HE WHO LAUGHS LAST" —APRIL FOOL They said, “We never should do it" And that it was useless to try, For crows were not like coyotes That these pesky things could fly Away up in the heavens To far for a rifle to reach, And there, they would simply Caw, Caw, * In their well known runcious screech. But say! Didn’t we show them— Why we brought in proof by the load; And didn’t we leave black feathers Just scattered along every road? And didn't the sound of the shooting, Help convince them we were right; Especially when it continued Far, far into the night ? Did you notice the number that turned out, Old men, hair white as snow, Cripples, whose eyes just sparkled, ‘Tho of course necessarily slow; Boys from the town and the country, Men from all walks of life, Every one on the same mission; And a boon companion in strife. Why before the hunt, it was common For crows to sit by the door, To take all the feed from the chickens, and then caw around for some more. * They would tackle a hen or a pigeon; And if left alone until now, They would have mustered up courage To tackle a hog or a cow. «■* i night. In a year they’d have taken the country; Just taken all crops in a lump, And then when they become hungry, They’d have tackled the tractor or pump. Why it wouldn’t be safe in the day time, We would have to hunt cover, like moles, For if we came out for a minute; They’d peck our baH-head full of holes. But I notice now, (and with pleasure,) There’s a vacancy on hill and on tree; And when I arise in the morning, There is no hateful caw greeting me, Where there used to be such a clatter, The pigs couldn’t hear my loud call; Now the silence is nearly oppressive, But I really don’t mind it at f 11. There’s a few left yet—That’s granted But they are so scared they fly high; And a part of these we will get yet, For they'll starve and fall by and by; And the others have had such a lesson, That I think we’ve a right to Haw, Haw, For the few that) leaves, will hit Kan sas, Before they will dare to Caw, Caw. Now the axiom that, “he who laughs last ”; With the assertion: “he also laughs best,” Has once more proved to be truthful When put to an actual test, For tho crows still caw in Kansas, Yet the fact doesn’t make us get sore, Since we can now laugh at our leisure Without being mocked any more.
