AUNTS & UNCLES

Oa a Ty an pe bon sia. uty a) -etie (dan || ee se -This poem about Uncles and Aunts was written by Uncle Tom, of 1YA. There’s Tiger Lea at the Zoo, In his den he, prances, At 1YA there’s a Leo too, The Uncle of our fancies, All the Radio liltie Misses, Send him lots aud lois of kisses, What a wondrous luck that his is, Under the circumslances.
