EVERY-DAY VERSES BY ALDEN ARTHUR KNIPE PICTURES BY EMILIE BENSON KNIPE V. PUTTING ON STOCKINGS Be careful in the morning,For you will find, no doubt, That one or both your stockingsAre surely wrong side out. It may be you were sleepy, When on the night beforeYou pulled them each off backwards, And… … Take time enough to fix them,Look well when you begin, It s always worth the troubleTo turn the rough side in. For when you ve put your shoes onAnd buttoned them up tight, It s vexing to discover Your stockings are not rieht.
