There was a young man from Art Creek, Who went around dressed in batik, When they asked, “Are you well?” He replied, “Ain’t it hell? But in Art it’s the very last shriek.” * * * Another young chicken named Mary Was in love with a youngster named Larry, And when it was dark They went to the park, And there they did tarry and tarry. * * * There was a young feller named Aster Who went in a wild bullock’s pasture; The sweater he wore Made the poor bully sore, And so he ran faster and faster. * * * A sculptor made nymphs and bacchantes, Omitting the coaties and panties, Till a kind-hearted Madam, Who knew where they had ’em. Donated some warm Ypsilantis. * * * The Impulsive CussA maiden not lacking in pride Went out with her beau for a ride. She said, “Tell me, Joe, How far do you go?” “The sky is my limit!” he cried. * * * There was an old sculptor named Phidias, Whose knowledge of art was invidious. He carved Aphrodite Without any nightie, Which shocked all the people fastidious. * * * There was a young lady named Florence, Who for kissing professed great abhorrence. At last she was kissed, And said: “My! What I’ve missed!” And cried till the tears fell in torrents. * * * This story may be overdrawn, But now that my ink is all gone, I’ll say goodby, guys, And cease with my lies; ’Tis yours very truly,—Bull Kahn. * * * Even the repeal of the Eighteenth amendment wouldn’t do the brewers any good. Everybody knows how to make his own, now. * * * I Like ’em, God Bless ’emThese widowers are an elusive lot, I like ’em! They make you forego the sense you’ve got, I like ’em! They call you young, they think you’re green, For blasÉ women they’re beaucoup keen, They’re the worst darn pests I’ve ever seen, I like ’em. —By Flo. * * * The best man that ever lived Must take his child on faith alone, But the worst woman that ever lived Knows that her child’s her own. * * * That Osculating ThingA little kissing now and then Is why we have the married men. A little kissing, too, of course, Is why we have the quick divorce. * * * The Alphabet of LoveA is the art of man and maid; B is the blush, so fair, displayed; C is the challenge in the eyes; D the dare that soon replies; E but why the rest recall? The rest is E-Z, that’s all. * * * A buzz ran ’round the party, Some maids were e’en in tears; A blasÉ girl—ye Gods, the shame— Had left exposed her ears. * * * The melancholy days have come, The saddest of the year. There’s no coal in the cellar, And no goodness in the beer. * * * If I had a girl and she was mine, I’d paint her back with iodine; And on her ankles I’d place this sign, “Keep off the lunch, they’re mine, they’re mine.” * * * SincerityLet me live in a house By the side of the road Where the races of men go by; The men who are good And the men who are bad, Just as good and as bad as I. I would not sit on the scorner’s seat Or hurl the Cynic’s ban; But let me live in a house By the side of the road And be a friend to man. * * * BATHING BEAUTIES!
