/THE KID”
By W. M. Herschel],
The kid has gone to the colors,
And we don’t know what to say.
The kid we have loved and euddled
Stepped out far the flag today.
We thought him i child, a baby,
With never a care at'ali,
But hsi country enlled him man size,
And th| kid Jias heard the call.
He paused to watch the recruiting.
Where, fired by the fife and drum.
He bowed his head to Old Glory
And thought that it whispered
“Come!”
The kid, not being a slacker,
Stood forth with patriot joy
To add his name to the roster—
And, God, were proud of the boy!
The kid has gone to the colors
It seems but a little while
Since he drilled a schoolboy army
In a truly martial style.
But now he’s a man, a soldier,
And we lend him listening ear,
For his heart is a heart all loyal,
Unscourged by the curse of fear.
His dad, when he told him, shuddered;
