One of u sixth grade pupils wrote
the following:
SPRING TIME.
AS to school I went one morn
The sun shone nice and warm,
Now there was such a gentle breeze
The birds were singing in the trees;
Telling us, at is spring time, don't
you see."
The grass in the meadow began to
look green,
The water in the rbook was seen;
The air with music was ringing,
For US the birds were singing,
Telling US, cit is spring time, don't
you see"
We were happy as on we walked,
Others we met and with them talked;
The old church house we did see
And the birds around it flee;
Telling US, at is spring time don't
you see."
Now we could see our old school yard,
With all its lovely trees,
And the birds so merrily singing,
We are happy if you please;
AS at is spring time here you see.'
AS to thes chool house we were near
ing,
The clouds in the sky were gathering
And the school children were there,
More were coming from everywhere
To welcome the joyous spring time
"don't you see"

In memory of my dear son, DR..
Henry w. Shaffer, who died April l,

Doctor Henry W. Shaffer left US
just one year ago to day, he said, o,

then fly away and be at rest. Now he
has gone where all is love and happi-

over, he gave his dear life for others,
but oh. how we do miss his sweet
and loving smiles. A son so good and
kind, so true and faithful, one that
God alone can find; one year ago,
cut off from the earth in his useful
years, like the flowers that strew his
grave.
A precious one from us has gone
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
God in his wisdom has recalled
The boon his love had given,
Although the body moulders here,
The soul is safe In Heaven.
Strange mystery that he should so
often take by death, or otherwise, the
dearest. Strange hat he should hear
us say, us writhing in the dust. O,
Father any thing but this-but our
father answers not, and yet we have
to believe In our Heavenly Father,
perhaps of all trials to human faith,
this is the sorese; but thanks be to
God If he put into our hearts such
love towards him that ever while, he
