 24 SOMERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL RADIATOR The Rush at the 'L.” Of all the tortures man created, The worst of all’s the “Elevated.” YVe can see how small we are When once we enter the L” car. Man in uniform of state Cries. Step lively!” slams the grate, Pushes you into the rush, Almost grinds your hat to mush; Man in front yells, oh, so sweet! Confound you, get off my feet! Then vou elbow on inside. And grab a strap, so long denied. You no sooner get the strap, Down you Hop in a woman’s lap; Apologize in awkward way, Begin to tremble with dismay. Suddenly, with awful thump, Train stops short, women jump. 'Pis nothing, you are off once more. Again you stop: guards all roar, Out by end doors, and step quick. Side doors closed” (a nasty trick). John Bryant’s Sons UNDERTAKERS Telephone 123-2. 353 Medford St. Scramble then begins anew, Some get out, but just a few. Women sob, men all scowl, Guards let out another howl. On you rush, ye gods be blessed, End at last, at last a rest. —L. T. C. Well! and She Let Him. Mr. Rush.— Say! I want you to marry me! Miss Pechis (gasping).— Well! I’ve had some nervy proposals, but you take the palm! Mr. Rush.— Good! Mow let me hold that palm a minute while I slip this ring on the proper finger!’’—Philadelphia Press. PHOTO SUPPLIES.
