OctOber's Bright Blue Weather

% suns and skies and clouds of June,
And flowers of June together,
Ye cannot rival for one hour
October's bright blue weather.
When loud the bumble-bee makes
haste
Belated, thriftless vagrant,
And golden-rod is dying fast,
And lanes with grapes are fragrant;
When gentians roll their fringes tight
To save them from the morning,
And chestnuts fall from satin burrS
Without a sound of warning;
When on the ground ripe apples lie
In piles like jewels shining;
And redder still on old stone walls
Are leaves of woodbine twining;
When all the lovely wayside things
Their white-winged seeds are SOW
ing,
And in the fields still green and fair,
Late aftermath are growing;
When springs run low, and on the
DfOOkS,
In idle golden freighting,
Bright leaves sing noiseless in the
hush
Of woods, for winter waiting;
When comrades seek sweet country
haunts,
By twos and twos together,
And count like misers hour by hour,
October's bright blue weather.
o suns and skies and flowers of June,
Count all your boasts together,
Love loveth best of all the year
October's bright blue weather.

HELEN HUNT

Helen Hunt Jackson was born at
Amherst, Mass, October 18, 1881. Her
father was a minister and author and
later a professor in Amherst college.
Her mother was a bright, sweet-tem-
pered woman
Helen inherited her sweet tempera-
ment from her mother and her intel
lectuality from her father. She was
vivacious and sometimes wllful. She
tells a story of herself in a paper en-
titled, "The Naughtiest Day of My
Life"
Helen and a little friend were al
lowed to go to the woods for some
berries. The woods were SO fresh and
beautiful that the children thought it
would be pleasant to spend the day
there. After wandering about for a
long time they became hungry and
stopped at a house to ask for some
food. The kind gave them
each a bowl of bread and milk, but
as she was going away and wanted
to lock up her house, she told the chill
dren to leave their bowls under some
lilac bushes.
When the children found that their
feet were wet they stopped again at
a strangers house to dry their shoes.
1t was here that they were found.
They had wandered until they were
four miles away from home and all
the neighbors were out in search for
them.
At the end of this eventful day
Helen's mother wrote-"Helen walked
in at a quarter before ten o'clock at
night, as rosy and smiling as possible,
and saying in her brightest tone, 80,
mother, I've had a perfectly splendid
time!"
Helen's parents both died before she
was twelve years old and she was then
cared for by her grandfather.
She received her education at a
private school in New York city. This
bright, happy child grew into a beau
tiful woman, full of love and SYM
pathy for all whom she met.
Helen Hunt did not begin her liter
airy work early in life. She had de-
voted herself to her home and her
friends. When she was but thirty
four years of age she had lost her
husband and children. In her time of
trouble she went to her friend Thomas
w. Higginson. She was instructed by
him and he criticized her work. She
worked and studied hard. She wrote
a few poems, and her first prose work
appeared in the "Independent."
When she found that her writings
were successful she went to Germany
and to Italy to study and write. Later
she published a book entitled, "Bits Of
Travel" She also wrote novels, poems
and short stories.
Her life in Colorado led her to a
knowledge of the Indians and of their
treatment by the government. Her
sympathy was with the Indians and
she hoped her book entitled Ramona"
would do as much for them as "Uncle
Toms Cabin did for the slaves.
Mrs. Jackson's literary work will be
abiding, but her life, with its dark
shadow and bright sunlight, its deep
affections and sympathy with the OPP
pressed, will furnish a rich setting for
the gems of thought which she gave
to the world.
She died August II, 1885. Her
grave at Cheyenne Canon, Colorado
Springs, is a nation shrine for liter
airy tourists.
