ROBERT REESE

once there was little boy
Whose name was Robert Reese,
And every Friday afternoon
He had to speak piece.
so many poems thus he learned
That soon he had a store
OF Rotations in his head
And still keep learning more
Now this it is what happened:
lie was called upon one week
And totally forgot the piece
He was about to speak.
Ills brain he vainly cudgeled
But no word was in his head,
And sa he spoke at random,
And this is what he said:
: - beautiful, my beautiful,
What standest proudly by,
1t was the schooner Hecperus
The breaking waves dashed high.
Why is the Forum crowded,
What means this stir in Rome?
nder spreading chestnut
There is no place like homo.
When Freedom from her mountain

Cried, Twinkle, little star"
Shoot il you must this old gray head,
King Henry OF Navarro.
If your waking, call me early
20 be or not tobe.
Curfew must not ring tonight,
Oh, woodman, spare that tree.
Charge. Chester, charge! On, S,anlcy,
on!
And let who will be clever,
The boy stood on the burning deck
Sut go on forever

SOLDIERS STAY
 IN COLORADO

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-President Wilson has declined to withdraw the federal troops from the Colorado strike zone.

Many Others.

Hoboes came up for discussion In

Senator Nathan p. Bryan OF Florida
told this anecdote along the Weary

Some time ago a hobo meekly tap
ped on the back door of suburban
home and asked for something to eat.
The good housewife responded that
she would feed him on the back step
along with Fido, providing he was
willing to earn the meal by cleaning
out the gutter.
The tramp agreed, and when he had
eaten his way through several sand
witches to feeling of happiness, the
housewife came out with a reliable
looking hoe.
You needn't have gone to that trou-
BILE, madam" said the hobo, sizing up
the farm implement. IT never use a
hoe in cleaning out a gutter"
Never use hoe!" said the woman
with wondering expression. What
do you use, then, shovel?"
No, madam" replied the hobo.
