In the summer when we're melting,
And can't get our breath at ALL
Through sleepless nights and feyerisf
days
We're painting for the fall
When autumn comes, so dreary,
We converse of winter bright,
With its opera and its bathrooms
And its incandescent light.
But in the depths of winter,
How the cold does make us sting!
And we SILVER as we chatter
Of the blessings of the spring,
Then spring arrives with violets,
Sweet birds, and grip, and rhyme,
And we shuttle through our noses
For the happy summer timel
Nothing startles girl so much as
to be kissed by middle-aged man ex-
repf not to be BIZ young one.

in this war. No prisoners will be

glers are the progeny Of the mos
quitoes in an immature stage. The
State Board of Health is working in
conjunction with the various local
boards TO decrease as much as pos
sible the multiplication of the buzzing
pests propagated in the marshes,
meadows and swamps The State

in killing off the wigglers. which de-
