ee ‘TH E Why They Do It. Two women leaned over the backyard fence (The samme old tence) as the sun went dow D, W hile exch told the other, in confidence, Ihe scandals she'd gathered around the For women must gossip or they cant sleep: Lheir idea is that secrets weren’t made to keep: So they sit on the fence in the gloaming. Io women sat out on the front-door stoop, In the eveniag glow, as the sun went dewn, [They told how their children hed skipped the : 4 roup, And they sneered at the minister's wife's new gown. For women delight in a friendly chat Without it their lives would be stale and flat, So they sit on the stoop in the gloaming. Two husbands came home from the baseball game- From the office, they said—-as the sun went down, Both ready and eager to hear the same Sweet scandal their wives had hunted aown, For men, though they work, love gossip, too— And that’s why their wives seek something new, As they meet and talk in the gloaming.
