A collage of humorous lines and poems with quips about family life, sports slang, advertising, and social satire. It rails at overbearing advice and the pretenses of daily existence while peppering references to baseball coaching, army recruiting concerns, and light verse from various periodical sources. It includes jests about parents, children, marriage, and common city life, with a stream of playful couplets and cartoonish observations.
