IN SCHOOL AND OUT.
When Jumbo was young and went to school
He soon found out this golden rule,
“Work when you work – play when you play,
That is always the wisest way!”
.
For if you play in school, mayhap,
You’ll have to wear a dunce’s cap;
And he who can’t his lessons say
Will have to work while others play!
.
So Jumbo first his lessons learned,
And then went out, his playtime earned,
And if an Elephant can be so wise
I’m sure a small boy can if he tries.

Jimmie Piggy
It was a sad little Pig that took his place on the stool in the corner of the school-room. And when his little sister Mary slipped into the room, and wrote upon the black-board behind him, “Jimmie is a bad boy,” he could hardly keep from crying.
Jimmie was not a bad Pig, and was not used to being punished. He did not like to be teased, either.
