The Vacant Desks.
Io,incinpati Time Star.

What sadder aftermath could
there have been to any tragedy
than that of the reopening of the
schools after the Boyertown disas.
ter2 The class rooms had been
closed since that misfortune robbed
the little town of all its sunshine.
Hardly home but that had lost
some golden-haired Bo Peep oil
some Little Boy Blue.
On Monday, however, the schoo
bell rang as usual, aud the chill
dren, with their books and states
under their arms, marched off
sadly to school. The place seem
ed strangely deserted, No laugh
ter rang through the Railways.
One talked in whispers, and it
seemed as if half the pupils must
have been been Excused"
The full realizati Of the mean
ing of the tragedy must have been
Impressed upon the little ones as
they took their accustomed places,
and the teacher began calling the
roll. Many of the little desks were
vecant, for their former occupants
would never return to complete
their lessons. They had learned
the one great iesson the lesson of
death, which even wise men do
not know.
In their places (it is pleasant to
imagine) there were flowers--
pansies ''freaked with jet" or
lilies of the valley, pure as the
thoughts of the little pupils who
once had been there. The roll
call must have been interrupted
by sobs, there were so many who
did not-and could not-answer
to their names. There were no
joyous groups at recess, Play
was ont of the question, and with
heavy hearts, probably, the chill
dren returned early to their for
lorn homes.
Outside the gfeund was covered
with white blanket of snow, and
the snow failies, we have no
doubt, had strewn the little graves
with the light fakes as tenderly
as ever the birds covered with
leaves the soft forms of the babes
in the woods. Sleep quietly, you
little flowers, and let no troubles
disturb your slumbers. May the
hreflles and the will-o'- the wisp
Light your little beds by night,
and the Robin Redbreast sing to
you on summer days. And may
tender yiolets and all manner Of
sweet flowers spring up there to
be your companions.
In the big world you have left,
'the stately ships go on" The
school bell rings, and the drone of
the school room continues. It's a
bitter lesson that has been learned,
but there are pleasanter days soon
TO come. The book of life is a
big one for such little hands, and
if one fails to understand, so much
the better. Tomorrow, to fresh
