THE VILLAGE GAKAGE (and Badio Corner). Under a spreading chestnut tree, The village smithy stood Where now stands “G. & B.'s” Garage Of concrete, bricks and wood. The smiths no longer swing their sledge For mightier men than they Have found the way to use their heads And work the Badio way. On Sundays they would go to church, Now, listen-in all day, And motor cars and Badio fans Pass in and out that way. Sons and daughters now watch them At the kerbside pump, While the cars line up in turn, Each fills his tank and sump. Week in, week out, from morn till night, You can see their red light glare; It’s seldom that a score of ears Are not in waiting there. And children going home from school Look in at the garage door, And long to sit in the Badio Lounge'— Each time they wish it more! Thanks, thanks to them, my worthy friends, For the lesson they have taught— The man who cannot look ahead, Well, his business goes to naught. But they who boldly act their part And learn to change their state, By watching GYDE & BABBINGEB Will soon be up-to-date. Q.YDE & gABBINGEB, LICENSED BADIO DEALEBS, HAWEEA.
