LOVELINESS Crimson skies and deep blue waters, Flow'rets gay in festive colors brightj Nature revels in her scarlet gloiyf Man's ennobled by the loveb sight. DANDELIONS A cloth of gold for the Queen of May, The modest flowers offield and way Spread o'er the earth in bright array Dandelion blooms their homage pay. CHRISTINE COLMAN SOMETIMES Sometimes I like to think of me, And the little girl I used to be,' With ambitions high, and dreams sublimef Alas, they all have passed with time! MARY NICIIOLSON LENGTHENING SHADOW S When the long day fades into the night, And all earth's beauty is veiled from my sight, I linger on to hear the murmuring pines, And the music of soft breezes stirring the tangled vines. MARY HARRINOTON MEDITATION Lord, how they pierced Thy hands that night on Calvagfs summit crowned, And how they scorned and laughed and jeered when Thou didst fall upon the ground. They saw Thy Face 'neath a blood-stained crown, and they gazed on Thy Bleeding Hands, But, dear Lord, it caused them not a sigh, those guardsmen in command. If I could take out just one nail, and soothe Thy aching Brow I should gladbf do it all for Thee-in this medi- tation hour,' But I'll live again those sorrouful days in sympathy for Thee, By acts of self-denial, kindliness and love and true humility. PAULINE SULLIVAN 93 ,I Faye Gallimore, 1941 Drum Major CONFIDENCE Were you to have firm faith in me 'T would help me on the road, A strong incentive to noble deeds, To press onward beneath my load. What I need is a friendly smile, A hand-clasp strong and sure, The journey through life is many a mile, And the trials are hard to endure. Wereyou to say, Friend, I believe in you, You can do what others have done, I should make an attemptAa manb try, And continue until I had won. ROBERT DQJNOVAN WAITING Waiting in the silvery moonlight, Beneath the shadow of a tree, Lonely Xavier looked toward China H Towards a land he ne'er will see.

MARY HARRINGTCDN Count and Countess by proxy 921 A DAY IN SPRING I took a walk in earb May Down the long road that windf away, Down where the fhadowf and cunbearnf play.

No time to roam! Up the hill that leader to home, Far up near the Junfetlr dome. JEAN Gooo FLOWERS I Jaw around a twirling mill A rainbow, ax I thought, But when I climbed the grafcy hill I found what I had fought. It wax a bed of violets, AJ blue df blue can be, So fragrant, for the dew had Jet, And I culled juft two or three. And then I gathered rofef For they were red with bloom I picked come budding pofief And Jcujled back the loam. For now I had my flowery With colorcr bright and rare Kept frexh with heavenly Jhowerf A bouquet, beautiful and fair.
