A little girl wrote the following
composition, and it comes to US by
way Of the Early County News :
"Boys are men that have rot got as
big as their papas, and girls are
young women that will be young
ladies bye and bye. Man was made
before woman. When God looked
at Adam, he said to himself: well,
[ guess | can do better if I try
again, and then he made Eve. God
liked Eve so much better than Adam
that there have been more women
than men ever since. Boys are
trouble. They are wearing on
everything but soap. II l had my
way, half the boys in the world
would be girls and the other halt
would be dolls. My papa is so nice
that l guess he must have been
little girl when he was little boy"
