Mine The world no longer holds beauty for me, But earth still has her wonders, 11nd no human can take these from me. For these are mine. In that for whieh we pay the 'least I'Ve get the most. The moon in her silver beauty, The sun in his golden glory, The stars in their diamond brillicneeg All these are 'mine for naught. But love in its tears, Happiness in its grief- These are not mine for aught. -C. Lotta The Roadside Stand QWith apologies to Sam Walter Fossj There are many folks who love to sit Where the lake-shore breezes blowg There are folks, like bees, who love lo drone IV here the vgwrderz flowers grorcy' Hut most of the folks, their autos drive, So I began to plan For II ,Q'llS,li71fI' pump by the side of the road, And to be a friend to man. Im! me lire in my sland by the side of the fraud Where the racing- autos zvhineg The ears that are good, the ears that are bad, As good and as bad as mine. I would not sit in the r-hauffeufs seat, And hurl the vynic's ban At the one at the pump, by the side of the road, Who would be a friend to man. They 007716 to my stand by the side of the road, By the side of the highway of life, Follfs who are thirsty and want a drink, Folks weary with hunger and strife. .Vo I serve them some pop, and a hamburg too, And charge them all I can. It's a joy to live by the side of the road And be a friend to man. -Martha Hakes, English fl1A Parody on The House by the Side of the Road By Sam Walter Foss O20 1936 Cl'lIiVROX

When I Crow Upn I like to look through 'mieroscopesg When I grow big I have my hopes To fnd new things where ere I look, And get them all put in a bookg New sieknesses, new vures galore To help the people more and -more. And when all these new things are done We'll eure each illness one by one. John Weeks, Grade 5A Success Viz-tory shows, without a doubt, The peace we all would win l'omes not so much from things without .fls from the heart within. --William Dollinger The Quest Beauty With swift motion, As a high, jitful wind, Flees, and if we pursue it, Vanishes. -Jean Weilhamcr The Sea-Gull Look there Against the blue sky A silver gull, swooping low, sailing high- Poised there, he utters No cry. -Virginia Dunlavy Transformation A spark, a glow, a rainbow bright, Into the gray it fades, And twilight comes on wavering wings To bring a haven for men and maids. A sheet of black drawn o'er the sky Like velvet, dark and warm. It turns the bright and glowing Earth Into beauty of deeper form. A spark, a glow, a light shines through, Piercing the blackness of the sky. And God has wrought a miracle In His kingdom, upon high. -Sylvia Forman 1936 CHEVRON 21.
