# Stops of Various Quills/Another Day

ANOTHER DAY
NOTHER day, and with it that brute joy, Or that prophetic rapture of the boy Whom every morning brings as glad a breath As if it dawned upon the end of death!
All other days have run the common course, And left me at their going neither worse Nor better for them; only, a little older, A little sadder, and a little colder.
But this, it seems as if this day might be The day I somehow always thought to see, And that should come to bless me past the scope And measure of my farthest-reaching hope. ​To-day, maybe, the things that were concealed Before the first day was, shall be revealed, The riddle of our misery shall be read, And it be clear whether the dead are dead.
Before this sun shall sink into the west The tired earth may have fallen on his breast, And into heaven the world have passed away... At any rate, it is another day!
# Stops of Various Quills/Calvary

CALVARY
F He could doubt on His triumphant cross, How much more I, in the defeat and loss Of seeing all my selfish dreams fulfilled, Of having lived the very life I willed, Of being all that I desired to be? My God, my God! Why hast thou forsaken me?
# Stops of Various Quills/Change

CHANGE
OMETIMES, when after spirited debate Of letters or affairs, in thought I go Smiling unto myself, and all aglow With some immediate purpose, and elate As if my little, trivial scheme were great, And what I would so were already so: Suddenly I think of her that died, and know, Whatever friendly or unfriendly fate Befall me in my hope or in my pride, It is all nothing but a mockery, And nothing can be what it used to be, When I could bid my happy life abide, And build on earth for perpetuity, Then, in the deathless days before she died.

THE HERITAGE.
JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL.
Both, heirs to some six feet of sod,
Are equal in the earth at last;
Both, children of the same dear God,
Prove title to your heirship vast
By record of a well-filled past:
A heritage, it seems to me.
Well worth a life to hold in fee.

# Suggestive programs for special day exercises/Washington and Lowell Day/Let Washington Sleep

LET WASHINGTON SLEEP.
M. S. PIKE.
Disturb not his slumber, let Washington sleep,
’Neath the boughs of the willow that over him weep;
His arm is unnerved, but his deeds remain bright.
As the stars in the dark vaulted heavens at night.
Oh! wake not the hero, his battles are o’er.
Let him rest undisturbed on Potomac’s fair shore;
On the river’s green border with rich flowers dressed,
With the hearts he loved fondly, let Washington rest.
Awake not his slumbers, tread lightly around;
’Tis the grave of a freeman,—’tis liberty’s mound;
Thy name is immortal—our freedom it won—
Brave sire of Columbia, our own Washington.
Oh! wake not the hero, his battles are o’er,
Let him rest, calmly rest, on his dear native shore;
While the stars and the stripes of our country shall wave
O’er the land that can boast of a Washington’s grave.
# Suggestive programs for special day exercises/Washington and Lowell Day/Mount Vernon Bells

MOUNT VERNON BELLS.
[Air:—Massa ’s in de Cold, Cold Ground.]
(From Song Knapsack.)
Where Potomac’s stream is flowing,
Virginia’s border through;
Where the white-sailed ships are going,
Sailing to the ocean blue;
Hushed the sound of mirth and singing—
Silent every one— While the solemn bells are ringing
By the tomb of Washington.
Chorus:—Tolling and knelling.
With a sad, sweet sound;
O’er the waves the tones are swelling.
By Mount Vernon’s sacred ground.
Long ago the warrior slumbered’
Our country’s father slept;
Long among the angels numbered—
They the hero-soul have kept.
But the children’s children love him
And his name revere;
So, where willows wave above him,
Sweetly, still, his knell, you hear.   Sail, Oh ships, across the billows,
And bear the story far,
How he sleeps beneath the willows,— “ First in peace and first in war.”
Tell, while sweet adieus are swelling,
Till you come again.
He within the hearts is dwelling
Of his loving countrymen.

THE NUT PARTY.
[Enter six children with decorated plate of nuts.]
Chestnut—
 Old Mistress Chestnut once lived in a burr,
 Padded and lined with the softest of fur;
 Jack Frost split it wide with his keen silver knife,
 And tumbled her out at the risk of her life.
Walnut—
 Here is Sir Walnut, he's English, you know,
 A friend of my Lady and Lord So-and-So.
 Whenever you ask old Sir Walnut to dinner.
 Be sure and make much of the gouty old sinner.
Peanut—
 Little Miss Peanut, from North Carolina,
 She's not 'ristocratic,' but no one is finer.
 Sometimes she's roasted and burnt to a cinder.
 In Georgia they call her Miss Goober or Pinder.
Hazelnut—
 Little Miss Hazelnut, in her best bonnet.
 Is lovely enough to put in a sonnet;
 And young Mr. Filbert has journeyed from Kent
 To ask her to marry him soon after Lent.
Hickory—
 This is old Hickory. Look at him well!
 A general was named for him, so I've heard tell.
 Take care how you hit him, he sometimes hits back,
 This stolid old chap is a hard nut to crack.
Butternut—
 Old Mr. Butternut, just from Brazil,
 Is rugged and rough as the side of a hill.
 But like many a countenance quite as ill-favored.
 He covers a kernel deliciously flavored.
All—
 Now, dearest schoolmates, I'm sure we have told
 All the queer rhymes that nut-shell can hold.

THE PUMPKIN.
J. G. WHITTIER.
(On receipt of a pumpkin pie.)
Ah! on Thanksgiving Day when from east and from west,
From north and from south come the pilgrim and guest,
When the gray-haired New Englander sees round his board
The old broken links of affection restored.
When the care-wearied man seeks his mother once more,
And the worn matron smiles where the girl smiled before,— What moistens the lip and brightens the eye.
What calls back the past, like the rich pumpkin pie?
Oh, fruit loved of boyhood! the old days recalling.
When wood-grapes were purpling and brown nuts were falling;
When wild, ugly faces we carved in its skin,
Glaring out through the dark with a candle within;
When we laughed round the corn heap, with hearts all in tune
Our chair a broad pumpkin, our lantern the moon,—
Telling tales of the fairy who traveled like steam.
In a pumpkin-shell coach, with two rats for her team.
Then thanks for thy present; none sweeter or better
E'er smoked from an oven or circled a .platter.
Fairer hands never wrought at a pastry more fine,
Brighter eyes never watched o'er its baking than thine.
And the prayer which my mouth is too full to express.
Swells my heart that thy shadow may never be less,
That the days of thy lot may be lengthened below.
And the fame of thy worth like a pumpkin vine grow,
And thy life be as sweet and its last sunset sky
Golden tinted and fair as thy own pumpkin pie!
# Suggestive programs for special day exercises/Washington and Lowell Day/Glorious Roll of the American Drum

THE GLORIOUS ROLL OF THE AMERICAN DRUM.
The glorious roll of the American drum Proclaimed to the world that Freedom had come. And first brought the gleam of Liberty's ray To drive the dark clouds of oppression away. 'Twas then, for the first, a drum for freedom had rolled,— No wonder its rattle had a new valor told! 'Twas equal rights speaking with invincible voice, And bidding earth's millions in a new hope rejoice. The eagle-eyed drummer was steel-nerved in his arm. Inspiring the heroes to defy war's alarm; The valorous son, with eyes spell-bound on his sire. His strokes re-inforcing, reproducing his fire; Both joining the fifer, with blood staining his brow. True liberty sounding—the American vow. While thickly around it clouds of battle smoke curled. Aloft in its beauty was Old Glory unfurled. As head of the column with fixed bayonets appears. The wounded and dying lifted proud voice in cheers. The spirit our fathers—led by George Washington— Displayed for our banner, thrills to-day every one; To God and our Country heads and hearts we will give, For one country, one language, and one flag to live.
(The conclusion of this recitation could be made very effective by an adaptation of the flag salute, the entire school joining in last two lines.)
# Suggestive programs for special day exercises/Washington and Lowell Day/Epitaph on Washington

AN EPITAPH ON WASHINGTON.
The defender of his country,—the founder of liberty,
The friend of man.
History and tradition are explored in vain
For a parallel to his character.
In the annals of modern greatness
He stands alone.
And the noblest names of Antiquity
Lose their luster in his presence.
Born the benefactor of mankind,
He united all the greatness necessary
To an illustrious career.
Nature made him great,
He made himself virtuous.
Called by his Country to the defense of her Liberties,
He triumphantly vindicated the rights of humanity.
And, on the pillars of National Independence,
Laid the foundation of a great Republic.
Twice invested with Supreme Magistracy
By the unanimous vote of a free people.
He surpassed, in the Cabinet,
The glories of the field.
And, voluntarily resigning the scepter and the sword.
Retired to the shades of private life;
A spectacle so new, and so sublime.
Was contemplated with profoundest admiration;
And the name of Washington,
Adding new luster to humanity.
Resounded to the remotest regions of the earth.
Magnanimous in youth.
Glorious through life,
Great in death;
His highest ambition,—the happiness of mankind,
His noblest victory,—the conquest of himself.
Bequeathing to posterity the inheritance of his fame.
And building his monument in the hearts of his countrymen,
He lived— the ornament of the Eighteenth Century;
He died, regretted by a mourning world.

 For strength that grew beneath the cross,
 For gold refined and freed from dross.
We thank thee, Lord.
Second pupil—
 For cheerful ease and calm content.
 For hours in gentle gladness spent,
 So sweet we ask not how they went,
We thank thee, Lord.

We thank thee. Lord.

 And oh! for mercies numberless.
 For succor in our soul's distress
 In perils we but dimly guess.
We thank thee. Lord.
The five together—
 We have no words and little wit
 To frame such thanks as may befit
 Thy grace, and yet—thou knowest it—
We thank thee, Lord.
As children, sometimes sudden
 Run, grateful to a father's knee—
 We dimly feel our debt to thee,
And thank thee, Lord.

# St. Nicholas/Volume 40/Number 5/Nature and Science/Constellations

Two March Constellations
The stars near it form the square of Pegasus, which you will see standing up on one corner, with one side nearly pointing at Venus. Pegasus is the winged horse, the square is its body, and the triangle of stars forms its head.
The star at the northwest corner of the square is the same as that in the forehead of Andromeda, the adjoining constellation. Andromeda, you remember, was, in Grecian mythology, the maiden who was chained to a rock and was threatened by a terrible monster. She was rescued by Perseus, who turned the monster into stone by showing him the Gorgon’s head. The faint stars branching off from the middle bright one form her girdle. Close to the one under her right arm is a hazy spot of light which is known as the great nebula in Andromeda. It is one of the finest nebule in the heavens, as we can see from the photograph reproduced on the next page.—Caroline E. Furness, Vassar College Observatory.
