BRICK-BATS
Young Billy Brown, fell plumb in
love with Margy Alice Moore, and
when he called her Turtle Dove, it
didn’t make her sore. Now Billy |
wasn’t rich, by far, he only had a job,
and drove a wheezy flivver car, a beg
gar wouldn’t rob. Sweet Margy’s
dad, a mean old bore, said, “That
young crazy loon, will have to find;
another door at which to loaf and
spoon. He also told his daughter
dear that if she dated Bill, he’d take
her by her shell pink ear and spank
her with a will. He told young Billy
on the street, that if he passed the
yard, he’d have a gatling gun to meet,
that shot both straight and hard.
That night a ladder bumped a wall,
through darkness two forms groped.
A flivver wheezed and that was all,
the youngsters had eloped. The old
man reared around on high, and then
began to sing, “Most thirty seven
years gone bye, I did the same darned
thting.” We find one fact, that’s very
true, in station low or high, you can
not stop the will to do, no matter how
ymu try.—Brick Smith.
