"Chris'mas comes but wants a
year, an' they ain't anny time like it.
All th' rest iv th' year, fish days an'
feast days, holy days an' unholy days,
all th' wurld is in a clinch. A gran'
rasslin' match is goin' on in ivry cor
ner iv th' civylized wurruld. We're all
in a tansle, fi?htin.' quarrelin,' rob
bin", plundhrin', or murdhrin', accord-
in' to our tastes. I trust no man. No,
I won't that far. I'll say I prctlnd
Ivry man is honest, an' I believe none
iv them ar-re. In that way I keep
me frinO.s an' save mo money. Nobody
thrusts n.e. Down th' stairs ( through
th' kitchf n, an' into th' parlor we go,
all over th' house, st.hriking high or
low, no holds barred, no blows foul.
It's what Hogan calls th' sthruggle
f'r exh-'tence, an' it'll always go on
while there's a dollar in th' wurruld,
a woman, or a ribbon to wear in our
coats. We've f'gotten ivrything -l sf
but poundin' th' man under us, whin
suddenly we hear a voice: 'Gintlemen,
gintlemen, not befure the childer.'
An' we get up an' brush the dust off
our clothes, an' shake hands, pretind
in' it was all fun. Th' kids have come
in.
"That's what Chris'mas is for, liin
nissy. But f'r that wan twinty-four
hours, whin tin res a white flag up an'
th' worst inimy I have, or the worst
frind, cud come within ston's throw iv
me without fear, we'd die iv exhaustion."
