SNOWBALLING. The whole town turned out yesterday and pitched Into the snow; The parson led the rumpus an' he shouted "Let 'er go!" An' every man he rolled him up a ball an' started In You orter been there, fellers, Just to see the fun begin! First, Deacon Jones who don't believe a man could fall from grace Jos' hit the person in the back and snowed him in the face; An the parson dropped his snowball his eye was red as blood, And when he clinched with Deacon Jones the deacon's name was mud. Then Deacon Jones's wife came out an' hit the parson one. An' in a second an' a half she had him on the run; Then all went In for fightin' they fought from fur an' rear! The mayor Jumped on the marshal an' the marshal licked the mayor! We don't want no more snowballs in Blissville right away, For half the town's laid up now, with doctors' bills to pay; The undertaker's smllin' as he hugs his bit-off ears; We've had snow enough In Blissville to last a hundred years. 80CIETY EVENT.
