/" Enlisted To-Day"

I know the sun shines and the acs are blowing,
And Summer send kisses by beautiful May
Oh 10 all the treasures the spring Is bcstowng,
And think my poor Willie enlisted to-day. p.
II seems but day since at twilight low humming,
rocked him to sleep with his cheek upon mine,
While Robby the four year old watched for the coming
or father, adown the streets indistnct line.
1t is many year since my Harry departed,
To come back nc more In the twilight or dawn;
And Robby grew weary of watching and started
Alone Oh the journey his father had gone.
II may be year--a and this afternoon, sitting ...
At Robby's old window, heard the band play,
And suddenly ceasing dreaming over my knitting
To recollect Willie is twenty to-day.
And that standing beside him this soft May day morning
The sun making gold Of his wreathing cigar smoke,
I saw In his sweet eye and lips faint warning,
Aud choked down the tears when he eagerly spoke
Dear mother, you know those traitors growing
They trampled the folds of the flag in the dust
The boys are all fire and they wish were going"
He stopped, but his eyes said, Oh, say If must
smiled the boy, though my heart II seemed breaking
My eyes filled with tears, so turned them away;
And answered him Willie, tits well you are waking
Co. act as your father would bid you to-day!'
sit in the window and see the flag flying,
And dreamly list to the roll Of the drum,
And smother the pain that in my heart Is lying,
And bid all the fears in my bosom be dumb.
I shall sit in the window when summer Is lying
Over the fields, and the honey bees hum
Lus the at the porch from her tremuleus sghin
And watch for the face Of my darling to come.
And II he should fall-his young life given
For Freedoms sake-and for me, l will pray
Once more with my Harry and Robby in heaven
To meet the dear boy that enlisted to-day
