FORCE 
 
 
Jim Dumps was down upon his luck 
Because he could no longer write a smart article on the 
fiscal question. 
 
He used to growl and groan and grunt 
Because he could not ease a sub-editor’s mind when the 
paper was a column short and only an hour to press-time. 
 
Force so renewed his vital powers 
That he could keep it up for hours ; 
And now he wallows in a bluebook, 
The people call him Sunny Jim.
