BLOSSOMTIME'

Tis time for the drone Of the hum

And the soft winds laughing through
the trees:
rris time for Tho wedding bells to
swing.
'Tis time for the lover to buy the
ring;
'Tls the day Of the old sweet song

The beautiful sweet scented blossom

We hear the voice OF the turtle dove,
Nooing and cooing and calilng MS
And the merry voices OF children at
All t6rough ihe mellow sunshiny
They ali belong to the song and the

OF the beautiful sweet scented bios

We hear the frogs in the meadow
Base and treble a iubllant band;
The merry broOklets onward flow,
Dancing and babbling as they go.
They belong to the song and the
rhyme,
OF the beautiful sweet scented bios

The golden days come and the golden
And the ripened fruits on the boughs
swing low;
The flelds are yellow with ripening
There's a sadder note in the sweet
refrain:
A sadder note in the song and rhyme.
For passing are days OF the blossom
time.
Yes, as the golden moments go
Day by day we older grow;
The fruits are gathered. the boughs
are bare
And winter is on us unaware.
rTis the saddest note in the song and

But blessed are memories Of blossom

Midnight rally extended to 20.35c for
December ana 1850 for January, or
about - to 80 points above the early
low level Some trade buying was re-
ported, but sentiment was unsettled by
conflicting reports concerning the Brit

mcut Of another cut In the price OF one
of the leading brands OF cotton goods.
This was reflected In renewed selling
as soon rs the profit taking shorts sub
sided and the market later in the morn
ing was less active, with prices sagging
back to nearly the previous low point
No Improvement was reported In the
spot demand, but smaller volume
OF hedge selling was attributed to more
general holding by growers in the
South. and some trade buying was
reported on the decline.
