Good Little Willie.

With a “ki-yl” and an aggravating rattle, the scared dog shot around the corner, a tin can hanging from the end of its tail. The small boy who had fixed the tin can in its place stopped laughing when a stern voice came to his ears - “William!” It was his father whs spoke. “Did you tie that tin can tc the poor dog’s tall?” Willie did some rapid thinking Then he replied. Innocently: “Yes, father, I did. Pm trying tc do one kind act every day, and that dog is always chasing cats, so I tied the tin can to its tail so that it would make a noise and warn the poor little cats.”
