Think you can bear it? ('over your eyes with' your hand and hear it. You know how cold the days are still? And everybody saying how late the Spring is? Well—cover your eyes with your hand—the thing ia There Isn't going to l>e any Spring. s No parkin* here! No parkin* here! They amid to Sprlns: No parkin* hera! Spring came on as she always does. Laid her hand on the yellow foYsythia— • Little boys turned in their sleep and smiled, Dreaming of marbles, dreaming of agates; Little girls leapt from their beds to see Spring come by with her painted wagons. Colored wagons creaking with wonder— # Laid her hand on the robin’s throat; When up comes you-kno'w-who, my dear, You-know-who in a fine coat. And says to Spring; No parking here! No parkin* here! No rwrkln* hare! Move on! Move on! No parkin* here! g Come walk with me In the city gardens. (Better keep an eye out for you-know-who.) . Did you ever see such a sickly showing? Middle of June, and nothing groVing: The gardeners peer and scratch their heads And drop their sweat on the tulip-be<Js, But not a blade thrusts through. * Come, move on! Don't you know how to walk? No parkin* here! And no back talk! Oh, well, hell, it's all for the best. She certainly made a lot of clutter, Dropping petals under the trees, Taking your mind off your bread and butler. Anyhow, It's nothing to me. * I can remember, and so' can you (Though we'd better watch out for you-know-who. When we sit around remembering Spring). We shall hardly notice in a year or two. You can get accustomed to anything. . —By Edna St. Vincent Millay. One of the most amusing of the poems read by Edna St. Vincent MHlay when she appeared before the Omaha Society of Fine Arts Tuesday at Hotel Fbntenelle was "Spring Song.” More beautiful poems by this young writer could be quoted, but this one took on special interest when Miss Millay related the circumstance which inspired it. She confided that the critics have called It "entirely re grettable.” but confessed toward it herself the tenderness of a mother for her lame child. She and her husband (Eugene Bois sevain) were driving back to New York one day toward the end of win ter, she said. Snow still lay on the roadside. As yet they had had no sign of spring. Approaching a park, Miss Millay thought she heard a tree toad. "Can It be?" she sgid. "Do let’s stop and listen." They did, and surely It was a tree toad! Harbinger of lovely spring! Just In their moment of ecstacy a traffic cop whizzed along. "Move on!." he ordered. "No park ing here!" Of course they did move on, and with no back talk. But spring had faded away from their spirits. “It seems such a pity," said Miss \Jlllay, "that we say to youth ’Move on' when It’s spring.” Curtis-Houser ▲ pretty home wedding took place In Cohimbue, Neb., at 'high noon Saturday when Lillian, daughter of Mr. and lira Henry J.
