Tell me a story. father dear"
said Helen to me one day,
And climbing my knee she cuddled down
In her own delightful way.
SO / made up a story. as best could.
OF house in a peaceful vale,
boy named John and little white
A dog with curly tail.
II was my undoing. for Helen dear
Fell in love with the dog right then.
And now. each time that she greets me
home,
/ must tell of che dog again.
Surely no doggie was ever born
That had such a wild career.
That got in so many scraps and nights,
And conjured such JOY or fear.
AS a puppy he fell in the pail OF milk.
And | fancy | hear him yell
When he switched his tail in the hot
or the jelly that would not "jer"
Tho Shanghai rooster had thrashed him
twice.
He's been butted by the ram.
His nose has been full OF hedgehog quilts,
And his toes pinched by clam.
Once he was lost in a woodchucks hole,
Where he found the honey, and also
found
That dog shouldn't try 10 bee.
He has battled polecats and fought with
Been tossed by the brindle bull.
Kicked by the mare and stoned by
TIL his cup of woe of full.
But then he has done such noble deeds
Has rounded the frightened sheep,
And once found little lost baby girl
In the swamp where she fell asleep.
| And the more adventures that Carol has.
The more must pa invent.
! TIL my mind is a very dog kennel or tales
And my fancy warped ana bent.
often wish that my Helen's love
For the little white dog might pale
But haven't the courage to Kill that
The dog with the curly tail.
