The President then turned to the little
girl and said:
"Go home, my child, and tell the father
of yours who could approve his country's
sentence, even when it took the life of n

Dame MaTgcry has lilac bush
That grows by her cottage door,
And there il has blossomed its purple flush
Full twenty-five years or more
For she says, and a quiver goes over her lip,
john planted il here, for me,
That morning, before he sailed in the ship
That never came home from sea"
To every boy and girl that goes
To school by the kind danes door,
She gives bunch Of the purple blows,
Till blossoming time is Ger.
She loves to have, and she loves to give.
And the good dame says, "You know
The WAY 70 keep, you'll see, if YOU live
Next spring, i to bestow.'
MS'am Allison lives across the street,
And her lilac tree grows high;
But away she drives the little feet
when they come her hlacs nigh
"Dame Margery's blooms will soon be gone,
she's foolish, seems to me;
III not be breaking my lilacs down
For every child" says she.
Spring came. Dame Margcry's bush was full
Of wonderful perfect bloom;
In royal purple beautiful,
And sweet with IT, fresh perfume.
Ma'am Allsou's tree had OF blooms not one
The last year, seeds were there;
Rut vain she watched till the May was gone,
orPurplc blossoms fair.
Dame Margery said, "Ah, don't You know
Ii last wears blossoms stay,
The next year. bud vii fail 20 grow
Till these are broken sway
For thi, YEAR lilSc- cannot live
With seeds OF las, years spring"
Na'am Allison learned tha, she must give,
II she would have, a thing.
