DREADFUL.

DREADFUL.
I'm glad I'm not poor Bobby Blick
Who lives across the street from us,
He surely must be awful sick
To stir up such a dreadful fuss.
He's been in bed for most week,
The doctors go there every day; ..
They always whisper when they
speak
And all the neighbors keep away.
They've put a sign on Blick's front
That's frightened every one in town
And Mr.. Blick just stormed and
swore
And said he'd tear the blamed thing
down.
I tell you what, it makes me sad
To think some kid is nearly dead
1t must be something dreadful bad,
To Judge by all the things he said.
I've had the mumps and had the
Group,
The measles and the chickenpox,
And whooping cough till l could
whoop
SO every one could hear for blocks.
And Bobby Blick has had them all,
With cramp and toothache in be-
tween.
And now he's sick with what they
call
A dreadful case of quarantine.
/ never heard the name before -
It's quite a terrible disease:
And when | look at Blick's front door
l fairly tremble at the knees.
They say the doctors disagree.
and though / don't know what they
mean,
I'm surely glad it isn't me
That's sick in bed with quarantine.

the Milwaukee road, They where billed
to the officer commanding the British
remount depot at Calumet, ILL.,, and
