POETS CORNER,
"There's a Mother Old and Grav"


BY Lena ID. Shcptenko, in honor of
"Mothcr's Day." Sunday, May 10,
1929
There's a Mother old and gray,
Somewhere far, far away
Who is longing, waiting for you,
So why not write to her today?
There's mother old and gray,
Who loves to hear her loved one
Say
"Tll always be the same to you dear
Mother
Even though beauty leaves you day
by day."
'I'll always love you true, my Mother,
Though days may darkcn, sunshine
fade,
Because you brought sunshine into
my life,
And crushed the thorns of bitter
strife"
ooh, love you, my dearest Mother,
You, who taught me how to live and
learn,
How to be helpful, how to live true,
That is why I'll love you all life
through"
There's a Mother old and gray,
Who needs you always, who needs
you now
Time had brought deep burrows to
her brow,
But her silver head in grief must
never bow.
There's Mother old and gray,
Who longingly waits with open arms
For the wandering boy or the wan
dering girl,
Who returns to her upon this day.
The voices must blend, the bells must
ring,
With the old, old hymn of yore-
Telling the sweet st oryf of love SO
true, j fSSsjs
Singing, Sweetest flowers will always
{ bloom for you. M, #

.ADVENTUREOF

Ry Olive Barton Roberts

The Twins stood looking at the lit
tie fairy with eyes that nearly pop
ped out of their heads.
He had suddenly appeared from
nowhere at the edge of the forest
while they were looking down into a
hollow stump
cts the sooty smudges on your
noses that have given you the right
to come to qRagssy d.. Land he sal said
THAT stump is the =ehimney of one
of our, houses and the ground you
are standing on is the roof. Ragsy
Land is under the ground, same AS
Brownieland.
"Thank you for telling us about
everything" said Nancy politely.
"Are you Ragsy Lander?"
"Well, Tshould say SOL answered
the fairy. Cant you tell by my
clothes? All Ragsies wear, old rag
ged things. Would you like to go
down into Ragsy Land and meet some
of my friends? My name is Tatters,
Mister Tattcrs!"
"Oh, yes indeed" answered Nick.
But l have letter to post first.
Nancy, you wait here and I'll be
back in two minutes"
Away he went to the hickory-tree
postoffice and gave his letter to Mr..
Stamps, the little fairy postman.
While they were waiting, Nancy
started to wipe the smudge off her
nose with her hanky.
"No, DON'T" cried Tatters quickly.
"If you do, you cannot go to Ragsy
Land. Only people who have smudges
Of magic SCOT are allowed in. What
ever you do, won't wipe the smudge
off"
"All right answered Nancy. "I'll
tell Nick"
Just then Nick returned.
snow we're all ready to CO." said
Tatters. "Just come to the edge of
this moss roof and we'll climb down
this thick creeper vine. I'll go first
and you follow"
Soon they all stood on queer lit
tie street of queer little town.
Welcome to Ragsy Town in
Ragsy Land" said Tatters. an see

RED CROSS NOTES

Christmas Seals of the National
tuberculosis Association are already
on sale and the Cecil County Red
Cross Chapter stands squarely behind
this long established movement.
These Seals are symbols of a
nationwide effort to fight Tuber-
culosis, and the money obtained from
their sale is utilized for that purpose
alone.
If there be any virtue in slogans,
none can possibly be of more value to
a community than Health First" for
1t is fact that any movement which
improves the health of locality is
for the benefit of every citizen in
that locality,
When mailing your Christmas
packages, make them doubly attrac-
tive by placing thereon Christmas
Seals for in so doing, you not only
please the recipient, but you aid a
noble work than which there Is none
more important.

RESOLUTION ADOPTED BY THE

Whereas, The Secretary of the
Treasury of the United States will
PROPOSE to Congress about to as.

he buys are passed on to and paid by
him in the price of the commodities
and services bought.
Now be it Resolved, That the Ris-
ing Snu branch of the National Far
mers' Union request the, Honorable
w. Cabell Bruce and O. e. Weller.

SCHOOL NEWS

Many rumorss have been going
around in regard to the number OF
our grade teachers being reduced
from four to three. Many people
seem-to think that this is an indica-
tion of the fact that we won't get an
addition to our building. This is not
the case and we are as sure of getting
the addition as we were before this
incident. The state notified US that
we had too many teachers for the
number of pupils enrolled in the
grades. The state RECRUITMENT for
four teachers in the grades is an
average attendance of 120 pupils,
our average attendance has been
little less than 100. So you can
clearly see that this action on the
part of the State is justifiable, since
we clearly are not entitled to four
elementary school teachers. When
our average attendance meets with
the state requirement, then the
fourth teacher will Immediately be
sent to Rising Sun.

is continuing to grow, but there
should be more members than there
