THE FIRST LITTLE CAR.
You may glide in your, costly saloon, With nonchalance crossing the map; You may speed with melodious croon, Secure from defect or mishap— You’ve worked and you’ve won—now second to none You may shine as a motoring star. But, spend what you will, you can’t capture the thrill Of your first little car. How you toiled with that wrist-wrick-ing crank, Till you finally got her to start, And you packed yourself in, oh, the swank And the joy in your fluttering heart! How she’d knock, and she’d stop, if vou urged her on “top.” How you “changed” with a clank and a jar I Well—your horse-power has grown, but the magic has flown With your first little car.
