source of wonder to the mind. For instance, in the spring the flowers bloomed and everyone enjoyed their beauty and fragrance, but alas these beauties did not continue indefinitely. for with the coming of fall the flowers withered and decayed. and sometimes even in the heat of the summer the beautiful plant life was withered and scorched by the hot sun. while still in it's youth.
 These occurrences set the people wondering ana finally, being unable to explain the phenomena this story was conceived which accounted to theft mind for the conditions of nature:
 Apollo, the sun god, was strong and powerful. When he appeared in the heavens, the lesser gods, the moon and the stars dispersed in fright. and he outshone all the others. Now, Apollo took it upon himself to pro- tect all youth, especially when en- gagged in athletic contests or warfare, and so 1t happened that Apollo was present at the athletic fete when young Hyacinthus was entered in the disc throwing contest. Hyacinthus was a beautiful lad, and was beloved by all who saw him. Apollo loved him with @ fatherly devotion, Zephy- rus, the wind god also loved him and in his heart famed Jeaiously for the love that Apollo bore the boy. Zephy-

 But Kathy didn't have that much confidence In her sister and preferred to skin down. The animal began looking calmly at Frances.

 "Go and race like mad for the big tree by the fence!" called Kathy. T can run faster than you. Go on, now, quick"
 Frances hated to leave her sister, but Kathy could run faster, so she left. Kathy wasn't slow to follow and she soon reached the tree.
 well, I never!" she exclaimed looking all around. Frances isn't here! I bet she's run home!"
 Frances, however. hadn't run home at all although she would have been a sort of panic, and instead of run hing to the big tree, as she intended, she ran in circle. the way people do In the woods when they lose their heads.

Had Apollo accidently killed the boy whom he loved or had Zephyrus in a jealous rage hurled back the disc that Apollo had aimed So truly and had 1t struck the head of Hyacinthus? Whatever the cause, Hyacinthus was dead and where he fell sprang up beautiful flower that beans his name, and each year the people of the earth celebrated the festival of Hyacinthus. It began in sorrow and ended In joy. sorrow for the death of the young boy joy in the confidence of his return to earth in- spired by the blooming of the flower. And this legend explained to the mind of the people long ago that the youth typifying vegetation. (and the disc the sun of Apollo) was stricken down by the scorching heat only to return with the rebirth of the flower at the change of the season.
