Scope and Contents

Sheet of paper containing the typed lyrics to the Golden Age Song, the Goodbye Song, and Toast. Below is a transcript of each:

[Golden Age Song] The Golden Age is a happy time--in every one of our lives. We'll sail along and sing a song--as we glide along through life. We live our lives from day to day--go to our club each week. We knit our rugs and pop our corn--and life then seems complete.

[Goodbye Song] Now is the hour--we'll have to say goodbye, Soon we'll be sailing--far across the sea. While you're away--Oh then remember me, When you return--you'll find me waiting here.

[Toast] I drink your health in water, wishing it were wine, I wish you all good luck, And not forgetting mine, [here the page has been cut].
