THE BOYLEss TOWN

A cross old woman Of long ago,
Declared that she hated noise:
"The town would be so pleasant, you
know,
II only there were no boys"
She scolded and fretted about Il till
Her eyes grew heavy as lead,
And then. Of a sudden, the town grew
still:
For all the boys had fed.
And all through the long and dusty
street
There wasn't boy in view;
The baseball lot where they used to
meet
Was a sight to make one bfue.
The grass was growing on every
base,
And the paths that the runners
made;
For there wasn't soul IN all the
place
Who knew how the game was
played.
The dogs were sleeping the livelong
Why should they bark OF leap!
There wasn't whistle or call to
play.
And so they could only sleep.
The pony neighed from his lonely
stall.
And longed for saddle and rein;
And even the birds on the garden
wall
Chirped only a dull refrain.
The cherries rotted and went 10
There was no one to climb the
trees;
And nobody had single taste,
Save only the birds and bees.
/ 1here wasn't messenger boy-not
ONE
To speed as such messengers can;
II people wanted their errands done
They sent for messenger man.
There was little, l ween, Of frolic and
noise:
There was less Of cheer and mirth;
The sad old town, since II lacked its
boys,
Was the dreariest place on earth.
The poor old woman began to weep,
Then woke with a sudden scream;
Dear mel" she cried; Il have been
asleep,
And o, what a horrid dream!"
