I saw the queerest race today
Out at a county fair.
The riders nil woro tiny tots.
The rncurH nil wero rare.
1 saw n little winsome maid,
With Hying- yellow hair
Hold fast and ride around a ring
Upon a big brown bear,
Another ono laughed loud In glee
And rnccd around tho track,
And sho wuh seated fcnrlcssly
Upon (i lion's back.
And ono rode on u tiger llerce,
Another on a deer,
Will o others rode on prancing steeds
Without n sign of fear.
And round and round tho track they
rode,
All tit u mpld ihicp.
And no one beat. tin. nil tiled hard
To win i he fnniiv raer.
At last tho racci enino to rout,
Tho muslo ceased to sound,
And all the little tots went homo
And loft the morry-go-round.
