daddy ca,hird flew right up close to
q corner where three cats grandma
had left lay sleeping. They fused
and talked In their way TO the cats.
They were not afraid that the cats
would catch them, and the cats did
not try; they just looked ashamed.
III was SO funny we watched a long
time, and We think the cats mus,
jhave robbed the poor little birds of
their nest and baby birds. They must
he mean cats. for they catch BABY

Rol ms softly calling.
Apples red are falling,
In the fall
springs green leaves are turning,
Roniircs brightly burning,
Nacationo:s returning.
In the fall.
Children all are singing
On tree branches swinging.
Sweet bclls softly ringing.
In the fall
