Autos and Homes

I never see <rn cruto go c-honking down the road, But I wonder if the driver is th; owner of c home,. And if he hcs c dorrocile he surely must hcrve tost the thrill __ Or else he reclly wouldn't feel tlct strong desire to rocrur, You never see him slowing; lcster, Icster he is going And sometimes comea bcck c-towing with criori cs motive power, But crs aoon cs she iE fixed he gives her gc'" crnd goes like sixty, And he holds ecch stcrtioncry moment cs cr wcsled hour. He will never know the plecrsuie in the full and flowing meqsure Of cnr eventide of leisure with the children curd the ftIe, Fol.S dcys cr_e spent_in speeding, never thinking, never heeding,

_

OI the many lovely things thct lill c qucrint cnd 6rdered life.

Fc1_ t-oo galy people reckon thcrt c tiny spot or speck on Either body, hood, or lining of their cherished mlto, ccrr, Is Tost leqr_some, grim,_crnd trcrgic, Oh, thct we could.find some mcaic

_ Tlot would _keep such things from stcrting up the usucrr lcrmily icrrl lo the mcn who hcs crn cuto,it's most crlwcrys one he,s bought to Hcnd the dust to certcin people whom he don,t like cnryicry, And whenever he mcy meet them he will never stop to gieet ihem

But he hits it up cnd pcsses them no mcrtter whci they- scy.

He mcry tcrke the wile cnd kiddies lor c ride, but iI he iia 6et Sure to be the only one to put cr finger on the wheel.

He_will let nobody tr1''em, he's the grect cnd only "I cun,, Super-egotism fills him like cr setrenteen course-mecl. Now I don't condemn the cction oI the mcn who crcnyes the trcrction OI the lqtest non-skid model on the rocrds and thorofcres, te_t_$p buy his cuto lrcAon, let him go crnd get cr icrg on _ With the lrenzy of the speeding, il hL hcs nJ othei &res. But I merely wcni to mention, with the lriendliest intention, That the wcy the situcrtion sizes up most clecrr to me, Is,tefore he gets cn cuto, he should own c home he bought to Give convenience, shelter, comfort, to his personcl fcmily-tree.
