JANE.
(Copied by Lor) or a Thurlow, Manunui, North Auckland.) When I go to bed at night, When they take away the light. When they say "good-night" once more, When they nearly shut the door, And they don't come back again, Then 1 have to call to Jane. Jane is two, and very small, Jane can hardly talk at all, .lane is lovely fun by day, When I think of games to play. But at night, when we're in bed, I wish Jane was five instead. "Jane," I call, "dear, darling Jane," "Can't you wake and have a pain?" Can't you make a crying noise (Girls mil do that more than boys.) It" you have the littlest fright, Mummy'll bring us in a light."
