Let me sit beneath the naples with
humming bees Ger head.
Let me listen to the twittering Of the
swallows in the shed.
Let me hear the cattle lowing at the
closing OF the day:
Take me back, 0 Memory to this time

Let me listen to the gurgling Of the
waters. of the rills;
Let me hear the ring-dove calling in
the orchard for its mate;
Take me back, o Memory. to this hap
py youthful state.
Let me work again in meadows among
the new mown hay
AID hear the sky-lark singing her early
morning lay,
And fight the grabbed bumble-bee and
feel his sting once more.
And hunt the festive woodchuck as !
did in days Of yore.
Take me back. o Memory to those
early scenes Of life
And hide me from the busy world and
all its noisy strife;
Let me sit around the hearthstone and
think the thoughts Of youth,
And listen to the voices filled with
friendship, love and truth.

HURRAH FOR THE BOYS

On call OF the Mayor, a crafty
ing number of boys between the
ages of IL and IA responded as
volunteers to aid in cleaning up
the back alleys of the town, and
the results are pleasing. Premi-
ses requiring the personal atten-
tion of the owners were reported
to the Mayor and such owners
will be notified to get busy at once
in the cleaning business.
The training of citizens may be
begun early both to the advantage
of the community and those
in training. Boys taught to as
sumo responsibility and to have
regard for the general good, be-
come valuable citizens, and excess
energy thus flows in the channel
of usefulness instead of mischief.
Hurrah for the boys!

sAsHEs LINED WITH COLOR
Give Just the Right Touch Of Relief to
the Always Popular Black and
White Combination.

Women who like to be distinct from
their neighbors are returning to black
and white as an admirable combination
for street as we'll as house wear, and
one OF the bits of color that they al
low themselves is to line the sash.
This lining shows in the loose ends
more than anywhere else, but as the
sash is not drawn closely around the
body, it shows up attractively in fleet
ing glimpses at the side and in front.
One Of the exclusive methods OF
making a one-piece frock that rs to
have sash is to drop broad panel
of the material, finished with a heavier
fabric at the edges, from the shoulders
to knees. Across this goes the sash,
not at tbs waistline, but below the
hips, and the whole effect Is quite slim
and girlish.
The black satin model that is made
in this manner has its sash lined with
white satin and run through three
inch loop of the material In front, just
above the waistline. The sash drops
down from that to ten inches below
the waistline in the back and is not
spread out across the hips. but allow
ed to hang in careless folds.
When a black sash is lined with
kings blue or Vatican purple, the ef-
feet is good, although it does not have
the distinction of the white lining,
but after all that may be merely a
matter of personal opinion and many
women may prefer the touch Of bril-
Hancy.
In Paris they are lining these sashes
with striped Roman silk and Scotch
plaid, and this idea promises to be
brought out in thin cloth suits for au.
tumn, such as, for instance. a raven
blue gabardine one-piece frock with
sash Of self-colored satin lined with
dull red, blue and black plaid.
