The Headliner, holding the copy in hand,
Read with a solemn face:
"The music was very uncommonly grand --
The best that was every provided,
For our townsman Brown presided
At the organ with skill and grace."

And, spread the paper down
On the desk, he dashed in at the top of the screed:
"Great playing by President Brown."
