Those high step cars are a disgrace: they are en tirely out of place; the distance truly should be half, then Mary wouldn't show her animosity. When Mary starts to dance a bit men folks nearly have a fit; if more clothes her form did drape, Mary wouldn't show her disposition. Mary steps across tlio guttcr--oh, i the mean things men do utter; Mary's anger 'gins to rankle why should they talk about her elbow T When Mary wears that short slit skirt the men all try with her to flirt, and wonder if that naughty breeze doesn't chill her to the shoulder.
