TALES OF CHILDREN.
A Modern Grandmother.

l want to see grandmother like
those there used to be,
In a cosy little farmhouse where |
could go to tea;
A grandmother with spectacles and
funny, frilly cap,
Who would make me sugar cookies,
and take me on her lap,
And tell me lots of stories of the days
when she was small,
When everything was perfect-not
like today at all.
My grandmother is grandma" and
she lives in a hotel
And when they ask, What is his
age?" she smiles and will not
tell.
Says she doesn't care to realize tnat
she is growing old;
Then she whispers-"But you're far
too big a boy for me to hold"
Her dresses shine and rustic, and her
hair is wavy brown,
And she has an automobile, that she
steers, herself, down town.
My grandmother is pretty. do
love her?" Rather-yes;
Our Norah calls her stylish, and on
the whole l guess
She's better than the other kind, lot
once when l was i'll
She helped my mother nurse me, anu
read to me until
| fell asleep; and stayed WIN m''
and wasn't tired, and then
She played nine holes of golf with me
when I got out again.
Yet, because I've never seen one, just
once | want to see
A real old-fashioned grandmotne''
like those there used to BE-
