THE STORM.
(By Margaret Hujton, -45, Dexter Avenue, Mount Eden.) Across the sea to a quiet shore the beams of the setting sun vera sent. Darkness came over the earth, the moon rose, and the quiet breeze caressed the dark, leafy trees. The water, the clouds looking like silver against the dark skv, the Water reflecting all the beauty of 1 that sky—can you not see it all? < Then suddenly the clouds hid the 1 moon, the wind arose, and grew worse. The once quiet trees were blown here and there, torn away from earth and from each other. The sea became a roaring torrent, and the waves lashed the shore. The moon came out from behind the clouds, the sea calmed, the trees became " quiet, and soon in the sea the moon was ' mirrored. The earth smiled back to the smiling moon, and everything became happy and peaceful again. 1 0......................... 1
