Our Pledge.

The family pledge hung on the wall,
And on it you could see
The names Of mamma and Mary Jane
And Charlie-that lis me.
We did not dare to ask papa
To write upon DIT, too,
So left a place for him to fill
Twas all we dared to do.
He saw our pledge as soon as he
Came i'm the door that night,
And when We saw him read it
1t put us in a fright.
He did not say a word to us
About that pledge at all,
But oft we saw him look at DIT
Hanging upon the wall.
And every night when he came home
He stood and read it through;
We all kept still about its words.
Although we knew them through.
Four weeks passed and then one might
When pa came home to tea,
He took the pledge down from its nail
And then he turned to me,
Go get the pen and ink, my boy,
And let me fill that space,
It looks SO BARE" he slowly said,
A queer look on his face.
And then mamma sat down and cried,
(She said it was for joy
And Mary Jane, she cried some, too,
/ did not-I'm a boy!
And papa said he did not drink
Since that first might when we
Had hung that pledge upon the wall
Where he our names could see.
And ever since that space was filled,
Mamma said so tonight,
Though dark may be our little room
One corners always bright.
