More Truth Than Poetry
' By JAMES J. MONTAGUE '
t
WHAT IS GRAMMAR?
Educators are bandinir together against a liberal movement to eut down the
teaching of grammar in the rublic schools.
These here professors' clamor
For schooling is a fright,
Nobody learned me srrammer
But I can write all right. 0
I ain't took time to study,
And whom shall say I should,
When almost anybody
Can understand me good?
Them principal and madams
The high school teaching glooms
Is scared that F. P. Adams
Will ketch 'em on their whoms.
But Shakespeare pulled a bum one
In almost every play,
And Bill at least was some one,
But whom is F P A?
, This poet Burns'es hobby
Was sayin, "I ha' knew,"
But just the samey Bobbie
Wrote Scotch an' drunk it too.
And to some ways of thinking
He done 'em both the same ;
His writing and his drinking
Has gave him lots of game.
I aint up much on grammar,
I can't write stuff to quote,
And these here critics hammer
The things that I have wrote.
But even them that's panned me,
And claim that I am thick,
Can always understand me,
So they ain't got no kick!
I'M THE GUY
I'M THE GUY who hogs a scat in
the crowded smoker but doesn't want
to smoke.
It doesn't matter to me that I'm
keeping some chap who does want
to smoke out of a seat. If he doesn't
want to stand up and smoke let him
go back and sit down in one of the
other cars where there is a scat.
I know there are seats there for
I have my luggage in one. I don't

I Bergdoll says he didn t want to kill his relatives in the war. If his

need two seats and don't need to be
in the smoker at all, but I just want
to and that's enough.
It's the same when I'm riding in
a chair car. The smoking compart
ment only seats five or six, but I'm
entitled to sit in one of them if 1
want to, so I do. That leaves four
or five other seats for those who
want to smoke and if that isn't
enough let the company build cars
with longer compartments.
So if you're looking for a com
fortable smoke and find me parking
in a full car or compartment don't
bother to. glare at me. It won't do
