NATURE AND LIFE Weather and the changes of wind, clouds, light and shadow, remind me of life. Watching the sky the other morning from a hill-tcp, I saw the passing of great banks of clouds. They waved slowly and heavily, and as far as I could see there was nothing but darkness. It did not seem possible that behind all of this inky-black- ness there was clear blue and the golden sunshine. As I looked and wondered about this, suddenly a gust of wind tore a large hole right in the midst of the dark clouds and a patch of blue appeared, and a few rays of sunshine sifted through. It was only for a few seconds, but it was there ! It reminded me of events in life. Dark clouds of misunderstanding and mistakes cover the bright sunshine of happiness, and our mental day is dark and gloomy. Suddenly things shape themselves and are clear again; mistakes are corrected and a wind of good feelings blows these clouds away. Once more like the heavens above, our day is bright and gay.

the sun is not shining on her. She closes her petals. This poppy grows very abundantly and fields of it are called carpets of gold. The matili ja poppy is the sister of the California poppy, though it does not resemble it in any way. it is very tall. Sometimes it grows to nine or ten feet, and it has long, beautiful, white petals which spread out as far as nine inches, while in the center is a large, flossy, yellow ball. The California poppy blooms in ear ly spring whilo its sister the matilija poppy does not bloom until late in the spring or in early summer. These poppies remain open several days, swaying to the time of the wind, and attracting the attention of many visitors . Martha Carlson K7 THE FIRST LESSON x It was the first day that the sun had shone since Christmas. The children of the neighborhood were out playing with their new toys, while you sat on the gutter with your new bicycle beside you. You wanted some friend to help you learn to ride it. I wish Stephen would hurry,” you murmured to your- self . At last your friend arrived. He knew all about bi- cycles. He got you properly seated. Now, don’t worry. You won’t fall because I am go- ing to balance you, he replied as he began to push you along the gutter. After going about fifty yards you cried in a trem- bling voice, Don’t let mo fall l” You hoard no reply. You repeated in a more steady tone, Don’t let mo fall’ Again no reply was hoard. Then just as you reached the corner you hoard a yoll from Stephen half a block away saying: Keep on going around the block. You did so. Ton minutes later you saw Stephen waiting for you at the place where you had started. I can’t stop, you shouted as you neared him. Just stop pumping and make your feet go the other way, he replied. You did so and stopped with a jerk all out of breath . Robert Heydeggor H9
