RATION SONG
(Dedicated to Mr J. E. Thomas, Ration Controller, by the Auckland: Drapers" and Allied Traders' ! Association) A coupon for a muffler, That's what it's s-posed to be, Of course a corset's three, Thin'k they're coupon free 1 . A corselette needs four coupons. Of coures a corset's three. Then why, I aslc, for two you get A shirt, or dungaree? A "binder'* needs a quarter. (We thought that food was free. Especially as for "cheese cloth" There need no coupon be). "Ecclesiastical vestments" They also are buckshee, But must you also throw in tooFriend "Scrim"' of IZR. Soon coupons will be finished, Ancl' we will have to see . • Just how we can attire ourselves • With "coupon free." • ; Our suits will be of "Arras" tweed, Our shirts of "tapestry,'" - And for the rest we'll manage with some haberdashery. (From the Matamata County Mail).^ V ' . ', t ;r,
