TOP-KN01' Columbus School for Girls The Daffodil Tea Cup I wish I had a tea cup just like a daffodil, But no man can make it with quiet enough skill. A pretty yellow cup and a pretty little frill, A pretty yellow saucer to make the daffodil. ELEANOR MCCLOSKEY, Form Five The Fairies The little dwarfs are black as ink, The fairies are all dressed in pink, The brook goes flowing into towns, Where the fairies buy their gowns. Where all the grass is growing green, There the dwarfs are always seen. The turtles run along the grass, Where the fairies have their mass. At the seaside the fairies play, It is there they have a time most gay. VIRGINIA STARK, Form Four The Snowflakes The sky was dark and dreary, The snow was falling fast, And the limbs of the trees were weary With the snow that was falling past. Why don't you stop to see us? Said the trees to the falling snow, Perhaps you would like to join us And over us lightly blow? The snowflakes merrily answered, We've journeyed from late last night From the land where our dear kind princess Sits dressed in dazzling white. BETTY LUPHER, Form Six E261

He had very little schooling. He studied law when he was older. Then he was made President of the United States in 1860. He wanted to free all the slaves, but the Southern states didn't want him to. So that's how they started the Civil War. He was made President for the second time in 1864. On the evening of April 15, 1865, he went to the theater with Mrs. Lincoln, and an actor shot the President, who died the next day. He liked to live a simple life, 'every day he would go out walking to forget his sorrows. He wore an old shawl and a tall hat. He had four children and only one is living. LOUISE SHEDD, Form Four.
