Exhortinn the Ducks.

There are two tiny boys in this town
whose mother sings often to them at
their request, and as she is an ardent
church woman, the children hear as
many hymns as anything else. The 9th
er day they were playing with their
wooden ducks in the bathtub, and
strangely enough the ducks were more
inclined TO float sideways than in the
approved manner. After several at
tempts to keep the misguided ducks
straight the older boy shouted:
stand up, duck. stand up" Then
tw~o-year-old, noting the familiar
phrase. leaned over the tub and ex
horted: "'Tand up, duck! 'Tand up
Cor Jesus!"
