LITTLE WILLIE IN CANNING TIME

when ma gets busy cannin' things about
this time o. year
And leaves me with the baby fer to watch
49, the little dear,
First thing yo'l know Il falls some way and
gets an awful bump
AN ma comes tearin' up the stairs, nbout
SIX at jump.
She sends me down to watch the stuff
that's boilln' in the pot.
AND oh, the smell that comes from here is
good, | tell YOU what!
But pretty soon, somehow, il gets TO bub.
bin from the top
And ma comes falling over chairs and
things to make it stop.
She gets the cans all set in rows. and when
it's boiled enough
1t splashes on her hands and burns while
she pours in the stuff.
And Just because Pm loollin' on there's
something slips somehow
And down the can goes on the floor. and
gee. but there's a row.
When ma gets busy cannin' things | wish
that / could 60
Far. far away from home-about a thou.
sand miles or So
And then come back along about the time
the tables set
And ma. got out can or two of good
stuff to be ct.

They returned to something akin
TO luxury. The doubts concerning
the manner in which they were to get

hands to her face, and for a moment,
while she sobbed he stood looking at
her. Then h lifted her up, saying:
God help me, I had forgotten
