“I will turn their mourninf;;
Into joy, and will conjfortthem,
and make them rejoice from
their sorrow.”—jer, 31:13.
As a child, did you think you
were “Mary, Mary, quite con
trary?” Well, It seems to me
that flowers were given such
fascinating names, you felt you
were a part of this beautiful,
magical world, and fitted Into
all the nursery rhymes.
What about Jack-in-ihe-Pul-
plt. Brown Eyed Susan, Violet,
Rosey, Forget-Me-Not, Love
Lies Bleeding, Bleeding Heart
and Job’s Tears? Sweet Wil
liam met all the ladies at the
flower socials. We lived In a
make believe world of imagin
ation, but it added to our hap
piness.
It is time to enjoy your mag
azines and seed catalogue,
and to start forcing branches
indoors. Crab apples, cherfies,
quince, pussy willows, for-
sythias, jasmine, oak tree
branches and maples make
lovely arrangements.
Cut the branches and mash
the tower part of the stems with
a hammer. Stand them in a foot
or two of water In a cool room,
and keep the branch sprinkled
until It forces its buds out. You
may still stay Indoors and en
joy the great outdoors.
This week, for our Buds and
Blossoms poem, we bring you
a sample of Ben King’s humor
and whimsey, titled “The
Pessimist.”

Nothing to wear but clothes
To keep from going nude.
Nothing to breathe but air.
Quick as a flash ’tis gone;
Nowhere to fall but off.
Nowhere to stand but on.
Nothing to comb but hair.
Nowhere to sleep but in bed;
Nothing to weep but tears.
Nothing to bury but dead.
Nothing to sing but songs;
Ah, well, alas? alack!
Nowhere to go but out.
