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.

Autumn Reverie The autumn woods made a de'ightful picture from my place on the hill, it seemed as though some giant artist had tripped in the near-by brook and. falling, had let his huge paint pots spill all over the woods. The dark green landed on the pine trees making them even darker. The crimson and yellow splashes on the maples. As the giant fell, his hands scraped all the leaves from the birch trees and his usual silver paint had coated the white birches. Some of the trees had escaped his paint and were still green while some were dashed with yellow, green, crimson and purple. The srmac had been right beneath his pot of scarlet paint and was fairly dripping with the color. On the ground, the plants had received their share. There were flowers bathed with purple painted asters, and some with brilliant yellow goldenrod, while the leaves torn oft by his fall lay like a heap of butterfly wings. Suddenly, l heard 11 thud. Was it the giant coming back to get his paint? It cer.ainly was not. It was my history book which I had intended to study falfing to the ground unopened.-Betty Elson 1-t1ll, Getting To School on Time Harrison! Time to get up! Harrison! Harrison. Get up! Ho hum! Why did I go to the show last night? VVhy can't I stay home and sleep? I could have a sore throat or a stomach-ache but I've had them so often lately that I don't dare have another one for fear that I will have to go to the hospital. Oh, well! I can't be sick today so I guess I'll have to get up. I,.et's see now, the clock says ten minutes after eight. I could sleep ten more minutes and still be in school on time.
