PRESIDENT JUDGE

7   Generoso D'Allesandro
        Oh! ho!
Generoso
D'Allesandro,
Must it ever go so?
Speak it easy all the land thro'
Speak it easy when you tell her
Of the bottles in the cellar.
 
8   August M. Finkbeiner, No. 319
Oh Finkbeiner!
Oh Finkbeiner!
What is finer,
Or diviner
Than Milwaukee beer?
But when seen
On table green,
With slot machine,
Froth and flavor disappear.
 
9   George Dokenwadel, No. 379
Dokenwadel
Was fur ein twaddle
About a "boddle"?
When you sell it
Why not tell it?
 
10 Arnholt & Schaefer Brewing Co., No. 400
Policy men and toughs
Gamblers, bawds and roughs.
Abide in Sansom Street
And in speak easies meet.
But when Carter, Noyes and Brownley greet
Throw down their money and offer treat,
'Tis necessary to be discreet.
 
11 Frederick W. Wolf, No. 426 (A bottler who sold beer to the

Kensington Athletic Club, No. 3643 Market Street).

On the Kensington sward
In the Twenty-fourth ward
Are trained athle — tes.
They stride from afar
Cling close to the bar
And swift run into diabetes.
