Or quaint, gay frocks,

These babies dear.

I asked them to come and live with me;

Gayly they laughed,

“Pansies are we.”

E. Edwards.

Dear Pansy:

I am so ashamed of myself I don’t like to write to you. I beg your pardon. I have not worn my badge much, and I have not written to you. It is all because I am so neglectful. I will try to wear my badge more.

Mamie Thompson.
