Just down a way, there is a stream — That flows so gently on. The croaking of the many frogs, Where on the banks they throng — Bring myriads of tiny folk To sing their nightly song. In broad daylight the birds are there With all their fussy chirping, With eve ' n tide comes soft pale light And when the darkness falls — There is a lull when all is still; As if with breath abating They stay so quietly in place, For the beautiful moon they ' re waiting; Then suddenly one frog will croak Followed by a cricket, and very soon The air is filled as is a forest thicket. With sounds of every tone and kind. That make me think of fairy land Those thoughts I have in mind. For ' pears to be Not one night ' s creature is ever left behind. I sit and wait the whole day long For just such sounds as these For that is how — GOD bestowed on me — The gift with which to see. Paula Jordan COMPLIMENTS OF THE JORDAN FAMILY

My Ideal Miss f ' This little Miss, Oh! so demure With dainty ways and looks so pure. Is, indeed, a lovely treat; From head, to hands, and tiny feet. Sometimes she seems almost not real, A darling Miss with quaint appeal. Her lovely tresses like pure spun gold, A smile most sweet to behold. She seems so delicate and fair. She seems to be quite free from care, She seems so full of loveliness One would hardly ever guess — How she can cook and work and sew And do the things not many know. Ouite how to do, at that young age; She has the wisdom of a sage. Now one fine day you all will know How far along the path to go; The path of knowledge, to be true. Is what I mean for me and you; To catch up with this dainty lass Methinks we never will surpass. Paula Jordan
