In The Social Realm?

THE HEAD OF THE FAMILY.
See the poor man with the lists
In his shaking hand.
Who is he? Why docs he so sigh?
And why so mournful stiml?"
That's poor Papa; small wonder he
No joyful spirit vaunts,
For what' he's reading from those lists
Is what his family wants.
He knows he's got to get the things
For gifts it Christmas tide,
And that is why he sighed.
For poor Papa looks at his purse
And thinks with humor grjm
la st-irtest truth, his family
Is very dear to him.
Sister wants a Paris gown.
Mamma, a diamond set;
Big Brother wants a motor car
Which speeds to win a bet.
The children want expensive toys.
The charities, a check;
No wonder that our poo,- Papa
Feels a financial wreck.
