Then I think thal old school days are here Making me study once more, And instead of playing each morning I’ll have to walk through the school door. ! But it isn’t so bad after all, For all of my friends are here, And new lessons and games are pleasant, I am glad for the new school year. By Sarah Levy, Atlanta, Ga., Age 12.

First is a man whose faith in God was supreme The second led Israel into the land of its dream. The third was driven from Eden in sorrow and tears, The fourth was won by her husband after seven long years, The fifth went traveling in search of a wife, The sixth killed his brother and fled for his life. The seventh a prophet, a shepherd was he, The whole is the glorious land of the free. MEDIEVAL THIRST lb y, Hry! my vagabond— W hat so le ye now if *ager love and fond lino hied ye forth and how?

OUR FRIEND By ERNA F. ASHER Who dares to call upon his God In any time of need; And has true faith and confidence Will find a Friend, indeed. Why speak our trials to mortal mein If weighted down with care; When God Himself stands close at hand To answer every prayer? PHANTASY From out a myriad shadowed chaos, I sought a fading sheen— In which I dreamt a golden floss Made Life a mad careen— Of wishes and of avatars— That carashed as comet stars. I soared aloft the human plane And reaped a poignant pain Of grinning lips and mocking laugh That reeked with darkness’ chaff, While passion of a Volscen rolled And black oblivion was extolled. So trite a vial to the eye Thou* torment dost supply— Thou, bit of death with no alloy, U T hr, i z>,n7 temnta HANAN SHOES Their quality and workmanship are traditional with the makers.
