THE R H Y M IN G SUM M ARIST
Swain, the contest man, has been telling us
About The Post auto race,
That the momentous hour has arrived
When all speed up and pace;
Pep and ginger are the cues
And the motto of the battle
That now is on
From morn to dawn
With great enthuse and rattle.
W e’ve been thinking that the girl who wins
And each has an equal show,
W ill pass a very pleasant summer
With her Max and beau;
O’er hill and vale they’ll glide along
When nights are bright and mooney,
It will be bliss
And not amiss
To get a little spooney.
Ira D. M ix and Glen C. Smith
May goo-goo at the lady,
And both forget for a time at least
That they are sparking Sadie;
So add smiles and “ hyp” to “ never-give-up”
Tho it makes you lank and thinner,
As that’s the way
To make it pay
And come in first—a winner.

Found Warming Pan Usaful
Senator Hiram Johnson said at a
dinner in New York:
“Through misgovernment civili
zation nearly came a cropper in the
world war Civilization will come a
cropper yet—unless we all work to
gether for government of the scien
tific, rational kind.
“It is sheer luck that the world
gets on, misgoverned as it is. Yes.
it is sheer luck of the Jonathan
Dewsbury kind.
“Jonathan Dewsbury, a New Eng
land merchant, astonished his friends
by sending a shipload of brass
wanning pans to Cuba, of all plates.
But Jonathan's friends were still
more astonished when they heard
that the warming pans had sold like
hot cakes to the Cuban sugar plant
ers at a stiff price. The planters,
you see, found them most convenient
for skimming the rats off their mo
lasses vats, where those sweet
toothed creatures had a nasty habit
of getting stuck while feeding.”
“ It takes a live fish to go up
stream; any dead one ' can go
down.”
