A Song Of Spring.

When evry sidewalk is afloat:
When tulip bulbs are surging by;
When man is bound to use a boat.
If he would keep his waistband dry
When water is as free as air.
And slush is higher than ones knees;
When godly men with vigor swear,
And take for safety to the trees:
When whist clubs cannot meet. because
The female members cannot swim;
When at the cross walks women pause,
And scol0 because the path is dim;
When houses will not sell, although
All houses seem to be "for SAIL:
When postmen. padding very SLOW,
Deliver sletters in pail:
When hired girls refuse. to stay:
Excuse. me, Ma am, but I'm no eel:"
When Hope is drowned and floats away
All, then, how MOSTLY do We feel.

Many interesting stories are told oil
the late Rev. Charles F. Allen. espec-
tally regarding his happy way of deal
ing with naughty boys. One night
while he was at Orono some mischief
was done at the college and each boy
suspected firmly denied all knowledge
of the affair. The guilty youths were
congratulating themselves on escaping
detection. when DR.. Allen rose to lead
the chapel exercises the next morning
after the faculty meeting. Fixing his
eyes on the culprits he solemnly read.
Lying lips are an abomination to the
Lord, but they that deal truly are his
delight" The joy Of these young men
was turned to chagrin. No knife would
have cut deeper than these words.
They knew that DIR. Allen knew that
they mad lied to the faculty and what
was more it had been openly published
and they had been sOlemnly rebuked
by words from the Bible.
