LAMB'S DREAM CHILDREN An Essay by 'Catherine Brown Dream Child'ren by 'Char-les Lamb is a very fascinatingpiece of' work., For a bachelor, Charles Lamb has a great understanding of child- ren and their likes. He expresses his thoughts and ideas in a manner almost poetic. Children like to listen to a story and try to imagine them- selves in the roles of the stories characters. Charles Lamb brings this fact out vividly. Charles Lamb, in Writing Dream Children , was in a sense whiting' the story of his life a.s 'it might have been. He imagined a home, a wife, and childre-n. He could have: been very happy if he had been the husband and Father in such a home. In his Writing he showed the type of person he really was. Mr. Lamb, who stayed by and cared for an insane sister, was a very sentimental man. He loved home: and all it stood for. In his story he creates a feeling of greatness about great-grandmother Field. He pictures the uncles, John L., as a kind and courageous person. Charles Lamb has created his dream children in the likeness of his dream wife. The-y have the same likes and mannerisms. Together they make a. com- plete picture of a harmonius home where love and kindness reign. In writing Dream Children , Charles Lamb was writing of what he considered a perfect home. A PRAYER ' by Lois Jean Mahr It's a fine summeir night, with .stars far and near, l stop, think, and wonder, While the music I hear, What a wonderful feeling it is to be free, As I bow down my head and kneel on my knee, I pray to those stars that I see up above, I pray for my friends and the country I love, I pray to my Go-fl that all troubles may cease, And that We may have everlasting peace.

As the boys were Very shy and bashful, o-urparties were quite dull. Then in May we surely were proud when Geraldine Bricks-1 and Louise Turchaii added their beauty to the May Queen's Court.
