satisfactorily in the grammar school,
and it will be necessary to exhibit
some work done by the scholars,
Beginning tomorrow, we will devote
fifteen minutes each day to the study

press. and mount the flowers as we
study them. Then you will know
how to go to work. Your part will
be to gather, describe, press, and
mount ten wild flowers. The work
must be done individually. No help
from any one. You will have all

''Yes, yes. yes" answered the boys

wood from some meadowland. There
on the opposite side he spied some
purple flowers that he did not know
