Admiration of April:
April is the month when
spring experiences growing
pains. The earth, devoid of
life, opens wide its arms TO
receive the welcome rain. Gen.
tie breezes earess each tender
bud, and birds pour forth
their notes in praise of these
beautiful changes. April is the
month of mirscIes-miracIes
so familiar that no one notices
them. Yet, the ground, so re-
Gently barren, is filled with
grasses and flowers, and mat

musicians composed such
lovely tributes to April, the
month of beauty, freshness,
and life?
