when suddenly the window dropped on
his neck and held him prisoner. His
friend John Thomas, who was travelling
with him, came to his aid and extricated
him from his perious position. He did
not come too for some time, but after
using all the water in the car he came
to know himself again, and made use OF a
certain te xt, a text Of his own, and as
Tom is a good natured fellow and an all
around good humored sport, it would
not do to print the howery words he de-
livered, to the amusement Of the passen-
gers on the train. He intends coming
back soon. and his friends advise him to
let sightseeing alone on his return trip.

Anticipating the vacation Joy;
From his little friends is called away.

Drapcd with tears of teachers dear,
And in our play there's sobs and tears.
We speak his name in a breathing sigh,
While his smile and cheer is ever nigh.
We extend our tears to the broken home,
Our tears with theirs are in the tomb.
Little Harold now is in n better class
Where eternal day embrace and kiss;
Heaven of heaven, sweet paradise.
Flowers, flowers, garlands and tears:
Dear Harold playmate, schoolmate dear,
Well think of thee in the coming years,
And never fail to speak thy praise.
While speaking of play and our school days.
