SIGNS OF FALL.

Breakfast by the candle light,
Go to work at dawn;
Summer clothes are put away,
Winter clothes are on.
Air is getting chillier
Every blessed morn;
Gloomy folAs are telling US
The frost will get the corn.
Derby hats are back in style,
Straws are put away;
Oysters have come back again,
Furs are on display.
sitting-room is cheerful with
A FIRE of blazing logs;
Football boys are putting on
The seasons fighting toys.
Ducks and geese, will soon. go South,
Hunters are about:
Bird-dogs shiver near the fire,
Seldom venture out.
Schoolgirls, they go smiling,
School-boys wear a frown;
All such things convince us
That Fall has come to town.
