ONLY A BALL. AN inflated rubber bladder, a bom bastic heap of wind, A plaything for the girls—likewise the boys. You’ve a pin prick in your side and it’s let out all your gas, You’re no longer to be classed among their toys. Once you were bright and shiny (when the paint and all was new), ■Vnd the youngsters would play with you all day. But now you’ve been discarded and your windbag’s had a fall. You’re got dirty, aud your use has passed away, I would not be a ball—a blown up heap of wind— But something more substantial, better made, Something with an inside, something with some vim, Something of a pin prick not afraid. May be the wound will heal, and yofl’ll again be strong, And your past will not dwell- upon your fall. Strive to be more useful, strive fo do some good And be looked' upon as something more than—ball. -MOEE POET. Refreshments Afternoon Tea MESDAMES R.
