Cur- rie. of Jackson Springs: Many pictures are engraved upon a teacher's heart; ' Scenes that man could never paint, because they are God's own art. Deeply etched is one on mine, that nothing can efface, The figure of a happy child, our gen tie little Grace. I see her in the school room with lovely eyes up turned; drinking in with eagerness the lessons to be learned. (It was a blessed privilege to look into the face And catch a ray of heaven in ' the smile of little Grace.) I see her in a 1 walk, herself as fair" and . ft 3 thy arbutus flowers that were hiding at our feet, and searching, one could never find, ah, not the slightest trace of aught but love and sweetness in the, heart of little Grace. I see her at' our parting she a blessed child of nine and feel again the lit tle hands that clung'so tight to mine, I In fancy, and can feel again the ten der warm embrace, Of those slender, clinging, loving arms of gentle little Grace. . Our hearts are stunned. We bow with grief. We cannot under stand. We only know our flower was plucked by God's own gracious hand. He Vnust have had some place in heaven, some very special place, That no one else could fill for Him, but our own angel Grace. XX A Bird. of a Pun.
