Irene Costa Irene will surely like this auto, That she and Georgie now may ride, No longer on the public trolley But in their own car, side by side. Evelyn Duclos We know you get a letter, From a boy friend every day. Within this little chest, then, You can store them all away. Paul Ferrarini We hope you’ll find this useful, Paul, To carry on a rainy night; So please accept this parachute, And trust that it is water-tight.

Lawrence Houlahan A Greek god will find it necessary To write to all our vamps; So we’ll provide the stationery, But he must buy the stamps. Preston Leonard To our little blue-eyed baby We give this rattle bright. Now we hope that he’ll enjoy it, And play from morn till night.
