THE KID HAS GONE TO THE
COLORS
IBY w. NJ. Herschelll


The Kid has gone TO the Colors
And we don't know what to say;
The Kid we have loved and cuddled
Stepped out for the flag to-day.
We thought him a child, baby,
With never care at all;
But his country called him man-sized
And the Kid has heard the call
He paused to watch the recruiting,
Where, fired by the fife and drum
He bowed his head to Old Glory
And thought that it Whispered
"Come!"
The Kid, not being Stacker
Stood forth with patriot JOY
To add his name to the roster
And, God we're proud of the boy.
The Kid has gone to the Colors;
1t seems but a little while
Since he drilled a school-boy army
In :, truly martial style.
But now, he's a man, a soldier,
And we lend him listening ear;
For his heart is heart all loyal
Unscourged by the curse of fear.
His Cad when he told him, shuddered
His mother-God bless her! cried !;
Yet, blest with a mother nature
She wept with a mothers pride.
But he whose old shoulders straight
ened
Was grand-dad-for memory ran
To years when he, to, a youngster,
Was changed by the Flag to a man!
