Suddenly It's Spring What a beautiful day! White clouds roll over the sky, and the whole atmosphere is filled with sunshine . It's the kind of day that makes you feel glad to be living. Storm windows are taken down, spring coats make an appearance, and young people meet for softball games on the common. Yes, spring is here to stay. Then comes the crises, a snow storm! Shovels are taken out from their hiding places, and overshoes are pulled on again. Mr. Hutchinson loses all hopes of selling any seeds from his colorful display at the store. However, something is found to save us from our miseries, for beauty is all around us. Petersham magnifies the beauty of snow as no other town can do. The soft white blanket seems to whisper to the flowers: Please, sleep just for a few more days. Don't be impatient. Even the trees want to look special. This time only the northern side is covered with snow, and it makes them look like ballet dancers. When the sun is setting, mother-nature seems to hurry and paint beautiful, rich colors across the sky. These are reflected in the snow, and instead of a blanket, we find the world's most precious jewels. The next day something happens. The snow we knew yesterday is no more. Again mother-nature takes her course, and the splendor is melting away. People watch for the first robin and then the first green grass. Yes, suddenly it's spring. ,f J Doris Nelson '45 FA of 7 N f fl'jQ, 1 f URecos The Military Mann . -'se f - c X' K4,-,xN,f,'f I, Recos is a military man. f ' -Q 5f2gPlnw He belongs to the State Guard Clan.
