Show is just commencing and we've got to ring the ballet up, Hear our swell orchestra, keeping all the fun alive, Tooting on his whistle while they dance the Dug-out Dive, Come and see Spud Murphy with his double-ration smile ('Tisn't much for beauty, but it's Phyllis Dare for style); Come and tee our scena, "How the section got C.8."; Bring a'concertina, And we'll let you come in free. Roll up, rally up! Stroll up, sally up! ' , First and last performance. If you want to see it, allezWip! Come and sit where "Archibald!" won't get you in the neck (If it's getting sultry you can take a pass-out check).

Dhooly-wallahs too; In their "Mud and Slush" revoo. —Punch.;
