THE KINGFISHER tFlorence Welcll, ASU The kingfisher is a sly little birdg For his prey he catches with a quick little lurchg Then he soars into tl1e air- with the fish in his beak, And ities to some branch with his prey to eat.

I BE HAPPY fBy Ruth June Bittler, BSJ IN MY GARDEN qrnyiiis sins, BSJ Ll1il1lL4lLL,1ALLLiLLlL The flowers that bloom l11 my garden Are fragrant and sweet as can beg For I hoe it and weed it And keep it so neat, That how could it help but be? I have roses and lilacs In my garden, And asters and lilies, loo: For mine is a flower garden- I like them best, dont you? MEDITATION IBy Lorene Welch, BS.J As I was wandering down the beach. The sand crabs scurrying at my feet, l Saw 11 ship far out at sea, . And wondered if it could ever be That it' some day I, too, should roam, The ship out there would bring me home From the distant land across the blue To my America and you. Try to be happy when you are sad: Try to make this old world feel gladg Although sorrow has COITIG to youg . Try to forget it and do not be blueg Try to be happy while you are here And the sky will always seem clear. Look out your window some night When you are sad and things aren't right, Your sorrows will all go away When you see the stars overhead Twinkle and say, Be happy.

Then let's be grateful for these things With all the fun Thangskiving brings.
