A SONG OF THE FUTURE

Sail fast, sail fast,
Ark of my hopes. Ark of my dreams,
Swoop lordly Ger the drowned past
Fly glittering through the suns
strange beams.
Sail fast, sail fast,
Breaths of new buds from OF some
dying lea.
With news about the future scent the
sea,
My brain is beating like the heart Of
Haste,
I'll loose me a bird upon this present
waste;
Go, trembling song,
And stay not long; oh. stay not long:
Thou'rt only gray and sober dove
But thine eye is faith and thy wing IL

In the night after Mary had gone

asked Mary if she would like about

"Oh, yes" eagerly shouted Mary.
"AIl right" said the fairy. what

About an hour after this another

Mary said she would like very much
to have about a million Easter eggs
for tomorrow.

fairy, waving her wand
Mary soon heard her father ana
mother getting up and soon she heard
them trying to get out of the house,
and they could not get the door OPEN
When Mary went to the window she
saw Easter eggs piled up as high as
her window and all over the Whole
place.
Mary called TO her latIleI anu So. $50
''Oh, father, there are about million
Easter eggs out here"
Her father said, Yes. I know 1t, and
we cannot get out of the house"
Mary said, 1--WE can get out of my

"Oh, that is So" said her father; Il
never thought of that
II wish these Easter eggs were about
a million miles away from here" said
Mary No sooner had the words left
her lips than the eggs vanished.
All of a sudden Mary thought she
was falling and she woke up to find
she walked from the house to the barn
and fell off the barn onto haystaek.
She was fortunately unhurt and she
got up and walked back to bed.

dictionary. Mary was first to find it,
and read out loud. Listen, Jessie, this
is just what it says: "A thousand thou

it is written, 100000
"Why, that's the very same that is

"There!" said Mary "What a fine
start you have given me. 1 couldn't
think of anything to write on"
This is what she wrote:
bout A MILLION"
I'D like to see bout a million any
thing. I'm sure it would take long
time to count them all. Now, when I
came in this afternoon and called Carl
and told him that there were bout
million boys wanted him, there were
only five or six of them. And yester-
day, when the new girl from the east
asked me in school whether we had
bout a million in our own yard. did
not think much of what>I was saying,
1 am sure, because we have only seven
bushes in the yard
"And now 1 think that our teacher
