Text Appearing Before Image:
Theres a wreck on Toy Railroad^ I see,A train has jumped the track; Dispatch the wrecker as soon as you can,They must get the wrecked train back. Send for the President of the road; Summon the Roadmaster, quick ;Bring every workman that you can, Armed with a shovel and pick* Theres a wreck in Toyland, near the bridge: Dewey, the new compound.Ran through an open switch at the curve And stuck her proud nose in the ground. Whos to blame for this accident ? Wire the railroad men!Send a special as quick as you can To the curve near Concrete Glen! You say they are coming ?

With the owner for PresidentAnd Wrecker and Roadman and Laborer too; May no message for help be sent. My boy this Road is soon forgot. But those little wrecks you cleared Will help clear many a wreck in life. On the Road that others have feared. Be always your Wrecker and President! Dont send your messages home.He that succeeds does not wait for help But clears his own track, alone. ©oit Sato Hje Cijifir I saw a little kitten in the strangest place, And it had t
