May child love and the birds together
Make all your life like summer weather;
May flowers blossom in your sight,
And golden stars bring peace at night.

MRS. E. ANNETTE HILLS.


DO RIGHT.

“Well met, my little man!
Now tell me, if you can,
The very nicest way
To spend this long, dull day.”

“Well, sir, my mother says,
Of all the pretty ways
To make a dark day bright
The best is just do right!”
