Mr.. Collins avoided photographers
was an achievement that few would
like to initiate. He jumped from the

sidewalk, into the hall and opened
the door to the premier's residence.
and in so doing, he upset the pompous
butler dressed in brilliant livery.

looked too much like ordinary busi-

Spring

Now comes the end, my fel-
1ow-men, of winter, stern and
bitter; the spring is coming
once again, and merry birds will
twitter, and joy will permeate
each hen and COW and human
critter. The winter has been
mild and kind, no tempests
ragged severely, the elements all
seemed inclined to treat us fair,
or nearly; the frost king and his
frigid kind were kept in limits,
clearly. And so we have no kick
to make about the season going,
but oh, our buzzums fairly ache
to see the green things growing,
to skirmish with a spade or rake,
or do some fancy hoeing! The
winter makes us feel our years,
and fills our hearts with sorrow
and, though a balmy day ap-
pears, small comfort can we
borrow, lot we are always HlleQ
with fears of what may come to-
morrow. "The, northern sky
grows grim and gray" we sigh,
with grim foreboding, land
though the suns on deck today,
we have a fear corroding that
Boreas will come our way, his
tinhorn goods unloading" To
all such fears spring gives re-
lease, the fears that used to
bore US; we do not summon the
police when clouds assemble DER
us; spring fills our jaded souls
with peace and places hope be-
fore us. WALT MASON.
