When the spreading trees are hoary With their wealth of promised glory. And the mavis sings Its story. In the spring. Have you plucked the apple-blossoms In the spring? In the spring? And caught their subtle odors In the spring? Pink buds pouting at the light. Crumpled petals baby-white, ' Just to touch them a delight In the spring. Have you walked beneath the blossoms In the spring? In the spring? Beneath the apple blossoms in the spring? When the pink cascades are falling, And the silver brooklets brawling. And the cuckoo bird soft calling. In the spring. If you have not, then you know not. In the spring, In the spring. Half the color, beauty, wonder of the spring. No sweet sight can I remember Half so precious, half so tender. As the apple uloBsoma render In the spring. William Martin.

A number of influential Siberians APRIL. "April, pride of woodland ways. Of glad days; April, bringing hope of prime To the young flowers that beneath Their bud sheath Are guarded in their tender time." rew or tne montns were ever moved about on the calendar quite as frequently as this, the loveliest season of the entire spring, when old Dame Nature is as busy as the pro verbial bee dressing the trese and fields in new garments of fresh and living green. In the ancient Alban calendar, when the year just had the meager supply of only ten months, the ten be ing of very Irregular length, April stood at the first of Cag year, with thirty-six days to its credit. Then in the calendar of Romulus, it was tucked away in the second place, and had to content itself with only thirty days. Numa's calendar docked the long suffering month again by taking away another day, and putting it down on the list until it lodged in the fourth place, where it has stuck hard and fast ever since. For many years It possessed only twenty-nine days, then Julius Caesar pulled the months and the year all to pieces, and kindly tacked one more day to April, restoring It to its old place among the other months pos sessing the dignity of thirty days. The name April is generally be lieved to have come from the Latin, "aperio." meaning, "I open," and was no dubt given to this particular sea Bon in the year when the buds of both trees and flowers begin to grow and unfold thefr beauties in the spring sunlight. The old Romans consecrated the first of April to Venus, the Goddess of Beauty and Queen of Laughter, and on that day the widows and maids of Rome used to assemble in her temple, and with tears and lam entations pray that the beautiful god dess would remove any deformities or blemishes that disfigured them, that they might became beautiful in the eyes of all beholders. The Romans regarded April aa a very gay and festive season, and dur ing the month they held many big celebrations, the great equestrian combat held on the nineteenth, and the Robigalia, on the twenty-fifth for averting mildew, being the two most important. Like all the other months in the year, April has had several names In his new calendar, Charlemagne designated it as the "grass month," a name the Dutch still cling to, call ing it at the present day "Grasmaad." Tken during Neros terrible reign it was known as Neroneus, being so called, no doubt, in honor of that vain and wicked ruler. Of course the Anglo-Saxons could not possibly let it go by them without adding at least one new name to the many it already possessed. "Oster monath," they called it, meaning the month when the East winds did muchly blow, and it is generally be lieved that the term Easter came from the same origin, for in this month the -Saxons held their great celebration in honor of their goddess Eastre. . . In China the symbolic plowing of the earth by the. Emperor and Princes of the Royal Blood takes place in their third month, which corresponds to our April, and in Ja pan there is held a quaint and in teresting domestic festival known as the Feast of the Dolls.
