Excerpt: Myopia Now, don't try to yank every bun, Don't try to have all the fun, Don't think that you know it all, Don't think real estate won't fall, Don't try to bluff on an ace, Don't get stuck on a pretty face, Don't believe every jay's talk -- For if you do you can bet you 'll walk! William Devere. MYOPIA A S down the street he took his stroll, He cursed, for all he is a saint. He saw a sign atop a pole, As down the street he took his stroll, And climbed it up (near-sighted soul), So he could read -- and read "FRESH PAINT, " . . . As down the street he took his stroll, He cursed, for all he is a saint. Wallace Rice. The Famous Mulligan Ball THE FAMOUS MULLIGAN BALL T"ID ever you hear of the Mulligan ball -- the Mulligan ball so fine -- Where we formed in ranks, and danced on planks, and swung 'em along the line? Where the first Four Hundred of the town moved at the music's call? There was never a ball in the world at all like the famous Mulligan ball! Town was a bit of a village then, and never a house or shed From street to street and beat to beat was higher than Mulligan's head! And never a theater troupe came round to 'liven us, spring or fall, And so Mulligan's wife she says, says she, " Plase God, I'll give a ball!" From "Comes One with a Song." Copyright, 1903. Used by permission of the Bobbs- Merrill Company. The Famous Mulligan Ball And she did -- God rest her, and save her, too! (I'm liftin' to her my hat!) And never a ball at all, at all, was half as fine as that! Nev
