Indian Children*

Where we walk to school each day

Indian children used to play-

All about our native land,

Where the shops and houses stand.

And the trees were very tall, And

there were no streets at all,

Not a church and not a steeple­

Only woods and Indian people.

Only wigwams on the ground,

And at night bears prowling round­

What a different place to-day

Where we live and work and play!
