"ON THE ;CEOWN 0? A HILL." ■ "On the-crown of a tumbling hill, snuggled in the bush, with the bluegrey: sky. above," an^l the sea swirling below, we made a hut. Of course, it's made of bush, while the strong, slim trunks of the tea-tree serve as frames for the walls and roof.and the wood, which we gathered on the.beach, was used-for the rustic seats and table. For ■the first time after we'd finished it, we;had a feast! The cloth was spread by the girls, while the boys did odd jobs, and although tlio drinks looked pretty with the chips of sunlight playing on! them, I would have liked to have a bowl of flowers in tho middle. iJ'.or it would have boon lovely, don't you think, "'Fairicl, with sunshine falling like bits of broken gold on to tinkling glasses, " flowers, -wild :i sunny cayc-likb' room. ~..'■'' Miramar. "IBISH MAItY."
