Raising Child" in Vermont
(By Daniel L. CaS.yl

How good the folks all used to be
How good and kind to one another
Twas seldom that you'd ever see
A boy or girl without mother;
For if the truly mother sped
Away to fill loftier station,
Some friend stood sponsor for the
dead
And kept intact the dear relation.
Your grandpa's folks, you're proud to
own,
Brought up some boy the spotted
fever,
Or canker rash left all alone
l used to hear how Milo Seaver
When four years old lost all his kin,
His father, mother, brother, sister,
But Deacon Densmore took him in
And kept him till his name was
mister"
Most everybody raised child
That had no special claim to favor;
They didn't let boy run wild,
A girl had friends enough to save
her;
That lad that Uncle Paul* espoused,
The little Ms.tt--in manhood, later,
The nations senate charmed and
reused
And early hardships made him
greater
But now you can't get near your
work
Unless you pass some tall asylum,
So full of kids it takes a clerk
To index up their cards and file
'em;
They wait like little soldiers there,
But oft in vain, for home promo
ton;
Their wistful eyes for foster care
And foster love bespcak devotion.
I'd rather wear rag-cloath blouse
And have my shoes a trifle dirty,
Than live in some great Gothic house
And jest be Orphan number
Thirty"
I'd rather have some farmers wife
A-tell me, "Fetch the kindling,
Charlie"
Than be fenced in for half my life
And never have no soup but barley.
The war, may be, will do us good
And make US less parured and pei
fish;
We'd all be thankful if it would,
We'd rather all be nice than selfish;
But too much salaried system, p'r'aps,
To many letters "dic" and formal,
Have pushed the children from our
laps
And warped US from the Christian
normal.
*Governor Paul Dillingham; brought
up Matt Fl. Carpenter, who became
U. S. Senator from Wisconsin.
