A TOAST BOOK

Here's to auld acquaintance,
And mem'ries fond and dear;
Pleasant times in by-gone days,
Good health, good luck, good cheer.


A TOAST BOOK

Here's to Solomon and David,

Who led such merry lives,
With many, many lady friends,

And many, many wives.
But when old age crept over them

With many, many qualms,
King Solomon wrote the Proverbs

And King David wrote the Psalms.

A TOAST BOOK

A toast to the girls who are pretty,

Another to those who are plain;
)A toast to the girls who are witty,

A toast to those who are vain.
We toast them because they are
charming,
We toast them because they're
petite;
We love them ~^- and who here can
blame us —
From the top of their heads to their
feet.

But might I of Jove's nectar sip,

I would not change from thine.

There is no gladness in the glass

Unless thou pour for me;
But taste it first before it pass,

Although it reach the rim.

Here's to the girl that's strictly in it,
Who doesn't lose her head even for

a minute,
Plays well the game and knows the

limit,
And still gets all the fun there's in it.

A TOAST BOOK

Here's to the friends we love so well,

To those so far away!
If a drink of cheer would bring them

We would drink the livelong day.

A TOAST BOOK

The Frenchman loves his native
wine,
The German loves his beer,
The Englishman loves his 'alf and

Because it brings good cheer.
The Irishman loves his " whisky

Because it gives him dizziness;
The American has no choice at all,

So he drinks the whole d-----

A TOAST BOOK

Now, boys, just a moment! You've

all had your say,
While enjoying yourselves in so

pleasant a way.
We've toasted our sweethearts,

our friends, and our wives,
We've toasted each other, wishing

all merry lives;
Tis one in a million, and outshines

the rest;
Don't frown when I tell you this

toast beats all others, —
But drink one more toast, boys — a

toast to " Our Mothers! "

Our joy shall always last, —    
Our hopes shall brighten days to
