Kitidlincss is her chief virtue. And very wise was she. She has a voice like sweet music. Not one word spake she more than was needed. Well could she draw with pencil and with pen. From childhood addicted to study. She was a dreamer of dreams. An airy, fairy Lilian. The Candy Kid.” Sober he seemed and very strangely sad. He'll look young till forty. A youth, light-hearted and content. S — Continued BERGER, HOMER, 610 North 9th St., K.

He kept his eyes glued to his desk. A good fellow. Our sweet singer. The bronze adorned his breast. Sherlock Holmes the Second. Extremely quiet for one of his age. The law-giver. Study never claimed him for her own. A tall man, by heavens! His serious mein doth hide whatever he doth know. Full of strange ideas. His accommodations make up for his procrastinations. Xot often disturbed. 4. hearty mannered youth. The glass of fashion.

 Now, John, he heard his teacher say, “I’ll give you only one more day To learn these rules on punctuation And show, in a letter, their application.” Rut Johnny, sitting sullen at home That night, did nothing but scowl and groan: “Aw, what’s the use to study rule On what is known by any fool?” And thinking thus, the epistle began. Dear teacher I hope,” and so on. it ran. With less regard for any rule Than we’d expect from any fool He wrote, and wrote, until at last His head was nodding, eyes closed fast. But suddenly he gave a start; He sat up staring, lips apart, For there, around on every side, Were horrid phantoms from which to hide. And mocking fingers, and angry cries, ’Til poor John, cowering, hid his eyes. “Away with him!” “Down with him!” “Vengeance!” they yell, And on him rush in mass pell-mell. “Have mercy! Mercy!” shrieks poor John. “What wrong to you can I have done?” They checked their rush, and said the first: “My name is Comma. And thou durst Omit me in direct address? In compound sentences oppress? Thou dost ignore my right to go With elements inverted? Ho! Thou bar me from a clause—and live — That’s non-restrictive, adjective?” A mocking laugh rang through the air. And hardly had its sound died there. When John's last hope of peace was stolen By these stern words from Semicolon “Since thou’st forbidden me to stand Between chief clauses for ‘but’ or ‘and,’ Also before ‘thus,’ ‘namely,’ ‘as,’ Thou’lt suffer worse than man e’er has. The boy felt frozen stiff with terror. And realized another error, When Colon leant with frightful leer: Grasped him; hissed into nis car. John woke, and, in the phantom’s place. He saw his mother’s kindly face; He felt her touch upon his arm, And knew he had escaped from harm. Yet knew within his heart of hearts That he would have to do his part. To know more than the average fool, By learning each appointed rule. -G. G. G.
