SPRING

SPRING
Winter is past
With its chilling winds
And cutting blasts.
And spring that awakens all nature
Is here at last.
The rain with its gentle patter
On the cold hard earth fall
And the flowers all respond
To its insisteut call
The grass shoots up its
Tiny blades a if in fear
That old Jack Frost might
Be lurking near.
But the sun assists the
Rain with its warmth and cheer
And the flowers in woods
And fields and door yard appear
And then We know that spring is here.
The birds come back from
The Sout where they go
To spend the winter as
You all know.
And they sing and mate
And build their nest
Then the mother bird on
Her eggs does rest
While the father bird watches
That naught her befall
And God up in heaven
Watches over all.
And then we know by
Sounds in the air
BY the birds, the flowers
And beauties rare,
That God is good
And Spring is here.

Not In spite of, but arising out Of

In n recent statement Colt en-
presses his Views: Evidence is not
wanting that the automobile will play
an importat part In solving the trana-
portation problem. This is indicated
In the fact that manufacturers are
urging owners to cooperate IN the
