HAPPY WAIHI

The principal amusement are the free picture shows for miners and their wives and'families, which are greatly enjoyed. . . . Money is coming in freely.—News item. There’s a lot of botheration just because the federation Solved the problem of wage slavery, in the township of Waihi : Socialism there is booming, and the days of freedom looming, For the toiler toils no longer and the picture shows are free. Although cupboards may be empty there is perfect rest In plenty. There are “spruikers” on the corners and processions you may see. Should you hear some man repining, just remind him that the lining Of the darkest cloud is silver, and his picture shows are free.

Who dares preach of evolution, they’ve achieved the revolution;/’ y It’s a town of perfect leisure is the place they call Waihi, Where the crimson tic shines brightly when the miners gather nightly To enjoy the “Pathe” “Vitas’’ where the picture shows are free .

There., are plenty of mass meetings, every day they pass the greetings. And it’s quite a cheerful thing to read that “money comes in free,” That the owners’ knees are bowing, and that Socialism’s growing, And the mighty federation makes a picture which is free. R. Hall.
