was weeping tears-bucket-s size drops that showed signs OF drowning

Burns Club Picnic, S-l6-18.

Burns Club Picnic, S-l6-18.
Pm not Robert Burns,
AS you very soon will know.
But to his annual picnic
l most every season go.
Pm not the whole thing either,
AS some would like to be.
But i like to do my bit,
And do it to a 7.
I'm not Mrs. Scarlet,
For she can play or sing;
Or wash the dishes after tea,
Or do most anything.
I'm not Jim Smallwood
Whose supposed to entertain.
He never asked a thing of me,
If he had, he'd asked in vain
Pm not Mr.. Hetherton,
For he sings, you see.
Nor Pm not Mrs. Murray,
She's busy as a bee.
Pm not Rev. Hunter,
Although this may seem long;
And I'm not Mr.. DeVol
Or l would sing a song.
Pm not Mrs. Campbell
Or this more Scotch would sound.
Nor Mrs. jackson or Wetch,
But I'm here upon the ground.
And SO l might go on
The whole list through;
But if l did, you'd all get sore,
And this would never do.
But just to make it sure
You'll know just who / be:
Here's a few that / am not,
And let you guess and see.
Hanna, the governor,
You surely know, not he;
Nash, the lawyer?
This could never be.
Not Frazer nor Gardner
Or Wilson, the ice cream man;
Not Truax nor Cooper,
But am one of the clan.
Not Crane nor Col. Frame,
Not Hutchinson or Lang;
Not Glib, Graham or McLain;
I'm just one Of the gang.
Neither am Evens,
AS some of you might say;
Nor am l Mrs. Stevens
Who is here with US today.
Now, look around the bunch
And see just who is here.
And, if you get bunch
Don't forget to cheer.
This is all l have to say,
And think I've done my bit
For such a rainy day,
So here is where l quit.

CHAPTER XIV.
The German People.

The oath OF allegiance which every
German soldier and public official
takes binds him FIRST to support the
kaiser, with his life and his money,
and then the fatherlnnd.
That Is what the kaiser referred to
when he said. in the course Of an adj
dress to a body OF recruits at Pots
dam:
'Body and soul you belong to me.
IL command you % shoot your fa-
theirs and your mothers you
must follow my command without a
murmur."
The same thought Is involved. OF
course, In the kaiser's lnyariable use
OF the possessIve pronoun, first person
10 talking OF the German people. He
always says envy people" never "thc
people" The worst feature about Il
Is that not only does the kaiser pro
coed upon the assumption that he owns
the German people body and soul,
but the people themselves are Willing
