Kellettville. The school was closed, the
stores were closed, the mills and shops
were closed, the phone was closed and q
goodly number of the lives of turkeys,
geese, ducks and chickens came to a
close that day. In fact about the only
thing that was open was the overhanging
clouds from which a drizzling rain de.
scended upon the earth, and l think

sit by the fire and did not have to 20 out
In the rain.

Said B. to B., Thanksgiving day,
These pigs will have tn die today;
or meal and corn they've had their fl
And are, l think, about right to kill.
So they began rs soon ss twas light,
To get their knives all sharpened right.
They worked away and never ceased
Though floating odors proclaimed feast;
And when at last the pigs were hung
And the COOKS cried out "the turkeys
done!'
They washed their hands and gathered
round
The board where good eats did abound.
The dinner over, the dishes done,
The ladies tho't they'd have some fun,
While wondering how, they all decide
That Mrs. b. should take a ride.
The laughing group stood roundabout
While Texas broncho was bro't out.
The pony tho't, "Myl What fate!
Am | to carry all this weighl2"
He went up behind and down in front
And then he just reversed the stunt.
Mrs b. was greatly surprised of course
To find she d mouIted a rocking horse.
The frightened crowd stood looking on
And calling out "Hold on! Hold onp'
But his heels went up, his head went
down
And Mrs. B. was on the ground.
His heels went back to take their toll
But Mrs. B. had taken a roll.
When fair young lady from out the
crowd
Mounts this same pony, he steps round
proud;
You never'd have guessed that he oil
course
So lately had been rocking horse.
He carried his load with care and ease
As IL the young lady he tried to please.
Now Mrs. B. take myGadvice,
BEFORE you leap again think twice;
And the time to think is before you
mount
For thinking then will surely count.
Your styling qualities be sure TO decide
Before bucking broncho you try Ia
ride.
