Your voice is in the thrush's call.
1t is your gestures gentle grace
With which the twilight draws it's
pail
Across tho dead days ashen face.
You arc the dusk that valleys fills;
The dark tranquility of the hills.
Renascent dawn your wonder sings
And have seen your light feet pass
Across the field when upward
springs
The dew-emancipated grass.
You are the young sky, clear and
kind;
The cool ablution Of the wind.
The noontide's splendor mimics you,
And I who seek for you in vain
Have heard your laughter thrilling
through
The sober threnodics of rain.

How weak rcsesnblances may be.

COVE COMMENTS
&c. A. Renouf)

The old year out and the new
year in was observed by numer-
GUS folks in various ways. Many
automobiles rolled across the Dor
der to Vancouver where the cup
that cheers flows freely, while
others sought the cabarets and
kindred places in Seattle. Others
contemplated the things of the
past with hopes of the future in
quiet seclusion of their respective
churches.
The Cove community folks
chose to celebrate the event with a
dance each to their taste. Mr.. and
wise each to their taste. Mr.. and
Mrs. Covington and Mr.. and Mrs.
Park are to be congratulated on
their successful handling of a
very enjoyable occasion partici-
pated in by many friends. Messrs
Smith and Steen furnished the
compelling melody with the piano
and violin. Mrs. Crosier having
kindly loaned the piano for the
occasion. Mr.. Woodman also fav-
ored us with a lively waltz on the
violin and also called for a quad

All seemed to enjoy the dance
including the non-dancers who
were kept BUSY watching the var

the dancers. Dancing is not what
it used to be, surely not, neither
are most things for a matter of
that. It's a case of going for
ward or being left behind. For
one thing it's lots easier and
not so firing though. Some of
the old time dancers were very
graceful and their passing is to
be regretted.

The tree celebration Christmas
night in Community hall was one
full of happiness and good cheer.
The scheme placing all the names
in hat and each one drawing
out name to make present,
the cost not to exceed 25 cents,
was source of much real pleas

inexpensive gift gladdens the
heart. Mr.. Parks as Santa Claus
