LILACS - Pauline Day

The sweet aroma of lilacs drifts languldly
about the high school. Apparently the. summer
dsys are here. There are lilacs everywhere. LII
hes in vases. llacs in chairs. lilacs on clothes.
The flowers seem to add to the lazy atm0s-
,here Of the school building. In some rooms the
pupils sniff dreamily at the sweet fragrance OF
he lilacs, while others gaze idly out upon the
shining sun and let their minds wander to dis
tant climes. We wonder if lilacs affect other
persons as they affect the school pupils!
