The following are the tive best original COM

words.-Gcrtrude Wedenfeller
BY KENNETH \. SPERBECK, SIXTH GRADe.
There is no occupation i'll this busy life of ours
that gives forth any more pleasing results than
that of gardening. 1t shows the hounties that
God has bestowed on the whole human race,
through natures glorious verdure and fruitage.
Gardening is one OF life'S occupations that
gives healthful results 1t could be safely said
that there is no person in this university that
does not enjoy gardening | do not mean to say
that any man enjoys driving yoke Of oxen
through rocky soil with the hot sun beating its
hottest rays on your bare head, for this is some
thing quite contrary to pleasure. But a few
minutes in the garden each morning has a SINH
lar use to that of a life preserver.
1t is a very good thing to have children 5
garden club, as their play time can be devoted
to learning something useful we'll rs keeping
them away from undesirable places. 1t also
makes a child take an interest in life and makes
him glad and happy as the flowers,
BY MARGARET j. MANLEY, SMITH GRADE.
Gardening of both vegetables and flowers is u
very healthful occupation.
Gardening has to be done out of doors, there
fore the person that does this kind of work has
the advantages of fresh pure air, and the warm
suns rays.
Many times in Il city there are plots of ground
that are not being used and perhaps are the
only draw back to beauty on the street.
Flowers can be grown in such lots making a
great Improvement to the streets.
Working among flowers makes person sweet
tempered and gentle, always having happy
smile. just like ihe very flowers themselves.
Vegetable growing is a very profitable as we'll
as healthful labor.
Vegetables can be sold at the stores, for vege-
tables will always sell.
This shows that growing vegetables pays.
The muscles and brain are set working in
harmony together while gardening.
Many a childs cheeks are made plump and
rosy by gardening.
