"when you waken, call me early, call
M early, mother dear,
For tomorrow is the happiest Of all the
glad new year;

happiest, merriest day!
For I'm to be queen Of the May, mama,
Pm to be queen Of the May"

ed among the flowers which blossomed
on the vines, which formed q delicious
shade to his veranda. But neither Eng
land, the South Of France, the north
shores Of the Mediterranean, or the
ocean-kissed beaches Of the CALIFORNIA;
offer more perfect weather than is given
us to enjoy on the shores Of u own
beautiful bay. The woods are fragrant
with the scent Of myriads Of wild flow-
ers. The songs Of birds thrill and en-
trance the soul. The dewberries shine
out from among their vines in tempting
deliciousness, and the waters Of the bay
are warm and refreshing. Organize Your
May parties and bring them to the
shores. Delightful sports there are be.
meath the pine and the wide-spreading
Magnolia aud oaks, where lunches may
be spread, and many III ideal, never-to-
bs-forgOtten day may be passed in sweet
communion with nature during her most
tempting season. Verify hath she robed
herself in her most bewitching vestal
garments to allure you away from the
busy cares Of life. Come, crOwn your
queen while the flowers are fresh and the
mir fans the bloom Of health to your
cheek.
