Our twins, Clark and Jean, were born

feel that il people would pass along
their thoughts to their friends more
often. the world would be much happi
er for it. We live too much to our
selves, and in the pursuit of our world

CLARK AND JEAN

We've a pair Of little cherubs,
Both are almost the same size,
But they're oh! SO very different
Nose and mouth and hair and eyes !;
They're the jolliest little rovers
That think I've ever seen,
But at times-yes, quite annoying
These twin babies, Clark and Jean.
Every morning just at daybreak,
While the sky is tinged with gray.
You may hear them, lusty rascals.
Shouting greetings to the day;
And you know that they've descended
On house erstwhile serene,
And they've sleep and quiet ended.
These twin babies, Clark and Jean.
But with all the work and worry
Though this cunning little pair
Sometimes drives their dad and moth
Almost helpless to despair,
We've decided just to keep them;
There's no fortune yet we've seen
That would tempt US to exchange
them
These twin babies, Clark and Jean.
