DAME NATURES REcirE.

Take dozen little clouds
And patch OF blue;
Take a million raindrops.
AS many sunbeanls too.
Take host of violets,
A wandering little breeze,
And myraids OF little leaves,
Dancing on the trees
Then mix them we'll together
In the very quickest way.
Showers mid Sunshine, birds and now-

And you'll have an April day.

A Very busy Member.


Dear Editor,-1 guess you viii bo some
what surprised 10 hear from me again. as
l have not written in so long, but have
been SO busy that really have not had the
time. read IN last Sundays paper the
story sent by Ruth Cooke, and liked it very
much, ana so thought / would spnd the
poem relating the incident about which her
story Is written Tho poem is as follows:
The Scho6lhotsc.
Stil sits the schoolhouse by the road.
A ragged beggar summing:
Around IL still the stiiracs grow
And blackberry vines are running.
Within the masters desk is seen,
Deep Scared BY raps official;
The varying floor, tho battered seats,
Tho jack-khifo'B carved initial.
The charcoal frescoea on its wall.
Its doors worn sill, betraying
Tho feet that creeping slow to school,
Went GtorIning out to playing!
Long years ago the winters sun
Shuho over at ito setting:
Lit UP its western window panes
And low caves Icy frettlng.
1t touched the tangled golden curls,
FOR ono who stih,her stops delayed
When all the school wefo leaving.
For near her stood tho little boy,
Her childish favor singled.
His cap drawn low upon his face.
Where pride and shame were mingled.
PUSHING with restless foet the snow
To right and loft. he fingered
AS restesaiy her timid hands
Tho ue-checked apron fingered.
.'I'm sorry that I spclet tho word;
| hate to go above you.
Because-tho brown eyes lower fell
because you see ! love your
sui memory to a gray.haired man.
THAT sweet child face Is showing
Dear gil. the grasses on her sravo
Have forty years been growing!
Ho lives TO learn. In life's hard school,
How few who pass above him.
Lament their triumph and his loss.
Like her, because they love him.
certainly hope to sec this in print. as
have never been lucky or smartest enough
to get anything printed yet. Well, guess
had better close for this time. Yours truly,

HELEN.s DISCOVERY.

On a beautiful lawn In the suburbs
of a large city. little girl OF twelve
SINNERS WAS sitting under il large
elm tree. She seemed very sad, al
though from her appearance you would
think SHE was one Of the happlest lit
tie girls In the world.
She was a very pretty child, having
long golden curls and expressive brown
eyes. Her slender features were clad
in d pale blue dress.
She had been sitting in this recln-
Ing position for several minutes, re-
f1ectlng upon her past life Helen
was greatly attached to her father and
loved him above all others. Her step
mother hated her and Helen always de-
sired to be out OF her presence. Hell
ems father was going to take a trip to
Europe on account of his health and he
was not coming home until Christmas.
She had asked to be allowed to accom-
pany him, but was refused this privi-
lege.
Suddenly she saw something glitter
ing in the sun few PAGES away. Hell

place. Looking around She found a
beautiful gold coin. After picking up
the large piece of money she noticed
an opening and resolved she would find
out what 1t was
SHE went to the house. secured a
large spade and soon returned. With
thls instrument she dug for long time.
Finally she Struck something hard.
What could it be? 1t was a large iron
chest. She opened 1t and behold she
found 1t contained much gold and many
kinds OF currency, After revealing this
to her stepmothcr. she was noticed
more by her. This was only because
her undevoted stcpmotlier desired to
have lfclen's wealth.
