NEWS —= OF INTEREST IN THE SOCIAL REALM THE BRIDEGROOM’S SONG I’m sick of the song of the bride and her bloom; Just hearken to me for awhile —I’m the groom. I know I have no right in the cast, but alas— That’s|right —all I get in the case is a lass. I know I’m supposed to be silent and meek, But, dash it! I’m bound to get reckless and speak. They’re buzzing about what the bride is to wear; They’re buzzing about how she’ll do up hair; They’re quarreling over the bridal bouquet, I listen in silence to all that they say. They treat me as though I was chain ed to my doom— Alas! What am I? lam only the groom. Just say, “He was dressed in conven tional black,” Then kindly forget me and hasten right back To rave over the bride ’till you’re black in the face— I’m only the groom and I’m learning place. —Exchange.
