We herewith extend a most kind invitation

To you and your friends or any relation

To come to a party. This little silk sack

Is intended to furnish a good place to pack

As many pennies as you are years old.

We promise the secret shall never be told.

If Methuselah's age would be the right sum

Of the years to which you already have come,

If objections to exposing your age should arise,

One hundred would be a splendid disguise.

A musical program of very rare merit

Will be given to those who will just come and hear it.

We'll give you good cheer for the weak inner man

And a gallery of pictures unique to well scan;

We'll meet young and old with greetings most hearty

As you come, one and all, to your own Birthday Party.
