Willies ftwiqe

Little Willie went to school and* met a bully there <l4 1 Who boxed his ears and pulled his nose and dragged him by the hair; It was a burning shame the way poor Willie was abused; His nose and ears were very sore, his cheeks were badly bruised.

Poor Willie was but twelve years old, the bully was fifteen. And everywhere that Willie went the bigget boy was seety;. There seemed to be no way to dodge the bully’s shameful blows. The only joy he seemed to have was pulling WilHe’s nose. v

The bully’s parents moved away and took their son along. His face was not a pretty thing, though he was big and strong; When Willie learned that he was free from bullying his joy Was such as seldom has been in the breast of any boy.

Next day when Willie went to school he calmly looked around Until a younger, smaller and a frailer boy was found; Then Willie doubled up his fists, and, looking very grim, Bore down upon the little chap and daily bullied him.
