A man there is who talks about his work with gloomy sigths, He stops from time to time to wipe the moisture from his eyes. You get a notion that the major p@R- ton of his biz Is giving sad descriptions of how vssT hard it is. You wonder if by chance there is a time he can recall When he knew the feelings of a man who has no job at all. When you're husthng for the chance to make a gay and willing blum You haven't time to lecture your pathway long and rough; But when you're safely on the list for systema tic pay You find the leisure to put forth . meIa ncho oily lay.

The Wonderful Adventure of Nils.

A recent article in The Worlds Work says: Feeling the need of radical re- form in the public school system of education, the National Teachers asso- cia&ion of Sweden commissioned Miss LageIlof to write a, book which should er1bodg the geogra phy and natural his tory of the country, to be used as sup pier1entary reading ln the schools. Having been a teacher herself she ur- derStood children, and how best to attract and hold their interest After four years of study and research she fsmiha<i1ed herself with animal and bard life sought out hitherto uzlpuf1lish ed folklore and legends of different provinces These she ingeniouslv vdve together, giving her rich imag- inaion full play, ,ingeniously interweav- ing fact with fancy, and as a result produced The Wonderful Adventures of Nils Her style throughout is the simplest, the most facile for children to grasp. She knew how to combine the useful with the beautiful and has converted the absorption of knowledge into chllds game. a pleasure. No one who has retained a particle of his child mind can escape the genuine wttchery of the poesy in Nils Hol- gersons and no one can afford to lose an opportunity to hear this story beautifully illustrated told by Mrs Henry Nj.
