one who doesn't possess II.
BY way of encouragement for those
fans who would enter the screen world

tired, hardly takes time to sleep,

The rest of the time she reads and

is the most thoughtful actress for

Where we used to live We had

An all that Sanity had to do
Was hold his breath an slide,
An squeeze hisself until he fit
The hole, an then jest drop
An he knowed where the stockins was,
Cause that was where he'd STOP
Where we used to live it was
No trick for him to climb
Up to the chimbly on the roof
An find us, Christmas-time;
But now I'm worryn for fear
He won't know where he's at,
Or mebbe can't get in at all!
We're Twin in flat.
We're Twin in a flat, an say,
You mus be mos polite,
Or else the janitor he'll go
An lock you out at night!
There amt no chmbly to our house
Where Sanity Claus can slide
There amt no ireplace-just pipe
About two inches wide
They heat our flat with steam-thats why
I'm afraid he can't get in
With all his toys, an drums an things,
Unless he's awful thin;
An how S he go to wiggle out
When he gets in? Gee whz!
There's such an awful little hole
There where the sizze is!
