Josiah Swamproot used to own This fertile homestead all alone, And was quite happy till he heard A blue-jay and a mocking-bird In conversation that appeared To be quite logical but weird, "I wonder if 'twas writ 'twould fetch A pretty sum, this blue-jay sketch?" Quoth he, and straight his plough he wheeled lie's in the literary field. Fair Bridget Flatiron used to be A worker in a launderee, Contented as she splashed the suds And soused the melancholy duds; "What stories might these old clothes tell If they might speak!" And Bridget fell To thinking on it till she took Her pen and ink and wrote a book. The laundry's solemn doom is sealed She's in the literary field. Ben Ringbolt was a fireman, cheer, Right bower to an Engineer, Who greased the joints and oiled the rods And asked for fate no saving odds, One day he heard a casting squeak And thought the engine tried to speak. "I'll write it down," quote simple Ben. Straightway he goi his ink and pen And wrote the The Engine's Tale Revealed He's in the literary field. And Ebenezer Fulkremecheese, Who used to sell the groceries, One dull and rainy afternoon Wrote the Life Story of a Prune. It was so novel a conceit 'Twas straightway bought by Buncombe Beat, Who Issued it a book de luxe For boarders, invalids and cooks, And since this winning tale he reeled He's in the literary field. So I might write for hours and tell How fell the literary spell On Lode M. Upp, the coal man's son, Who wrote short stories of a Ton, And Freeze N. Melt, who in a trice Wrote Disappearance of the ice, From observations that he made At ninety three degrees in shade While in his ice wagon round he wheeled He's in the literary field. Alas! Alas! No farmer now Brings me rich milk from pump or cow. My laundry all neglected pines Since Bridget wrote her Old Clothes Lines; The ice man's daily pilgrimage Is only done on printed page ; The coal man offers me his book When hungrily for coal I look, And with my pen to humor steeled I'm in the literary field. New York Times, TIN WHISTLES QUESTS the cups for HE SEVENTH event in the Tin Whistles' tour nament program, a n eighteen hole, medal play, invitation handi cap, for women, with best net and best gross scores, proved one of the most popular contests of the season, drawing a field of fifteen contestants, nearly all of whom handed in cards. Mrs. I. C. B. Dana, of Stamford, Ct., whose handicap was 25, carried off the net score trophy with a net score of 88, with Mrs. Herbert L.
