Plea for the Hello Girt.
When the girlie at. Central says
"Busy," don't work yourself into a
fret and a sweat; don't tell her in
language all freckled with fire that you
think she's quite near approach to a liar.
Don't paw at the carpet nor chew at
the rag; don't roar as a bull when it
sees a red flag, nor tell her in voicing
that paints the air red that you'll have
her tinoanned ere the sun goes to bed;
but murmur is sugary, marshmallow
words—'twill fall on her ear as the carol
of birds—to please ring you up when
the line is at rest, and she raises the
party of whom you're in quest, And
when she replies she will do so, just
hang the receiver up gently and not
with a bang. You scolding old fellow,
if you had to bear but half of the Hello
Girl's burden of care, that temper of
your's would explode with a boom, and
soatter oath fragments all over the room.
They often are Dossed at and growled
at by man, when trying to do the best
that they can to keep Service moving
with nary a hitch, when soreheads be-
lieve them asleep at the switch.; and
sometimes the harsh words that fall on
their ears fill their throats full of lumps
and their eyes full of teats. Just do un-
to them as you'd have others do unto a
sister of yours were she one of the Drew;
and you'll find your service far better
will be than if by your crossness you
rattle them, see?
At a meeting of the Toronto Veteran
Assooiation of 1866, it was decided to
renew the application to the Dominion
Government for land or money grants
for services rendered during the Fenian
raid.
It is probable the date of holding
mnnioipal elections will be changed
