blooming as the rose,
There Is a group Of dark b.oxn frsekles
punched upon her cunning nose;
Hands that once were fair as lilies now
are sort of muckle dun,
And her neck is red and blistered from
the kisses of the sun.
o! She is charming picture as she
gracefully reclines
In the shadows where the breezes whis-
per to her through the pines
And in playful manner toy with the
rebellious truant curl h.
That is dangling o'er the forehead of
the mountain climbing girl.
How the echoes ring with music as
they catch her merry song,
And away o'er peak and chasm bear it
gleefully along,
How the wild birds pause to listen,
envy in their twinkling eyes,
AS her notes, like vocal jewels, in the
pure air fall and rise.
Now burst of ragtime Jingle, now
sacred melody,
Now con, song gay and lively, now
jolly college glee,
Now heart-inspired love ditty, every
note a tuneful pearl,
Ripple from the music fountain Of the
mountain climbing girl.
In the camp with dainty fingers
rounded arms to elbows bare
She will strip the red potatoes of their
clinging outerwear,
And will slice the fragrant bacon for
the pan that's waiting near
Where the campfires are licking at the
mountain atmosphere.
And her appetitel Ye, gastronomic
gods, but it's peach!
Never ceases its keen yearning while
there's anything in reach;
o! at eating time the piglet with its
cunning tail in curl
Sure would have fellow feeling for
the mountain climbing girl.
General Sherman Bells assertion
that Orchard is the biggest liar that

attempt to snatch, the lanrels from the
bold brows Of some of the editors liv-
ing within sight Of that historic hump
on the bosom Of the earth.
