0 7.3 'if We boarded an F street car, To us a contrivance rareg Both the motorman's face was familiar, And the man's who collected our fareg We pondered for a moment only, And then we suddenly knew That this was Allan Watson And Francis Duffy, too. The ball-game next day was of interest, And tho' it may seem queer- The man who did the twirling Was none other than Ernest Sevier. A cheer then rose from the grand-stand, I could not see where I sat, But Zelma kindly told me That Harold was now at the bat. Lulu was sitting beside us, Mrs.-, I've forgotten the name, But clearly I can remember He was some miner of fame. Then I did question Lulu About a gent who was sitting near, She said it was Irving Fulton, A great civil engineer. By his side sat Elvina Ottmer, Looking just exactly the same, And we have heard it whispered She soon will change her name. And we heard that Frances Kellett Was a seamstress of great renown, And for some time has been working On Karen's wedding gown. We wondered who was the fellow Who'd won this girl so grand, But we were told to keep it a secret, That he hailed from a far-off land. VVe passed a shop where Layton Was written o'er the door, And thought at once of Dexter, Whom we had known of yoreg XVe then went in to inquire, But he gave us the same old speel That even tho' we lived in China, We must buy an aut'mobile. 17
