u The children as they sat around
n the dinner table and eagerly
y = begged for more-and more
stories. Tell Us another"
Now lots Of boys and girls have
uncles and cousins and brothers who
went 70 war. But not all those boys
and girls hear stories from the eN-
citing days overseas. because most OF
the soldiers don't like to talk more
than they have TO about those days.
But Ned's big brother was different
Perhaps because he had been such
long time getting home and the hard
part OF the war wasn't talked about
so much. For after the war ended,
John, that was Ned's big brothers
name, went to work over In France
and only a few days ago, much more
than two years after his friends and
mates had come home. did he come
back to the family circle.
And Of stories. he had plenty sad
and sober and funny. or so Il seemed.

This book did not meet with the
praise for which the young poet had
hoped so for the next two years he

however, shared the cold reception Of
the first volume and the young poet
was SO discouraged that for nine years
he could not find the heart 10 publish
his works for fear his own judgment
OF his poems which proclaimed them
good may have been false.
1t Is strange that these very verses
which the critics passed so coldly by
have since become the examples Of
the finest and most beautiful type OF
English verse. Tennyson's was a soul
stirred by music and his poems ex-
press the beauty and glamor and
mystery OF romance. The verses are
so lyrical many OF them almost sing

John. There was in the bottom OF

little instrument-round and hat with
a funny little top. And to this we're
attached wires running into The
