(Stocks of oatmeal are rapidly an-
enmulating in Scotland because, it is
said, the Scots are giving up porridge)
Scots •wha'hae on parritch fed, •
Scots, wham ither nations dread,
Is it true what's bein' said?
Not It canna bet
A chiel amang ye takin' notes
Says that Scotland's tired of oats;
µrae Galashiels to John o' Groat's,
• Show him it's a lee! •
:pinna say the thing is true,
Brither Scots, 'twill never do,
England soon wad hae for you
Scorn and contumely!
Wha will be a scurvy loon?
Wha will let putt Scotland doon?
Wtra'll gie tip his parritch-spoon?

ONCE UPON A TIME
(Eugene Field)
My child comes to my knee,
.And tugging, pleads that he may climb
Into my lap and hear me tell
The Christmas tale he loves so well,
A tale my mother told to me,
Beginning, "Once upon a time."
It is a tale of skies that rang
With angel rhapsodies sublime;
Of that great host serene and white
The shepherds 'saw one winter .night
And of the glorious stars that Mg-
An
angAn anthem, once upon a time.
This story of the hallowed years
Tells of the sacrifice sublime; 4
Of one who prayed alone and wept
While his awearied followers slept—
And now his blood and Mary's tears
Commingled, once upon a time,
And now my darling at niy side
And echoes of the distant chime,
Bring that sweet story back to pie
, Of. Bethlehem and Calvary,
And if the gentle Christ that died
of-'once upon a time.
tp AAlcr
That mighty deeds that men have told,
In ponderous tones or flowing rhyme
Like misty shadows fade away—
But this sweet. story bides for aye,
'And like .the stars that song of old,
We sing of••"Once upon a time."
