version of "The Children's Hour" will have to be arranged, and it might as well be done now and got over with.

        Between the dark and the day-light,

        When the night is beginning lo lower,

        Comes a pause in the day's occupation

        Which is known as the children's hour.

        'Tis then appears tiny Irving

        With the patter of little feet,

        To tell us that worms become dizzy

        At a slight application of heat.

         [pg 015]

        And Norma, the baby savant,

        Comes toddling up with the news

        That a valvular catch in the larynx

        Is the reason why Kitty mews.

        "Oh Grandpa," cries lovable Lester,

        "Jack Frost has surprised us again,

        By condensing in crystal formation

        The vapor which clings to the pane!"

        Then Roger and Lispinard Junior

        Race pantingly down through the hall
