.,_:, Nowa.
Making a Diamond trim and flat,
That's what the boys were working
at,
While jokes went round the merry
throng,
As to whom the Diamond would
belong.
The crunch of spade and the clang
of hoe,
Were music sweet to the ears of
"Joe”
"With a level stretch twixt me and
the plate,”
Said Joe, "I'll pitch at a fast -train
rate."
"Oh, ho," said `Bill', "and what of
nre?
I'll pitch them balls they'll never see.
I'll strike out two or three in a row,
That's the kind of balls I'll throw."
And catcher "Wilde" with faceaglow,
Said, "Now I'll make a perfect throw
To any of the bases three,
Without hazard or jeopardy,"
The infield and the outfield, too,
Were boasting just what they would
do,
They'd make no errors or misplays,
As they had done in by -gone days.
So, on our Diamond new, we dote
And when our season's games are
fought,
We'll hope predictions made by
players
Will mark them as truthful Booth -
sayers.
