Happy Lines.
"ROSES." (Original.) Roses yellow, white, and red, Koses in a sunny bed, Smiling at the sky and trees • As they sway in the gentle breeze. Hoses climbing up the wall,' Roses slender, roses tall. The white rose with her pearly gown, And the yellow one with her golden crown. The scarlet-red, ruby rose. With her graceful, queenly pose. But the rose of slmcle petals pink Is the best of all, I think.'■DOUBLE DUTCH" (12). City. • • • "THE BLUEBELL ELF." There's a funny little elf lives in the bluebells, She isn't very happy, nor yet sad; And though the bells ring every time the wind blows, They never ring a tune that makes her glad. Sho lives along the borders of the meadows, But if you chance to see her, and you stare. She takes a bluebell, thrusts her head into it. And when you look she simply isn't there! Sent in by ZOB DEAN (6). City. •• ' • "HOW ABOUT YOU?" I woke before the morning, I was happy all the day, I never said an ugly word But smiled and stuck to play. And now at last the sun is going Down behind the wood And I am very happy, for I know that I've been good. Sent in by "VIOLA VSB" (U). Kalwsrra.
