SPRING'S ARRIVAL
(Original.)
We may easily tell when spring has / arrived for it is then that the green buds show on the apple tree, and the {pretty pink and nhite blossoms peep ■ out.
Let us take a walk in this fairies' I paradise and see all these marvellous j wonders. Here we are in a tiny glade iand nestling In those rocky crevices Iby the water's edge are violets and on this mossy coverlet are freesias, primroses, hyacinths, violets, daffodils, land jonquils. '.
On that distant hill is a little f-irm .near which some young lambs arc ifrisking. All around us are trees of all shapes and sizes.
What a lovely home for a fairy. A .pleasant, earthy odour pervades the air, and the still silence id broken only by the sound of bubbling water or the song of the birds. Ah! Listen to that bellbird!" I think he Is spring's herald. "MIRAFLORA" (9).
Khanaallah.
