And finish up her note so neat
With simply, “yours sincerely,”
All wool!
But modern Janes have changed a bit.
They fib the whole note thru.
And then tack on the end of it
“There’s no one dear, but you.”
All bull! —The J-Tac.

“Oh, they can,” was the haughty
reply, “but in our position they don’t
have to.”—Toronto Telegram.

followed—the refreshments. These were
served in courses. The first course
