　　“Rain, no game.”

J. Jingles and rhymes
⑴ The man who misses all the fun
Is he who says “It can’t be done.”
In solemn pride he stands aloof,
And greets each venture with reproof.
Had he the power, he would efface
The civilizations of the human race.
We’d have no steam or trolley cars,
No streets lit by electric stars;
No telegraph or telephone,
We’d linger in the age of stone!
The world would sleep if things were run
By men who say “ It can be done!”
⑵ We drowse and doze under the trees
In a mazy haze on days like these,
Dizzied with sounds of sheep that browse,
And lazy sounds of grazing cows,
And buzz of busy bees, whose sound
Makes lazier laziness around.
K. A message of greeting
A birthday wish to my wife
From the Guy who seldom shows it
But who knows his wife is a whiz—
Who doesn’t often say she’s sweet
But always thinks she is!
Who may not always mention
That he just can’t live without her—
But hopes she knows that all the time
He is simply wild about her.
