grimly.

But they were not allowed to go

Il remember that a hrecracker Law

for he was afre and was burning up.
But the generals were all too busy.
My general, who was mounted on a
magnificent charger of bamboo with
big silver head, galloped upsto ME
and said, Well, you're busted, and
that was all got after my faithful

The fireworks in the box listened
to this conversation with lively emo

and the rhyme did not always fit. So,
instead of being printed, the poetry
was respectfully declined by so many
publishers that at last the poet, in
stead of sending it out any more, Of

Death, who accepted him at once.
The poetry wandered around from
Irefuse heap to ash man, and from ash
man to junk man till it reached the
fireworks factory, where it was es-
teemed so much (not on account of
the poetry, but on account of the
quality of the paper that it was re-
served for the very special skyrockets
that were to cost not less than 81
each at retail.
SO, after all, it was doomed to rise
high in the world, although not just
as the poet had expected.
Being so full of poetry, it was
natural that the skyrocket should

Now, in reality, the skyrocket was
the most frightened of them all. For
it stood so tall on its three spraddly
| legs that it could see far and wide
so it saw the terrible sights of the
battle-the obedient torpedoes, flying
all to pieces as they struck, the MINI
Bile chasers, darting here and there
with blind courage, only to die in fire
and smoke; and, worse than all, the
regiments and corps and armies of the
lredcoats, the brave frecrackers, being
hurled on the field in platoons to meet
their terrible explosive deaths.
| Everywhere they lay; some smoul-
dering slowly away in agony; others
with their bodies torn in two; still
others with gaping holes in their
straight, soldierly backs and sides; and
Thousands blown apart so utterly that
