STOUGH-BETHUNE WINS PRIZE BABY'S BRONZE SHOES Ever mindful of that precious little boy, And all the glorious days of childhood ay; When all the time was bright with youthful play. Then earth to the brim was filled with sheer Joy. Each dimpled smile or look so bright and coy Brought cheer and romance to our life that day. You made us all happy who came your way. And your tear9 brought forth the family's convoy. Molded bronze now shape those exultant feet, While every scar and crease I oft review, Or hear again the sounds they always beat. Every little prattle looms again anew Bringing thoughts of days so very dear and sweet. But, oh how short these fleeting years with you! .Mrs. Arthur D. Gore.
