TrHIT US
By Jim Manee.
After kidding, along for a spell
And switching around every day,
The weather man finally has steered
Some real winter weather this way.
Spring weather we've had up to now,
But a real change has hit us at last.
You know what I mean:. Say, turn up
the steam;
B-r-r! This surely is some winter
blast.
P. S. Everybody can get V skate
on now without being "out of order."
