Dear Dad" he wrote, I'm here in
France
And sharing in each Yank advance.
We're driving back the filthy Hun,
The Heinies now are Oh the run,
And l am well and strong tonight,
Except for little things that bite.
"Do you recall those happy days
We sat before the log fires blaze
Within our little parlor sung,
With Shep asleep upon the rug,
And heard the clock tick on the shelf
Except when Shep would scratch HIM
self?
And there were times, with sudden
zip,
He'd bite himself upon the hip,
Then turn his head in manner queer
To scratch himself behind the ear,
Then, like the whirling OF gale
Get up and madly chase his tail.
"Well, Dad, do not want to brag,
But since in France / serve the Flag,
I'll say, in running down flea,
Shep never had thing on me!
In fact think I've learned to do
Some twists our old dog never knew.
ave used to scold and put him out,
We would not let him stay about
When he began to thump the floor,
But, oh, when | get home once more,
I'll let Shep scratch the evening
through,
Because, you see, I've had 'em, too. y
