In a tomb far, far away, There lies a record writ in clay, And until just recently, No light of day -his tomb did see. This 1'ecord cut in bas-relief, Is too long to be told in fully . I set down here an outline brief, To let you know of my belief. Olk King Tut, Was a, Radio Nut, A Radio Nut was heg He called for his set, And he yelled, By Heck! As he looked at his programm-ee. Old King Tut Put his phones on his nut, And tuned till he got V. T. He callde for his Wife, He called for his child, To listen to a good stor-ee. Old King Tut Is as dead as ia nail, As dead as a nail is he. But though he is dead, With no phones on his head, Phones on our heads have we. Now you can see from this brief tale, That the Radio's not so newg And if this story 's not believed, I'll try and prove it's true. For, go to that fair n1onarch's tomb, And read upon the Wall p The story of those past great men Who worked with areals tall. -Harold Corniield, I. C. I bathed in the Hot Springs, last sum- mer.
