The note set Crazy Jones moving. He 
heard a dog whine, and a few minutes la-

by his hound. He had been shot through

SWEET. 
Splashing about in a pool in the bog 
Is a gay and happy young polliwog, 
His young frog heart full of joy and doubt 
Of all the wonderful things about;

His nursery left 
And his funny tail cast, 
His knowledge enlarged, 
And his legs uncurled, 
And he can go hopping out into the world.
