know how to “make a hit” at any new job. * * _ 0k It is said that nearsighted men are most apt of all to become inebriates, for the temptation Is ‘greater,*with glasses ‘constantly “before their eyes.: *x° * * POTATO WEEK After years of ‘obscurity, merits un- " knownq,; - The old Irish potato has come’ to its- own; Full long 1t fed Janue, and Jerry,. -and Mat, And Bndget ‘and Katle, and’Mlchael and Pat— And failing. one crop m the ’40s,.’tis ) said, Left' jolly old Ireland x@st scantily fed: But now it’s hurrah for the Murphy, I say, The Irish potato is havmg its-day; And those who considered old Ireland a freak, Grew fat on her praltles on potato i week. - S ¥ % I * If the report ‘sent in was correct, when Cain made a base hit Abel went It is said that the “manna” on which the wandering Children of Israel:fed | got its. name from an old Hebrew word which means, “What it is.” When first . they saw the white stuff on the . ground they all stood around and - cried, “Manna, manna, manna” % That is “just a report, however, and don’t think us skeptical when we venture to- “say that the report may be incorrect;- ~for there. nught have been at least one Swede girl in. the bunch lookmg for a husband. 5 ADVERTISEMENTS WANT CREAMY WOOL BEANS Live Poultry, Squab, Veal, Salted Cattle Hides, Horse dees, Pelts, Skins, Tallow, Furs, Prices are hl.gh and market booming.
