and,as we darted orr down the cur r,S"t. Sur wSoops of joy reverberated along the bankS. '. waS June-ume morning in Already. Swahows darted hither and thither across oul watery path and raucous klngfisher seolded in aerial measures as he shrieked his native war cry.
 On and on we foated through an Eden of silver and green. by birds that caroled. where gnarled oaks did their vig.is on the sentried shore and where the willows, yellow and red, laved their plumes in the singing stream!
 At noon We paused beneath spread ing basswood tree and ate rayenously of the food that mother made. Appe- l ,ites? Ravenous, The starved wolf could have no more Digestion? As perfect as the main spring of costly watch,
 And then on again to where the banks were high and the woodland | spread its cooling shade in phantasy | across the puls!ng waters. Christo- ! pheT Columbus could have felt no | greater jcys of discovery than those l MllltH slit6Atu DtllleS anu exhaust in splitting yells of victory. ] How the forest rang with our shouts. and the squirrel chattcTed his def snce. Turtles slipped hurriedly on | their s-unine logs and splashed into the rippling stream, Sinners dsrted here and there in wanton fright at the | invasion,
 "Lookce, Lookee, Here's chabs e. bait"
 Then up the steep bank we toiled | and tugge1. with many grunt and brag of prowess. And at last we stood | within our wonderland, beneath the | towering elms. beside the haw trees and the scrazgly cherry. Like beavers we fell 10 driving stakes. In an hour our tent was up, our fire lighted and | our duties allotted.
 That night under the trees in the | glow Of the fire we told our boy ish stories of adventure and delight. stories of brave knights and beautiful ladies And as we listened:
 Zach heart recalled 2 different name
 But all sang Annie Laarie.''
 And then someone told ghost story. Imperceptibly. almost. we drcw closer about the fire and only the bravest went into he darkness for more faggots.
 Above us stars were glinting like tapers against a background of softest velvet. and through the trees gentle breezes soughed their drowsy mono tones. One by one we stole in to bed but not 10 sleep.
 An, the tricks we played and the D!.- low fights we had that night' At the oncoming of Aurora's car we arose without the mother call. slipyed the path to the fishing hole. By break fast time we had fresh fish from the great market of Nature How we
 fussed and blew about the breakfast fire. wiping the soot from our faces
 and the tears from our eyes. Chatter ing we fell to the meal with lusty rel
 lsh.
 But why dwell upon the picture?
 Throughout the days and nights that
 followed, we did what you would have I done in the golden days of long ago!
 We knew no care. and ambition was
 but merely fecking us with it's whip
 There in the shade and the sunlight ws turned the wheel Of pleasure
 through the neeting hours of gladness turned 1t until mothers beans and
 mothers bread were gone to the fast bean and the last slice. Butterflies upon . blossom-sceuted zephyr. we waited gaiiy through vale of glory II And then the wagon came, and the , men loaded our boats and our tent, our empty dishes and our fshpoles-and |, brought me back ts this, back to the coxging wheels and the presses hum l ming, back to the goad and the filth i, and the aspirations of life in their un
 folding. Willingly I take up the duty
 a a man should take it up. but eTeI
 and anon my heart yearns for! the old scow and the carefree days O. yss I.terday.
 Just Because.
 Live today's troubles today, got to | raorrow's troubles today!
