AN UNPOPULAR BILL
AN UNPOPULAR BILL.
'Dear ''Non-Com." - We were spelling in France, and at the estaminet was a sweet young fixing called Marie, who had spent some time in London, and had a fair working knowledge of our lingo.
Billy Brown was much attracted, and introduced his cobber, Bill Mac. "Ah!” said the smiling Marie, "you Billee, too, and zere is - how you, call him - ze President of Australia, Billee Hughes.''
“Yes," said Brownie, “it's a tres bon name, all right." Then there's. 'Kaiser Billy.”
"Uh," retorted Marie. "He what you call gets my goat - ze Billy Goat!”
"Mac," 28th, Subiaco.
