Current Events In Rhyme EDITORS NOTE! Under the heading Current some phase of literature, world affairs, music serious vein. We hope you like it. 1 World Affairs In the League of Nations Ethiopia put her trust, But this step proved to be a bust, For to Italy all the diplomats said was My, My, My, such crust! Consequently, they say, The League is doomed, After all, we shouldn't have assumed That anything could stop the cannons' boom. The pessimists believe it's a matter of days Before the world is again filled with the haze Of cannon smoke and dying men's groans. However, we of this generation believe That the enlightened public will this danger relieve. For, after studying the situation from every angle, They've found the price for letting nations wrangle Is paid in a figure written in blood, Is paid at the cost of all that we love- Liberty, happiness, fellow-men, life, They'll win in this land over international strife. Music Music has lived down through the ages, And has gone through various stages. Chants and victories have been sung, Folk songs - love songs to someone. Grand Opera enraptures some a lot, While to others it is just a flop. Romance has blossomed 'neath the stars To the strains of Two Guitars. And the Lone Prairie by Hill-Billies, Pleases some and gives others the Willies . So the music goes round and round In every home, in every town. Some like it hot, some like it slow, And now Swing is all the go. So sweet music, hot music, here's to you, Your harmonies ring the whole world through. Events in Rhyme, we have attempted to develop and drama in poetry, either in a humorous or a Drama On gay Broadway this season, People of any tastes could find a reason To spend at least a week to see Those shows of the hit variety. There were VVinterset, and Dead End, But that's only naming a few, And, earlier in the season, There was the Taming of the Shrew. When this Shakespearean play shut down, Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontaine began to frown Over the script of Idiot's Delight, Which was based on the slogan, Might Doesn't Make Right! Then there came that eventful day When they announced the Pulitzer Play. It was Robert Sherman's A'Idiot's Delight, And the war against war reached a new height. ' Literature Through the wide world we can roam, Even though we stay at home. Adventure, romance, heroes, crooks, All of these are told in books. VVe can almost feel the rain When we read Hurricane Seven League Boots takes us far away, And into other lands we stray. Honey In the Horn, the Pulitzer prize, Passes now before our eyes. And then, if we wish to stay right here, Johnny Q. Public Speaks in our ear. Thus the world and its allure Comes to us in literature.
