BY Bort0n Braloy.
School time again, and we've got to be learning
History, grammar and reading once more,
Playdays are over and fall is returning
Now we must study the same as before;
Nobody monkeys around by the river,
"Tisn't much fun to be out in the woods,
Swimming holes cold and a plunge makes you shiver
Baseball is finished and footballs the goods.
School time again and our loafing is over,
Dig up your books from their place on the shelf,
Got to quit being a regular rover,
Got to go back to improving YOURSELF"
Wash up your hands and be neat as a model,
Don't you be tardy, but bark to the bell;
Now is the time to be using your noddle
Learning the right way to figure and spell.
School time again and we're moaning and mumbling,
Wishing vacation would never be through,
Still, if it wasn't, you'd hear us all grumbling,
Kicking and longing for something to do;
School time again-since our parents have planned it
Reckon it's up to us-lassie and lad;
School time again-well, / guess we can stand it,
Honest and truly-it isn't so bad!
1.-THE height OF fashion" is . phrase -
OF which the meaning seems to be, Wt
Not very far above the waist az
And Just q bit below the knee. r.

This girl was once q pretty, smiling, promising

UNCLE TED7S
CIRCLE

My Dear Club Members:
I know now that I make a mistake when / asked you to write
about your teachers this week. OF course l have received many
essays, but most of the club members we're afraid to write anything
for the Circle about their teachers, thinking that it might make the
teachers feel badly. I don't blame you at all, and l will not make
the subject Sc difficult next time.
Tomorrow I will give the prize winner and some of the essays.
I will also give you a list of my Eeutenants, and as many names Of
new members as l have space for.
And next week there will be some articles for the girls. The
boys had their fun this week learning how to make a moving pic
ture machine, but 1 Just know it did not interest the girls, and we
will have something just for girls next week. Memberships are
coming in fine. Keep up the good work. and we will have several
hundred members before the end of winter. Yours friend,
UNCLE TED.
