Are you a-storin’ up for use, when wintertime is here, a full supply o' sunlight bright—o’ summer’s ®olden cheer? Are you appreeiatin’ all the joys the summer season brings, when flowers speaks, brooks gurgles on an’ all the bird tribes sin@s? - Your lot may be a sad one, but jest think how worse you'd feel if winter's blasts was piercin’ you like knives o’ hardened steel. So save some o' the sunlight thoughts for them bleak, stormy days that come with summer’s endin’ an' approach o' winter's ways. Or if your lot be happy, store the golden rays away to bring a cheery memory to some dark winter day. M ol' friend pipe is drow: sort o' feelin’ o' the heat—but in its ruminatin’ clouds the same ol" heart- throbs beat. “At times I thinks,” quite personal it speaks, “that summer brings the nucleus o' them thar songs that all the vear I sings. The fields, the flowers an’ the streams is open free to all; I'm drainin’ of ‘'em freely ‘'gainst the comin’ o' the fall.” 25 YEARS AGO (From The Herald of That Date) Bids are being received for the building of the new High school Plans and specifications are on dis- play at the Y.

When love is brignt and whole again, I'll sing like the bee's weather, I'll set my colors up again Like the cock-pheasant’s feather, I'll find a note to make me one With lyric birds that sing the sun Il fill my songs with palmer's buds | And sprigs of thorn for Whitsunday, . And they shall dance as willow rods And shine with garlands of the may, I'll. be at theme that takes the i spring {From bushes where sing the blackbirds | 1 walk among my sheep azain !\ And turn my steps to numbers, When love is bright and whole again and fear has gone to slumbers With wings again and flowers and stars | To be my colored calendars. : —JOHN DRINKWATER in the Yale Review.
