Rensselaer Republican, Volume 17, Number 39, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 June 1885 — He Remembered the Encore. [ARTICLE]

He Remembered the Encore.

A mother took her 3-year old son to an afternoon concert, and when the first encore was given he was frightened, and asked his mother why they did so. She said, playfully: “Perhaps they are glad she is done singing,” and thought no more about it. He seemed to be satisfied, and sat thereat of the time reasonably well. The next morning, after his father had asked the blessing the little boy clapped his hands in a very vigorous manner, and when asked why he did so, said: “I’m dad he’s done; I want some fis’.” ' , . It grieves one to the" heart to see them using the bellows who ought to be extinguishing the flame.
