nre all drawn out too long; we
sturt with resolution:! strong to
be serene and cal n: : w e w c n ' t
indulge in roar and shriik. but
every blessed word we gp;ik
will be a healing bairn. And
for a while we do maintain
attitude that s safe and sane, we
argue withou; heat; with fine
politeness, graco and tact we
point out many a vocal fact ami
f i g u res goo u us w h ' a t . The
neighbors, too, with whom we
talk,- at wild and angry state
men tn balk, though they may
disagree; and everyone is so po
lite, denouncing wrong, defend
ing right, it is a sight to see.
Hut wearily the campaign drags,
and pretty Boon our patience
sags, our tempers are at fault:
we've used our arguments so
much the beat among them
needs a crutch, they are so lame
and halt. We've talked around
in rings and rings, thousand
times the same old things we
dismally have sprung; we've
talked so long our jaws are tired.
In cheap statistics we are mired,
we've spavis on each Hint-'. Th"
neighbors whom we daily bore
with arguments are growing
sore, they meet u- with a frown:
and old time friends line up as
foes, and someone soon resorts
to blows, and knocks a neighbor
down. It's pleasant when it end.-;,
gndzooks, and we can talk a-ain
of books, of pepful motor cars,
of works of art and writing Inks,
of song rnd love and kid: less
drinks, and fifteen -cent ck-nrw.
