The Children We Love

The children we love, Oh where do they 60,
When tired of play, and their tiny bare
Turn down the broad road where the but
tercups grow
And beautiful skies and the meadowlands
All happy and tired, Oh where do they go,
The children we love; does any one know?
The children we love, Oh what do they see
Beyond the bright fields, that calls them
away,
That leads the dear children from you and
And leaves them no choice but to go and
obey;
What vision attracts them, what fate can
What is it wonder, that little folks see?
The children we love become women and
A toll Time claims, but in fancy see
Their shadows. still happy and joyous as
when
They romped and they prattled all day
at our knee
They seek the far fields and the blossoms,
and then
They live in the bloom of the flowers again.

American aviators in France have been
using them altogether. Heretofore the
machines were all made in Europe, it being

addressed himself to the question of how
cheese would enter into the chastening of

light, turned it about to show off it's col

approved it. The effect on the enemy
may still be in doubt, but cottage cheese,
