THERE was a young girl who had a dog. One day she missed him, and thought he might be off to the city with her father. She stepped to the telephone and called her father, asking, 'is Curly there?' Her father answered that he was.
"Please lift him in your arms, and put the receiver to his ear," requested the little girl.” Her father did so, and she called, "Come home, Curly, come home."
Doggie looked astonished, for he heard his mistress' voice, but could not see her, However, he understood what was wanted, and instantly obeyed, bolting out of the door and running home.
Curly was a wise and obedient dog, Will you from this time be a wise and obedient child? One calls to you from the Father's house,
Will you not at this time say,
"O, Lamb of God, I come."
Come, the Father's house stands open
With its love, and light and song,
And returning to that Saviour,
All to you may now belong.
Come, for night is gathering quickly
O'er this world's fast fleeting day;
If you linger till the darkness,
You will surely miss your way.
