IN REMEMBRANCE OF GLADNESS GIVEN TO SORROWFUL LITTLE LIVES "The young lambs are bleating in the meadows, The young birds are chirping in the nest, The young fawns are playing with the shadows, The young flowers are blowing toward the west-- But the young; young children, O my brothers, They are weeping bitterly! They are weeping in the playtime of the others In the country of the free." MRS. BROWNING. The original Story of Patsy was written and sold some seven years ago for the benefit of the Silver Street Free Kindergartens in San Francisco.
