WHEN THE COWS COME HOME
IN MAINE.
| CHngle, clangle, clingle,
| can hear the cow-bells ring;
| Cobos, cobos cobos
See the milking pals l bring
Sweeter than the music of operate

Is the music of the cow bells,
When I'm letting down the bars.
Now Bess, you stop your feeding;
Your milk I'm surely needing.
And | almost see the stars.
~Slowly now, they're coming,
Feeding up the lane
Brindle, Bess, and Annie
[ can see their faces, plain.
And Daisy. now, is calling
To her offspring in the barn:
Don't worry, dear, I'm coming,
Walking fast--Tm almost running;
No need of such alarm"
In the twilight all are yarded;
[ can hear the rich milk stream;
Calves mouths with milk o'erflow-
ing
What a picture in my dream
Clingle, clangle. clingle,
[ can hear the cowbells ring,
Far down the lane of yesterday
What memories they bring!
Those days are far behind me,
They can ne'er come back again
Those happy days of boyhood,
Upon a farm in Maine.

The attention that is being given
to development in agriculture by the

orally, should help reclaim the 'aban-
doned farms" which it is claimed are

The leaven is working, and as it has
begun to work with the younger gen
Grafton, there is the better prospect
of good results.
While many are deploring the
slack condition of society, they

which are near to natures heart
and cannot fail to be broadened in
their thought and usefulness as they
watch the development of their plans
and experiments.

French Journal of Education is head
ed "How to Rest" l quote:
ITO do something else is not the way
to rest. Real rest is actual repose,
physical and mental. Rest means
withdrawal from all that can stimulate
the mind and attract the attention.
To know how to rest! 1t must be
very difficult, if we are to judge from
certain restless souls-the hurrying
men of affairs, the athletes, feverish
with desire for glory, the intellectuals
who kill themselves in it's pursuit
Rest is the period during which our
cells are recharged with energy. If
we knew how to alternate wisely the
periods of work and repose, we should
be capable of a greater total ex-
penditure. This is why it may be
justly said that the art of life is the
art of resting.
