• Notes

  Give us your rapt attention Oh maidens fancy free, Here are the Leap Year Chances That will make your sorrows free. Carl Anderson has been patient Looking forward to the year, Now if some girls would ask him It would fill his heart with cheer. Fred Walker is another Still in the Bachelor's row, He'd accept you any minute Anyone would tell you so. Harry Miller, a real good farmer Has no time for girls at all, So it's plain your hours are wasted When on him you call. Then comes Bruce Graham As patient as can be, If the girls think he won't marry, Just ask him once and see. Jack Tye, a fine young man is he, He smiles and that with vim, But Girls don't waste your precious time A Milverton girl's got him. John Graham is still at large, And many a girl would sigh And the prospect would be bright, So it's really worth a try. Ed Anderson, happy as can be, For him a girl should try Just put your cake upon the shelf You'll get him by and by. Reg Puddicombes' grand big house Without a wife looks bare, But before some girl gets him, You'll have to use a snare. York and Arthur Nahrgang Two handsome lads they be, Now girls don't miss asking them Or these two will go free. Norman Kocher is still with us And he is going to stay, So if some girl proposes, I'm sure that it will pay. Clarence Graham and Joe Brenneman, Both young you must agree, If you think they would not want you, Just ask them once and see. So all you girls in Haysville, Who chance to this rhyme The "Bachelors" of the neighbourhood Await you to name the time. Now show them you can do it, The way is surely clear, Pick out "your man" and bear in mind It's a long time till next leap year. The Family Four by Elise Thoms
