THE TRIO.
j know three young boys in our
little town,
Who :v"-' doing so much of this flirt- |
ing around,
I fear they have already joined, j
the flappers gang,
the first thing I know, they'll!
go K bang!
These three young men are pals;
from their hearts,
\nd you'll be wise, if you get them
apart.
They love girls in Forest City,
Shelby, and all round,
gar where they fall out, they'll comei
back to town.
These young men's names, I am i
afraid to relate, I
p u t when they call up the girls can't
wait,
They are tall and handsome, and
Oh! so neat,
That the girls come falling, right at
their feet.
One is a blonde, the other two
are brunetts,
They call their girls, dear, love and.
their pets,
But when they linger, and are a
little late.
The girls wonder, if they are filling
another date.
Three shieks from their hearts I
don't mean maybe,
If the girls will let them, they'll run
them crazy,
My advice to give, is to leave them
alone,
And they'll not be left, a broken
heart to moan.
SNOOKS, Spindale.

Which you had no time no thought

THE FOREST CITY COURIER, T HURSDAY, OCTOBER .3, 1929.
TO WAYSIDE BROWN.
Mr. Wayside Brown, in his easy roll
ing chair,
He rolls all around, as if he didn't
care.
For he's happy each day, as happy
as can be,
Because of the wearing, of the little
goat-tee.
Now if Jim, and Eddie, and all the
rest,
Want to wear one, and look their
very best,
They can not out shine, Mr. Way-,
side Brown,
For he's quite the nicest, -looking,
man in town.
He knows how to win the ladies so
fair, j
Because of the silver streaks in his
hair, ,
He is graceful, and neat, and oh! so
nice.
That the young ladies come around
loving him twice.
There's Smiley, the Skeeter and!
Dam-fi-no,
How many others to Charlotte would ■
want to go,
To see Mr. Brown, and make love
to him
Because of the whiskers, he wears on '
his chin.
Why, Ifear, Susie, Hot Dog, Tim and j
others,
Would want to bunch up, and go .
along together,
An.d then my advice, would be to Mr. \
Brown
To get away fast, as he could leave j
town.
For this bunch of girls go crazy as j
a Loon, ]
If they are only looking, at the man j
in the moon,
And he don't even wear, a little
goat-tee,
But they just stand, and look and
laugh, Tee-he.

IT'S BILL PAYING TIME.
Forest City merchants have been
sending out a good many bills this
week and most of them report that
collections are picking up. It would
be better for all concerned if all i
would pay their bills when due; it j
would keep more money in circula-j
tion and at the same time give the 1
merchant a chance to be better pre-1
pared to discount his own bills. j
We hope there are not many like j
the one who wrote a Forest City j
merchant as follows:
"I got your letter about what I
owe you. Now be pachunt. I ain't for
got you. Pleez wait. When some folks
pay me I pay you. If this was Judg- 1
I ment Day and you was no more pre- j
j pared to meet your Maker than I j
j am to pay you, you sure would have J
j to go to hell. Trusting you will do j
\ this, I am. Yours truly " j
