By Mildred White. Aged It Tears; Mel Chicago Street. Dundee. Of the four seasons of the year, spring summer, autumn and winter. It Is very hard to decide which la the most favor able. In the spring we have the beautiful flowers, trees and grass commencing to bud. Tbe girls start to Jump rope and the boys to play marbles. After the long cold winter, spring la always very wel come. Then comes summer with all Its beauti ful birds and flowers, but we soon tire nf summer as It gets so Intensely warm, wa long for the snow and the snow ball lights. After this beautiful season comes autumn.' The leaves change their dresses ot green to brown, sold and red. Tbe fanners have their harvest and the plants commence to prepare for their long wlnter'a nap. At this time of the year kite flying Is the center of pleasure. As soon as everything la ready for him Winter comes with ills icicles and snow. He covers everything with the beautiful snow flakes. Children skate on Ice skates and build snow forts. ,,The center of pleasure In thin aeuson Is .coasting. , . Ot aU threw beautiful seasons I believe my favorite Is spring. In this particular season Mother Nature seems to smilo and even the heavens look glad to see the plants budding forth with new life. The trees and graae peep from their winter Quarters. For these reasons and many more too numerous to mention 1 prefer spring as my favorite season. (Honorable Mention.) My Trip to Manawt. By Arthur Jensen, Aged Tears. JOE 8t Mary's Avenue.

The river from nfar looked like a raging sea. the whits snow an the floating ice taking the place of the angry waves. At last we selected a place to sit on. At this place the river turned. The Ice struggled: some pieces went upside down, others stood up straight and the collisions were numerous. The roaring, cracking of the Ice and the awishlng ef the water reminded me of a mill.

Fear ia similarly expressed tn a shrill, brassy trumpet, or by a roar from the lungs. Pleasure by a continued low squeaking through the trunk or an al most Inaudible purring sound from the throat. Want-ae a calf calling Ita mother le chiefly expressed by the throat. A peculiar sound Is made use of by ele phants to express dislike or apprehension, snd st the same time to Intimidate, aa when the cause of some alarm haa been clsarly ascertained and the animate wish to deter an Intruder. It Is produced by rapping the end of the trunk amsrtly on the ground, a current of air hitherto re tained being sharply emitted through ths trunk, aa from a valve, at the moment of Impart. The sound made resembles that ot a large eheet of tin rapidly doubled. School on Land Ship. ' One of tha features of their public evhool training which the eoya of Berlin.
