THE HOUSE WHERE THE CHILL
DREN Play
BY Edgar d. Guest.

THE HOUSE WHERE THE CHILL
DREN PLAY
On every street there's a certain
place
Where the children gather to romp
and racer
There's a certain house where they
meet in throngs -
To play their games INC to sing
their songs T.
And they trample. the lawn with
their tireless feet
And they scatter their playthings
But though some folks order them
off, I say.
Let the house be mine where the
children play.
Armies gather about the door II
And iii the air with their battle roar,
Cowboys swinging their lariat loops
Dash round, the house with the Wild
est whoops,
And old folks have to look out when
they .
Are holding an Indian tribe at bay,
J For danger may find them on flying
feet
Who pass by the house where the
children meet.
There are lawns too lovely to bear
the weight
OF a troup of boys when they roller
skate,
There are porches fine that must
never know 90
The stamping of footsteps that come
I and go.
But IN every street there's a favorite
place
Where the children gather to romp
4 and race,
And I'm glad in my heart that it's
mine TO say
Ours. is. the house Where the children
play.

THE GREAT GA K IN TROUBLE.

Tinker Bob was so sorry for poor
palace in the midst Of the Forest that
he might get ready to take the Jay
bird to the realm OF the Lost where
he could get fitted <eut with the
proper kind Of feathers. When they
arrived at the palace there were the
four and twenty Blackbirds, as happy
as could be. Major Pole Cat had taken
very good a of them in the absence
of the King. There was o. Postum
standing on his head in the orner,
too. 1t, seemed a long time to him for
he had nothing to eat and his head
was getting sore.
"All right, o. POssum. YOU may
get down now if you think you can
tell me the truth and let the Black
birdS~alone." O.. Possum was glad to
be relieved, but he was very stiff for
he stood SO long on his head.
Now when Red Wing saw his
friends safe and sound. he rejoiced
with a thousand of his followers, and
the chatter of Blackbirds became
deafening. Tinker Bob could not
even hear what Major Pole Cat had
to say about the deep hole in the
ground that Red Fox had been dig
ging.
In the very midst or this confusion,
Mr.. Bluebird was trying to call the
Kings attention, but the Blackbirds
were making so much noise that his
cries were unheardI He had a mes
sage for the King and he must de-
liver it, SO he flew from his perch
and lit on the Kings shoulder, and
