eigweaggsjeaweagea SCARAB Q9Q53BQ53QQj3 GOD I stood upon a hilltop green, Marveling at earth's splendor at dawn, The sky, the trees, the iirst sunbeam, The dew on the grassy lawn. The birds' sweet song, the bees at work, The farmers at toil in the field. Never a thought of their duty to shirk, But dreaming of harvest's yield. The golden crops of wheat and rye, The rustling wind in the corn, The lleecy clouds in the pale blue sky, Herald another day born, Soft chatter of a tiny brook Awakened the sleepy flowers, In a secluded mossy forest nook, Vine-covered the fairy bowers. With all this splendor about us each day, Who can doubt- our Mighty King Whom the sea, the waves, and the wind obey Whose praises the nations sing? Who carefully fashioned this world of ours The moor and the oak trees tall? Who can doubt, as he looks at the flowers, There is a God, a creator of all? Who carefully fashioned this world of ours, The beauty of love and strife, The years, the days, the hours, Then thoughtfully gave us life? Anyone can build a school, A fool is a worker of mirth, A common man can make a rule, But only God could make our earth! -Sch warzentruber. Page niuety'three QQQQQLQQQQQZQQEQ NINETEEN TWENTY SEVEN

Poor Billy could make neither head nor tail of it. The name of the place was Discourteous Replyvilleu and what queer names the streets had, There was k'Nope and Yep and the next street was ul Vv'on't and there came Uhfhuh and gkHL1ll'L1hl, and oh! ever so many others. The houses had such queer facesfeit was very bewildering. As Billy was gazing about him he was suddenly seized from behind and dragged down the terrible streets and all the houses waved their arms fwhich were really chimneysj at him. and pointed their smoke lingers at him as he went by. Presently they reached a great court place where Billy was brought before a Queenkall around him were dead fairies, which he was told were Courtesy Fairies and the Queen was their ruler. They told Billy every time he had talked back to his teachers or parents he had killed a fairy and for every fairy he had killed he was to be punished and what a number of fairies there were. The Queen waved her wand and all the fairies came to life and Billy was then taken off by them to a deep, dark dungeon, where they put chains of Yeps and 'kNopes on him, They gave him bread made from Uhfhuhs and water from LkHUll'LlhSii' and were going to stick with I Vsfont' pins. Poor Billy begged them to let him go and promised he'd never he rude in his speech again. Finally the Queen said he could go home and away ran Billy. As he sped down the streets he noticed that all the houses had kind smiles and -could it be? Yes, here he was in the very same closet mother had put him in for talking back to her. Well, l'm certainly glad to be back. said Billy with a sigh of relief. V. X X , -Discourfeous e f vilfe , n : ,, -- ' Bn so ,ah ,H I.
