vide the travelling case.
1t is most important, however, that
the Libraries now in circulation shall
be looked over and freshened mp.
Hence it is especially requested that
several federated clubs will each take
a collection TO overhaul and improve,
substituting new books for those
which are worn, checking and cor
recting the catalogue and sending out

This plan win obviate the triple haul

It's true, the Prince had had his ups and downs:
He of the pantaoons chalk face and grin SO wide
But mere before nursery lore had he been cast aside
Yet here he lay, plaything of an hour,
Thrown in the dust. Gone was his daily DOVER
OF chidrens laughter at his merry jests..
He who had used to be of all loved toys the best.
The Prince of Clowns lay broodng in the dust.
Thinking of children's ways Here must rust
Bitterly thought he, '4now that am Old
Broken in limb and heart. Sweet Marigold,
And little RedTop have for got their friend
Can this be love? Is this the bitter end,
Of days that have been filled with pranksh tricks
Of childrens play? When Marigold was six
And Red-Top turning eight, good Old st Nick,
Drew me from out his pack-Taught me to turn the
trick
Now Marigold is seven and Red Top nearly nine,
They've gone away school today, and am left pine
Ny pantaloons are torn my grin washed off, half gone
My leg is broke alack alas! and am left alone.
The Prince of Clowns lay brooding in the dust,
Left to his broken limb, to loneliness and rust
The Prince of Clowns, beside the Circus tent,
Was chuckling to himself in merr1nent
His chalk white face spread IN one wide grin,
And if [ tried couldn't halt begin
To tell the happiness of our Prince of Clowns
The Prince had surely had his ups and downs!
Wide was his smile his pantaloons wider still,
His legs were strong and straight and painted green
They looked as Young and spry as any in the land
His smile was new his pants were new, and pink was
each new hand.
The Prince of Clowns twas plain to had had

From top to toe,-Im very sure-for have had it

From Marigold and Rcd-Top. IT'S quite a clown ro-

And now Prince as good kick his heels

They found the nursery floor, broken and sad at
heart
They held family council and they took him all apart
They painted him and dressed him all in suit gay
And now Red-Top and Marigold are sending him away

And this is how treads he clown has dried up all his
