ufal America"
They have a Town Improvement" and
they have a "Woman's Club"
An it seems to me that Orter been
enough
But they had another meetin' 'roun' to
Jimmy's house las night,
To talk about Back Yards" and all
that stuff.
OF co'se Mas she's the President, an
Back Door Inspector" too,
An she says her work begins right here
at home
Which Pa says is improvement, an he'd
give q helpin' hand,
IL it didn't SCUM too much like King
dom Come.
So las Sat day up Ma yanked me TO
could slip away,
An she marched me roun' our back
yard on q tour"
An she tOle me how twas criminal for
folks 10 throw about
Ole cans, an things what make the air
impure.
She said she was determined with
what strength within law lay,
With earnest work to swell the Nations
Fame,
So that the words AMERICA, in twice
five years from now,
And BEAUTIFUL would ever mean
the same.
Then she went to specifyin' ell the
change she meant to make,
How we'd cover all the fences with a
vine
An she said the splendid kennel what
me an Jimmy made,
Was "edifs most hijeous in design u
The ash barrel should be painted "a
bright, artistic red,
'TWOuld lend touch of color TO the
scene -
An the chicken-cOOp an cow-shed,
would both be much improved
II I'D paint 'em iv'ry-white with bars
Of green
An then when / had plOughed it, an
had planted it In grass,
An had burnt up me an Jimmy's cir
Gus tent;
An had tore down "thOse old wires
meanin' our telefOne-
She'd consider that "her time had been
well spent ]"
Ma does a power of tall1in' an her lang
Widge is plum smart,
An she'll make you think She 3 done
Orful lot;
But set down on the Woodpile, when
she'd gone into the house,
An'-goOd gracious IL can tell you
was hot
'Twasn't me that joined the "baek-
doors u 'twasn't me that said I'D
spend
Gan my strength to swell the Nations
Fame -
Then to tear down my nice dog-house,
an burn my circus tent
IT'S what l call a downright cryin'
shame
tole Pa that improvement shouldn't |
always 'start at home"
But he said that the exception proved |
the rule ;"
An he tole me to be pashunt, that it all
would wear away;
An / tell you What-my Pa-he-aint-
no-fool
