GOOD HOPE TIMES


 The darting swallows soar and sing, And from the stately elms I hear The blue bird prophesying spring"
 Old mother earth is just awakening from her long winter sleep and stands on the threshold of spring, as if re- luetant to exchange her icy robes for the bright green apparel in which she Is most admired and loved by all her children.
 March is trying to live up to her rep" with the high and bowling winds.
