Mister Ron's Basement #1700

This is the 1700th Episode of Mister Ron's Basement!

'Walt Mason's little sermonettes in rhyme are gospels, and they are going about doing good.' -- Robert J. Burdette

This week we are offering more of Walt's 'prose poems' from the 1911 collection, 'Walt Mason - His Book.'

In our era of online Flame Wars and angry people expressing themselves violently, Walt Mason offers some great advice -- 'Put It On Ice.'
