John Smith twill assert that he has) no desire | To sce a new show—that heard it's no good; It may be the truth, unless Smith ty a fibber, H Which puts a new face on it; that’s understood, But give him a pass and he'll rush down and see it, Ignoring expenses for taxis and) euch; } The pass brings the change, if he's| managed to tree it, He'll go and he'll swell up with pride pretty much. he's Oh, what is the power the pass exer- cises? Can any one tell me? one know? It's snapped up by folks of all ages and sizes | Who don't care a rap what may be| in the show. And now that I’ve told you about it, I'm going To cat some pork chops with a “side” of baked beans; I may have some pie too; there's! really no knowing j Until I check up the small change in my jeans, Does any i} GOSSIP.
