Tag Tim Runaway Colt lias Fine Time But Goes Home Birthday Club Till? SALT' LAKE TRIBUNE JUNIOR SUNDAY MORNING MAY 15 1932 We expected to receive a large number of poems 'on the subject of Home but we did not expect such sincerity of expression such lovly appreciation of the true values necessary to make a home After all our poets are only boys and girls The fact that they love and enjoy their own homes whatever they may be like speaks well Indeed for the homes of the future It was again difficult to select the poems for this corner The selection must be made on the basis of merit and sincerity but other poems were so delightful that we shall use as many as we can in other parts of the section Myron A Madsen Duehesns Maurice Webb Merrill Preston Idaho Bud Spencer Pocatello Idaho: Arthur Clark Parvml I Rue Tucker Clear Creek: Eaarl John on Treaton Idaho: John litnckler Jr Mortau: Leona Beveridge Park City: Carl Lake: Harry Lamar Lee Sal Lake Enid Ktley Goshen: Robert HL vesler Eureka Harry Ortas Salt Lake: Walter Garcia Elko Nrv John Hinckley Wrtenkamp Pricey 8hrtfl1d Salt Lake: John Elwtn Ola Ur HuUd'i MAT 14 Mildred A Bentch Vallorso Colo lav rence Larsen Montpelier Idaho Wilma Bslka lclbo Merrlaru Heir a Bhelley Idaho Lawrence Peterson McGill Nev: Dahl Poulson Richfield: rwni'ih Alpp'i Brm Bambrouth Cornish Barbart Tlellen Monroe Betty Eda Inea Johnson Castlegate Navarre Millett Salt Lake!

There must be a forest fire somewhere I'll get out of here" So away he ran But before he got out of the forest there came dashing flames which seemed to be ready to swallow him up how will I ever escape?" cried the colt He ran hither and thither in a panic he cried is enough of the world for Crash! and a big tree fell right in front of him get out of here or exclaimed Flash and he made a leap through the flames Oh! Flash felt something cold rise around him and in a moment he realized that he was in the river As he climbed out on the other side he sighed that was a close Flash galloped through uie trees and before he knew it he came out into a village where there were quite a number of small farms I can find an open gate" Flash thought can escape into a And sure enough he did As the colt walked into the yard out came Tommy Dare what a cute little horse" cried Tommy walking up to Flash Just then Tommy's grandpa came out of tlie house cried the boy I put a rope around his neck and take him to the you may Tommy until we find the owner" Did Tommy have fun? He played bucking horse and cowboy and everything he could think of At last Tommy got some hobbles just put these on you coltie" he said you can't run away from me But he never got them on As he stooped over Flash grabbed the seat of overalls in his teeth and went out through the gate with the boy kicking and screaming Of course grandpa heard the racket and started after the naughty colt When Flash had run about a quarter of a mile he laid Tommy down gently and unhurt wish I could find my way home" aaid the colt had a square meal since 1 left" Down the road he trotted Almost at once he saw a band of about 60 horses going along the road He decided to join them He walked briskly up to one of them and said do you look so sad and where are you are going to be shipped away" A BEAL HOME See the house by the wayside Tis a place all ugly and tom There is no cemented pavement Just a small path in the grass is worn There's no drapery at the window Just cheesecloth curtains neat And sitting there rocking and mending Is a woman lovely and sweet The children are playing and singing Out In the old back yard They seem to be happy as any bird Although the times are hard And In that home I know there dwells Lots of charity and love And while they smile in their little home God smiles down at them from above Helen Anderson Age 1 Providence HOME Though through forest or prairie A person may roam He always remembers no place like home Though great seas you sail Where the ships toss in foam sd ways remember no place like home Though traveled afar And other lands known You'll always remember no place like home Wherever you travel Wherever you There's one spot to remember your home sweet sweet hornet Constant Emma Julia Jenkins Rexburg Idaho WHAT IS THIS? A place of love and beauty And If one yearns to roam I'm sure that if like me very soon come Higgs Age 11 Bingham Answer: Home HOME IS BEST Stubborn fretting little Billy Thought of a plan one day He said they didn't treat him right So he was going to run away do anything I ask them to Or stop and play with me So just going to pack and leave be sorry you just So off to his room he hurriedly skipped And was ready to leave in a jiffy Then he quietly crept down the old back stairs Looking cheerful and adorably spiffy He slipped to the kitchen and carefully made A little lunch for him to eat Then he softly crept out through the creaking back door And soon was far down the street That night Billy stayed in a creaky old barn But he never slept even a wink He rolled and tossed about on the hay And cried for mother to bring him a drink In the morning quite early he slipped from the bam And ran home at his most rapid pace He crept to his room and jumped Into bed And said all the best place" ESQUIRE BERYL TIIEURER Providence Age 13 MT HOME I went away last summer And oh what fun I had Till daddy came to see me And then I felt real sad I thought of home and mother And my dear little brothers And I was glad to go back To my "home sweet home" Stanley Age 9 NephL laid one I don't want to be chipped away whatever that thought Flash He started to run but the riders rode around him and made him stay with the band After a while Flash noticed that a man was trying to catch tip to the band The colt aeemed to recognize the face of the follower Then he heard a familiar voice saying: KNIGHTHOOD a Knighthood! Knighthood! Long may the echoes ring! Knighthood! Knighthoodt Of valor tme we aing Knighthood! Knighthood! Where chivalry is taught! Knighthood! JGiighthood! Where duties we shirk not Knighthood! Knighthood! Long may the echoes ring! Knighthood! Knighthood! Here we shall crown our King! VIRGINIA JUDD Rupert Idaho you fellows seen a stray and at that minute Flash broke from the others and ran up to his master he is" exclaimed his master So at last Flash found himself on the way home As he trotted wearily along he thought world 1 too big to see in one EVA HALLETT Gusher.
