A Child's Troubles

A CHILD'S TROUBLES.

I wish I knew my letters well,
So I might learn to read and spell;
I'd find them on my pretty card,
If they were not so very hard.

"Now S is crooked - don't you see?
And G is making mouths at me,
And O is something like a ball, -

And all the rest are - my! so queer!
They look like crooked sticks - oh, dear!
Ma counted six, and twenty more;
What do they have so many for?

From St. Nicholas

Use a pencil to trace the basic outline of the drawing. The chalk should t...

Kitchen Cabinet Plans, Instructions included by Klenke.        A kitchen is a room or part of a room used for cooking and food preparation in a dwelling or in a commercial establishment.
