Mrs. Sara +. Archer teacher in the
Washington school of Spokane. has been
awarded The Spokesman Review prize
for the best poem on the Spokane river.
Her poem follows:
o beautiful river sweep into the west
With the shadow of hemlock and fir on
thy breast:
With the CLINT of the green in thy cool,
crystal wave
Thou hast stolen from hills that thy swift
waters lave.
In the lake. hiil-encircled Thy rushing
rills meet;
Down. down from the heights come their
hurrying feet.
From the heart of the mountains thy
bright torrent drains;
Thy sources are deep in the dim Occur
d'Alenes.
Commissions volcanic thy stern bed have
made:
In basalt and granite thy couch has been
laid;
lis vesned with the onyx and 'broidered
with gold,
And into its gorges THY liquid life rolled.
High over thy head croons the sentinel
pine;
Deep into thy bosom the watchful stars
shine;
face,
And shivering stand in the breath of thy
race.
Columbia thunders; it's echoes invite:
Deep answers 10 deep in the cataract's
might.
Speed on to thy nuptials, exuiting in
pride,
And the peerless Spokane is Columbia
bride.
