DON’T GET GAY. As you face the giddy world, young friend, don’t ever try to hide Your sense of noble manliness and con. scientious pride; Hold up your head in fearless wav, look duty in the face. And in the field of enterprise strive hard to set the pace. Be independent in your acts, but never crow too loud, Put forward every honest trait with which you are endowed ; In carving out your course in life fear not to ha ve yours say, And say it independently, but don't get gay. If you by fortune have lieen blessed with talent more than those You meet in life’s unequal ranks, don't tread u|M>n their toes, And if at education's fount you've liber ally drank, Pray don’t imagine you’retheonly turtle in the tank. Conbine your manly dignity with mod esty anil grace— A watch is never valued by the glitter of its face— Remember, like your fellow men, you're but a house of clay To crnmbleinto dust again, so don't g«t gay- Though as a sparkling jewel in society you shine, Though flatterers may tell you you’re just awfully divine, Though pretty girls may flood you with their ever-ready smiles And strive to hold you captive in the net work of their w iles, Don't think you are a demi-god of semi human birth, Don't think von hold a mortgage over due upon the earth, Don’t tilt your nose too (loftily or some time they may say You’re more the peacock than the man, so don’t get gay- The world admires a manly man of in dependent thought, A man of nerve and enterterprise with vim and vigor fraught, A modest man content to be accepted at his worth, But not a self-important cuss who thinks he owns the earth. Don’t try to make the |»eoplc think you’re wit and sense to burn, That what you don't already know ’tis not worth while to learn; In setting in the game of life you’ll make a winning play If you but use good common sense, and don't get _________________ gay- THE CHRONIC KICKER.

Don’t ride in cabs, or trains, or cars, Don't walk upon the street, Don’t stay out gazing at the stars (Although the girl is sweet). Don’t kiss! Don’t smack! Don’t oscu late! With every chaste embrace You plant a deadly germ of fate Upon your loved one’s face. Don’t swallow stuff of certain brands, Don't take a “nip” or “smile,” Don’t go in bathing on the sands— Don’t go to Coney Isle. Don’t pile the blankets on the bed, But then, don’t take them off, Don’t say “A code is in by head,” Don’t cough, dear boy. don’t cough. Don’t go to l»ed ! Don’t go to work! Don’t go to playhouse show’! Don’t go to shop! Don’t go to kirk ! In fact, just don’t you go!
