Where have they gone to, the little girls
With natural manners and natural curls.
Who love their dollies and like their toys,
And talk of something besides the bows
Little old women in plenty find.
Mature in manners, and old in mind;
Little old firts who talk of their beaux,
And vie with each other in stylish
clothes.
Little old bellies. who, at nine and ten,
Are sick of pleasure and tired of men,
Weary of travels, of balls, of fun,
And find no new thing under the sun.
Once, in the beautiful long ago,
Some dear little children used to know,
Girls who were merry as lambs at play,
And laughed and rollicked the livelong
day.
They thought not at all of the style of
their clothes,
They never imagined that boys were
beaux-
Other girls brothers and mates we're

Splendid fellows to help them play.
Where have they gone to? If YOU see
One of them anywhere, send her to me.
