The Town of After Ten.

I wlsht I was as big as men, To see the Town of After Ten > I’ve heard it Is so bright and gay, It’s almost like another day. But to my bed I’m packed *olf straight. When that old clock strikes half-past eight! It’s awful hard to be a boy And never know the sort of Joy That grown-up people must have when They’re in the Town of After Ten. Pm sure I don't know what they do, For shops are closed, and too. Perhaps with burglars they go ’rounds And do not dare to' make a sound! Well, soon I’ll be a man, and then I’ll see the Town of After Ten! —Harper’s Magaslne.
