''We'1l max new Year Calendar,

"See, here are yellow circles bright,
And purple, gray, and red.
A yellow one each pleasant day
Well fix above the date

Here is a purple ring;
And gray for dreary rain, and red
For winds that rudey sing.

"And see how many pleasant days!'
Laughed little Kate.

The rain persistent poured,
And on the roofs like thunder beat,
And in the cutters roared.

Nor did the storm abate;

And caught our breath away.

Cried little Kate.

On every single page there shone
A yellow circle bright!

Make lots of noise,
And run and jump and laugh and shout.
While here and there,
With quiet air,
The girls in couples walk about.

But no one wins,
Although they play with might and main,
For long before
The game is DER
