The summer wanderers are returning
fast. At 6rst they came but slowly,
and in small numbers, but nearly all
are here now.
One can tell them to a certainty by
their sun kissed cheeks and the JOY
that beams in their eyes.
Their gowns show marks Of travel,
and the sands of the sea shore and the
stones Of country roads have rubbed
their shoes The flowers in their hats
bloom with dimmed glory and the hues
OF their shirt waists have been toned
down by hot sun rays and water. But
It is a pure delight to watch the sum
mer wanderers. radiant as they are
with good health and spirits.
