END OF FUN by ANNETTE WYNNE

First Line: ROVER LIES ALL IN A HEAP
Last Line: SCHOOL BEGAN TO-DAY!
Subject(s): CHILDREN; SCHOOLS; SEPTEMBER; CHILDHOOD; STUDENTS;

ROVER lies all in a heap
Fast asleep;
No more fun in food or play—
Jimmie's gone away,
School began to-day!

You big folks that make the rules
For the schools,
Can't you see things Rover's way?
Can't you let a fellow play?
Jimmie's up and gone
With his school-clothes on;
End of summer, end of play,
Jimmie's gone away—
School began to-day!
