As You All Know XIC Coll. has another outstanding poem writer in the person of Marjorie Unger. She has just completed two sensational new poems which she has agreed to let the Northland Echo publish for your benefit. The first poem A Cabin in the Pines was written by Miss Unger after she had been stroll- ing with a certain young man, and as they were walking they passed a cabin surrounded by pines. The second poem Haunting Shadows was written under different circumstances. Miss Unger with her note book was watching a fashion show when the shadows of the models stirred her mind and prompted her to write this poem. The First Poem A Cabin in the Pines Up on the hills topping the sky A bluebird is singing a lullaby: And in these hills standing all alone Is a one story cabin built of stone: And oh! The sweet smell of birch and pine With silver tipped leaves that twist and shine. And down by the path is a winding creek, A rendezvous shelter such as all lovers seek: And oh! In the evening when the moon is sub- lime, There comes to your nostrils, the smell of sweet pine. Here the dawn has its magic too, When the sun appears in a bed of blue: And the morning-glory spreads its lovely fan, And sits in the sun to get all the heat it can. So if you are tired, and need some quick Stop at Pine Cabin,-don't pass by it!
