OUR EDITOR
On subjects wondrous, vast and various, Perplexing, wild and multifarious — The letters come by every post, An eager and inquiring host!
Poor editor npon her chair, Must know of every when nnd -where — Of everything beneath the sun Must know just how nnd why 'twas dono.
Some maids havo literary dreams And offer to contribute reams; While countless numbers hope to climb The hill of fame with jingling rhyme.
Some girls whoso sizo is rather small Beg a receipt to make them tall; Another's nose is short and snubby— Another's hair is stilf and scrubby.
Yet, spite of toils and worries sore, Our editor would grieve far more Should boys nnd girls no longer send Letters to her as to their friend. : —From Tlielina Pascoe, 71 River Road, Hamilton (adapted).
