MY LITTLE GIRL
montgomery Advertiser

montgomery Advertiser.
Today my daughter who is seven
years old, started to school as usual.
She wore a dark blue dress with
white collar. She had on black shoes
and wore blue gloves. Her cocker
spaniel, whose name is "Coot," sat on
the front porch and whined his can
inc belief in the folly of education as
she waved goodbye" and started off
to the halls of learning.
Tonight we talked about school,.
She told me about the girl who sits
in front of her-the girl with yellow
curls-and the boy across the aisle
who makes funny faces. She told me
about her teacher, who has eyes in
the back of her head-and about the
trees in the school yard-and about
the big girl who doesn't believe in
Santa Claus. We talked about a lot
of things tremendously vital, un-im-
portant things; and then we studied
spelling, reading, arithmetic - and
then to bed.
She's back there now-back in the
nursery sound asleep, with Princess
Elizabeth" Chats a dolD cuddled in
her right arm. You guys wouldn't
hurt her, would you? You see, I'm
her daddy. When her doll is broken
or her finger is cut or her head gets
bumped, I can fiv .it-but when she
starts to school, when she walks
across the street, then she's in your
hands.
She a nice kid. She can run like a
deer and darts about like chipmunk.
She likes to ride horses and swim
ard hike with me on Sunday after
| moons. But 1 can't be with her all
the time-I have to work to pay for
clothes and her education So please
drive carefully, please drive slowly
past the schools and intersections
and please remember that children
i .un from behind parked cars.
Please don't run over nv little girl.
