very partial to the poem, Little Crotch

word seeming to wiring her very heart
strings Then she will cry over the fate
OF the little homeless wanderer who could
not sell enough matches to buy bread and
at last froze to death. One day after read
ing the poem very slowly and carefully she
said: Mama | have thought great deal
about Little Gretchen, aad wondered why
she couldn't sell her matches, and think
maybe it was because they were not of the
best quality"
