They wear pointed toes, And fancy half-hose Which matches their dress in tone, Their manner is sleek Like an Eastern sheik Who rules and governs alone: They think they look swell And handsome as well With muscular 'figure fine, They really are vain, These modern men, Have they neither cent nor dime. —Catherine Currie. 0 Walsh was enjoyed.
