dc.description	Advertising postcard for the Dreamland Theater, featuring a poem by local veteran R. N. Percy about World War I. Caption on front: The Devil Resigns His Job. The Devil sat by a lake of fire, on a pile of sulphur [sic] kegs. His head was bowed upon his breast, and his tail between his legs, A look of shame upon his face, the sparks dropped from his eyes, He had sent his resignation to the throne up in the skies,. "I'm down and out," the Devil said -- he said it with a sob; "There are others that outclass me and I want to quit the job. Hell isn't in it with the land that lies beyond the Rhine. I'm a has-been and a piker and therefore I resign. On ammunition maker with his blood shot and shell, Knows more about damnation than all the imps of hell Give my job to Kaiser Wilhem, the author of this war; He understands it better a million times by far. I hate to leave the old home, this spot I love so well, But I feel that I'm not up-to-date in the art of running hell. R. N. Percy GAR Vetern [sic] 2 W. Goguac Street.
