(Blyth Standard)
The following taken from a Blyth
Teepee of thirty-five years ago, will
give the young fellows of Blyth an'l
some idea of how kissing was done
in Blyth and vicinity at that time.
Whether the girls of thee generating
leave anything on those of thirty-
five years ago we are unable to say.
"rebably some of our young tronba-
dors around town could enlighte,i
our readers:
The Belgrave girl bows her stately
head
And fixes her pretty Iips
10 a. firm hard way Chen let's 'em
Go and sips, sips and sips,
The Walton girl with a bungry lrrlh
And tightened fastened eye
Snatches her kiss like one closing a
book
Thee right about turns and. flies.
The Auburn girl has a way of her
own
In a soulful clanging way
4he takes a kiss that's Just as big
As a wagon load oe hay,
,r.
The Londesiboro girl gets a grip on
her self
And carefully takes. off her hat.
Then grabs the man in a frenzied
way
Like a terrier shaking a rat.
The Westfield girl says never e
word
She's so gentle, timid and tame,
But she grabs the jay by the back of
the neck
And she gets there ,just the same,
But if you want a perfect kiss
That will set your head In a whirl
You reach the arils of earthly bliss
\alien yell hiss a Blyth girl.
