low Flowers" love dandellons,
and do believe I always shall-no
matter what anyone says"
"That's right" said Daddy. II am
glad to hear you say you like them.
1t shows you have excellent taste. For
they are pretty and bright. OF course,
we can't have dandelions alone, and
they do sometimes try to crowd out
the nice grass for the whole summer.
But there are always plenty we can
leave and enjoy.
"And as Nancy has found her first
little bunch Of dandelions Of the sea-
son, I think / shall have to tell you
a story of the dandelion's talk with the
crocus flowers, many years ago.
"Now, the crocus family were Of
several different colors. They were of
purple and blue and white, and some
were a very pale yellow.
"Uusually the dandelion took his
family wherever he wanted to, and
never waited for an invitation; but
this time, for some reason, he was shy.
Perhaps he had heard some people
say they did think dandelions were
ugly and they wished that dandeli-
ons never came up at all. But at any
rate, he was with his family beside a
little bed made in the lawn in which
were the different members Of the GRO
Gus family. a
"'Hello,' said the dandelion, as he
opened his eyes. 50
"sHello,' said the first crocus to
open his eyes and look at the world.
"sYou don't mind my family being
nelghbors of your family, do you?"
asked the dandeliOn.
Certainly not said the little GRO
Gus. I am glad to see you. Your
bright color keeps us cheered up. ]
never quite knew why we get up SO
soon. We always do, and then we al
ways have some cold weather after we
are here. It's very sad. Each year
we say that we will not get up SO soon.
And then we can't help ourselves
The breeze whispers us such wondrous
secrets about the world, and we can't
help peeping our heads forth to see
what is going on. Then the sur
comes out so fine and strong and he
just begs us to come out
"T don't mind the cold weather as
much as you do said the dandelion
though I suppose I don't take many
chances. I wait until think 1t Is nice
and warm before come out. But ne
one worries about me. They all worry
about you
81 suppose am more delicate,
said the crocus. That is why / like
having you here to cheer us up. Yor
are so bright and such wonderful
shade Of yellow. None Of my family
ever are of that COLOR
"'Oh, do you really like meT said
the dandelion. 1T makes me very
happy to hear you say so. Not many
like me, though my name is distin
guished. Especially the last. part Of
my name. 1t sounds pretty nice to bt
like lion in strength
"'That's right said the crocus
You must cheer up. You've been sat
