&C. we are nearer spring than we
were in Steptember-Sangt the little
bird in December. and here we are
a whole month nearer-the jonquils
in my garden are showing at least
two inches Of lovely green. A friend
said the other day, in reply to some
one Tho refused to look on the sun
shine of today, but moaned over the
prospects of possible uncomforta
BILE February; "Why worry? Each
day means one day less of winter
and one day nearer spring" That
was real philosophy. Let us, here IL

comes.
Cordially,
AUNT JULIA.

A Toast to the Flag

Here's to the red Of it
There's not a thread of 1t.
No, nor a shred of it
From foot to head.
But heroes bled for it,
Faced steel and lead for 1t,
Precious blood shed for it,
Bathing it red.
Here's to the white Of it
Thrilled by the sight of it,
Who knows the right of 1t,
But feels the might of it
Through day and night?
Womanhood's care for it
Made manhood dare for it;
Purity's prayer for it
Keeps it SO white.
Here's to the blue Of it
Heavenly view of it,
Star-spangled hue of it,
Honesty's due of it,
Constant and true.
Here's to the whole of it,
Stars, stripes and pole of it,
Here's to the whole of it.
Red, White. and Blue.

Dear Children: Have you noticed
that our editor is giving us space
every now and then in the mid

When I showed him letters bear
ing dates weeks and sometimes
even months back, and told hin
that so many of the letters We're
lust. too good to discard and that
I was just keeping them and slip
ping them in along with the late
ones, he very generously decided
that we should have bigger type
for setting our letters and more
letters in each week.
DO you think 1 was happy &c
hear this good news? You and
have been chums for a good many
years and you must know by this
time how anything that adds tc
your pleasure adds to my happl
ness. Show your appreciation bJ

Der the first two letters in the
Tuesday issue means that the
writer's of those letters are asked
for their pictures for the album.
