The fire first attracted the attention
of Miss Birdie Kershon, one of the
students, who lives at 30 Alameda

her glance was caught by bright
1lickerlng light letting from the win

Ethel McCrae, TO the window and

The boys ran over to the building,
made the startling discovery that It
was on fire, and Scally rushed down

fed the fire department by telephone.

the performance at the Theater by the
University Dramatic club but as soon
as they heard Of the fire they FASTENED

seriously hurt The result OF the res

When winds and birds all sing in tune:
When IN the meadows swaru the bees
And hum their drowsy melodies:

Dear to the pilgrim butterflies.

OF shadow brief. of sunshine long:
All things on earth owe you the best,
The bird who carols near his nest;
The wind that wakes and. signing. blows

And bee who sounds his muffled horn
To celebrate the oewy morn:
