Oh. it's very good to wander Tong
the happy primrose way,
When the dew is all a-sparkle at the
breaking of the day;
When the woods are full of melody
from tho silver-throated birds
And the feeling that comes stealing
is Just most too sweet for words,
Natures heart is just a-throbbipA
with the good red blood of life.
And a fellow likes to go forget the
worry and the strife;
Where the cool. deep stream is call
ing and the fishing there is fine;
Oh, the ozone in the atmosphere is
better far than wine,
Where the catbird calls challenge
to the sassy old blue jay;
And the squirrels go hop-slipping in
that careless, happy way;
oh, take me back and let me stray
where fondcst mem'ries cling
And let me swing to heaven in a

his face quickly after taking one look

that insisted upon starting from a pair
of brown eyes.
He isn't a bad boy" the sheriff
said, and the boys father corroborated
the statement He just couldn't re-
s1st the temptation to take money that
belonged to his employer. He never
will do it again.
The part of the proceeding that at
tracted bystanders was the kindly at
tltude taken by the father He did
not chide nor scold. He was ONLY sor-
~, and from the boys attitude. the
father was not nearly so sorry as the
son.
Don't use the boys name" eau
toned the sheriff to a reporter for
the State Journal who happened to be
hand. THE boy is going to be good.
and it would hurt him and his folks
to tell who he is
