These Are
My Jewels 7
As any kid in Kenansville can
tell you, I love children of all
ages. They are as dear to my heart
as if they were my own from Bil
ly Craft not yet ten months old
who can say 'HI' now, Rttdy Hasty
who at three is already a heart
breaker, and who behaves like an
angel In Sunday School, David Mc
Ky who is one of the friendliest
young men I have ever seen, full of
fun, and who teases' me regularly,
and Margaret Grady who can tell
you enchanting stories of the fair
ies and whose eyes grow as big
as saucers when you tell her tales
of long ago, to almost grown up
kids like my good friends, James
Edward Brtnson, and Gail Newton
and Sylvia Gooding and all the
grand kids I've met at scout meet
ings, and the slightly, older ones
still in high school, whose manners
are beautiful and whose sweetness
is as refreshing as our flower lad
en air, lovely girls like Diane
Stokes and Millie Burch and Yvon
ne Patterson, Barbara Mitchell and
Sally Newton. mere are many
more of them -not only In Ken
ansville but all over the United
States -and abroad. ; I feel a deep
sympathy with them, I am delight
ed when they share their dreams
and their Jokes with me, their
hopes and fears. You can learn
lots from them, all of them. They
are the most honest critics you will
ever have and will keep you on
your toes mentally and physically
kids like Steve and Jimmie and
John Gilbert who challenge me to
some new test daily, or play some
Joke on me. These kids are our
future, and our hope for a better
world. We have no right ever to
be too busy to help them, to talk
with them, to play with them, to
lead tnem, to give tnem an ine
benefit 'of our' accumulated heri
tage,' to stimulate them into dar
ing to do better than we have done!

We were very tired, we were very
merry : '
We had gone back and forth all
night on the ferry.
It was bare and bright, and smell-
en ira a s tame
But ' we looked into a fire, we
leaned across a table,
We lay on a hill-top underneath the
moon;
And the whistles kept blowing, and
the dawn came soon.
We were very tired, we were very
merry
We had gone back and forth all
night on the ferry.
And you ate an apple, and I ate a
pear.
From a dozen of each we had
bought somewhere;
And the. sky went wan, and the
wind came coin,
And the sun rose dripping, a buc-
xetrui of gold.
We were very tired, we were very
merry,
We bad gone back and forth all
night on the ferry.
We hailed, "Good morrow, mother!'
; to a shawl-covered head,
And bought a morning paper,
which neither of us read;
And she wept, 'God bless you!' for
the apples and the, pears.
And we gave her all our money
but our subway fares.
