BERT WHYTE ON VACATION Vacation blues A bunch of the Wards were whooping it up at their su) bian location, The whooping and yelling was sure something fi was getting time for vacation. Armed with a stick, with a good long flick, and i mood for kisses And watching the pack for a spot to whack was the who’s called the missus. When out of the night that was hot as a rod and into™ howling mob, There stumbled a dad, a wretched old cad, who was kno as Cantankerous Bob, He looked like a man with a foot in the grave, the oll! on a banana, 4 His eyes were red as his bank account and he crazily m tered, “Manana.” A big blank gaze was on his face like a man hallucinations, ° His mouth had a twitch like the seven year itch, and kept on screeching “vacations.” There’s times when kids can be real quiet (like when they” sound asleep). When little mushes are full of hushes and utter na peep. This was such a spell for the kids knew well ’twas no UF for yackety-yacking. For the night it had come when dad helped mom with job of holiday packing. When it comes to packing (matter of facting) he was ! more creep than bop, And folks who knew from a pack-side view, maintail _ he was much of a slop. Did you ever work in an open ae when the boss wa the prowl ? When every guy felt the evil eye an figured he’d get t howl, Well that’s what happens every year when vacation comes back. And Cantankerous Bob must face the job of helping missus to pack, He’s ready to rare like a grouchy old bear, has a con leer on his face, a And he trembles with fright at the name or the sight club bag or any suitcase. And that’s how it was on this awful night, to think © causes great fear, When Cantankerous Bob had the horrible job of he to pack up the gear. You could tell by the smell he’d been fortified well at Calamute saloon. 5 And he floated around with one foot off the ground: a crazy, mixed-up balloon; It was easy to tell he was ready to yell; he was just o0 verge of cracking. And his hands they were twitching and straining arou going through all the motions of packing. The missus just sat through the whole ordeal wit! even cracking a smile. She knew that Bob, the Cantankerous slob, was offi addicted to guile. - : She knew in a trick he’d claim he was sick and had %a case of the jitters. j So with accent quite sweet she cut off his retreat lik cow-poke cuts off them thar critters. ° i She said. “There’s no use to seek an excuse, we’ve got get on with the job, % We all know your score, we’ve heard it before, so nop | it Cantankerous Bob.” ‘ There’s none who will know how Cantankerous survil and lived through that dreadful job, But the packing was done e’er the rise of the sun; and was Cantankerous Bob. $ Folk in the district claim this is true, they swear were there to:hear, : That Bob roared on leaving, “If we live through this, W sure stay at home come next year.’ —BOB WARD in Canadian UE July 27, 1956 — PACIFIC TRIBUNE — P
