EAT BROWN BREAD

Lo Young Listeners, PEOPLE say In an aggravating way All little boys and girls Should EAT BROWN BREAD. This puts us in a rage Whatever is our age And we say we won’t eat any brown We'll just eat white instead, % a * But a little boy of seven, Who'll surely go to heaven Seems to know the way of telling Us to EAT BROWN BREAD. He doesn’t rub it in That eating white’s a sin It’s the funny way he says it, Makes us EAT BROWN BREAD. * a * "Bangity bang, bang EAT BROWN BREAD. Ever seen a sausage fall down dead Out came a saveloy ; And hit him on the head Bangity bang bang, EAT BROWN BREAD." (By a Boy of Seven.) Misfitting Names B vere MISFIT, the tailor, BA.D. Lamb the butcher, E. Waters, the milkman, C. Shortweight, the Grocer, and V. R. Crusty, the baker, all had stalls at the Town Hall lately, But don’t judge them by their names. They are all good people who were working at the City Mission fair, trying to make enough money to pay for the Fielden Taylor Boys’ Memorial Hostel. The Fair was @ success, but they still want more money and they are always very grateful for MORE JAM, MORE VEGETABLES AND MORE CLOTHES. Bryan O’Brien and his T.O.T. artists were helping too, so now having seen them, we know that the artists really are children and not clever people pretending they are,
