When General Julius Caesar on the Roman Hills was tenting— When Diogenes set forth in search of Truth— The patriarchs bewhiskerca spent a heap of time lamenting: “Ob the flippancy of saereligious Youthl” Flaming Youth's cosmetic urge Ever will evoke a dirge From maturity in pious indignation. For, alias, ’twas ever thus: When there’s nothing else to cuss, Start a fuss about the Younger Gen eration. —Arthur L. Lippman.
