Returning from a trip of inspection to the North- ern Territory, Dr. Willlam J.

They were all talking about their plans and their hopes. Many of them hoped to be Jack O'Lanterns. “I'll tell you what,” said one of the pumpkins, “let's make wishes on the moon.” The others thoyght that was a| - splendid idea and you would have laughed, if you could have seen the pumpkins, one after the other, wishing on the moon. Onc put his wish in a rhyme. I wish that I may carry a light To show my yellow face so bright. I wish to go on Hallowe'en To some place where I will be seen, To some party may I be bidden So my pumpkin glory will not be hidden. ‘The others told the pumpkin who had just recited this wish that his lines were quite uneven and that his poetry was not very good. “I made| my meaning clear and if my lines “No matter,” said he, weren’t even—well, it's not stylish for a pumpkin to be like others. “A large mouth is a splendid thing to have if one is a pumpkin. Lots of people do not care fop huge mouths. “A fat, round shape is magnifi- isn't so The other pumpkins all agreed | with this, and before the meeting was over the pumpkins all sang to- gether under the light of the moon This was the chorus of their song Pumpkins are we, All full of glee. We live in a field, We may end in a pie, It's just all the same, In the good bye-and-bye. And then the Little Black Clock said, “We'd better leave now. The pumpkins are' falling asleep.” And now, not a sound was heard in the field.
