IS iter, re. ‘Laugh and the World Laughs with You ”’ There are laughs galore in every page of Maurice Switzer’s Satire and Song Asa fun maker and all-round gloom dispcller this work is simply irresistible. If a good laugh is better than a dose of physic, then SATIRE & SONG will actually save scores of doctor's bills. The Author is a New York business man with a keen but kindly outlook on life, and a rare sense of humor. He puts his observations of life over the plate the sort of verse that burns holes in the memory. “She Wasn't Over Twenty, But She Knew Her Little Book” pictures a type of ‘the female of the species that will be instantly recognized. With all the fun there is a vein of deep philosoph such ballads as “Life's Poker Game,” “Hymn ‘he ‘and Outs,”* “ Opportunity,” " Suspicion,” "The Coat of Content. And there's The Broadway Mother Goose" and those delightful travesties, “The Ruby Yap of Homer K. x ‘The Song of the Skirt and “The Purple faven. What O. Henry did for some American types in Prete Mourice Switzer has done in verve, and no convincingly. Kipling himself never did anything better than Little “Jane Horner “Had the lady been wood, she might have stayed good In the gloom of her beanery cell: But being just flesh, she ght in the mesh Of desire’s drag-net which is hell.” If you want to shine as an entertainer among your friends, SATIRE & SONG is better than a night at the Follies. It scores a hit every time a lilt and swing in Maurice Switze make you remember the words.
