lean skeleton in black cowl, with

emaciated woman's form, with hol-
low eyes and sGnken cheeks. One is

Famine who creeps, stealthily, like a
gray shadow. through the loosely
swinging cottage door. And the
death that comes with Famine is
neither swift nor merciful. 1t is a

THE LAST ROBIN

Clinton Herald: Somebody has
been singing the praises of the last
robin to linger with US to the end OF
the year. The occasion, or the robin,
seems worth celebrating. Autumn
is a brief period. Before we know it
the birds are gone, the flowers frozen,
and even the leaves dry and the tre es
barren. And the funniest thing about
it, or about US. is that just as the
year drifts into the frost or winter
we begin to realize it's passing charms.
And so We like to discover a CHEEKY,
brown winged robin, just as red
breasted as he was in April-strut-
ting across the lawn or teetering on
ali elm bough. He seems like little
postscript of summer. We stop and
pay some attention TO him. We list
en- to his song and remark that there
is robin and we turn up our coat
collars and wonder how soon he will
probably desert u.s. 1t is the way of
to prize most what there is
least of. In June or August, or even
September, there are robins galore.
They nest in our back yards or warble
at our windows, and we are hardly
aware Of their presence. But along
in November . robin is q novelty, !,
and SO we appreciate him. The last.
robin. like the 6rst robin. gains our
sentimental approval.
