9 AUTUMN DAYS I like the autumn because then the whole world is dressed in beautiful colors of gold and red It looks like fairyland The moon shines big and yellow and keeps me company when I go to bed The fall flowers look happy and gay The watermelons are npe and we feast on them each day We play with dolls made from ears of corn 'School begins In the autumn and it is fun to go again MA URINE GARDNER Salem Age 8 THE FIRST DAY OF AUTUMN Just think the spring and summer are almost gone and the fall is upon its Soon winter will throw a blanket over all the world covirmg it until Mulam Spring turns thr world to green Rgain There Is no other season like autumn so It Is hard for me or anyone else to decide which season they like best The spring Is fresh and green the summer brings flowers vacation and warmth and the winter brings Christmas and fun in the snow Lake none of these is autumn Through the haze of Indian summer we see men going to and fro over the fields following one of those giants of agriculture the combine How secure we feel when we see the plentiful harvest the rewards of our summer of labor The com stands in shocks against the clear blue of the sky with the golden yellow of the pumpkins splashing the drab ground with color The squash is stacked high near the granary waiting to be hauled into the place of storage for the winter The apples for most part have been picked Only the later Inter apples hang like holly berries the apple boughs Cabbages hang from the cellar ceiling The carrots and potatoes are in the pit We have seen to a plentiful supply of ixipcom for the long winter evenings In the city the people will be getting out their hraters for the winter and fall weather The warm clothes will be coming out of moth balls and the worn ones will be replaced bv oilicrs The society people as well as the children of the middle class will be planning parties and frolics to celebrate Hallowe en These people will buy the pumpkins and corn we have raised on the farm Hack In the hills and mountains there will be trees all scarh and golden The pine trees will be loaded with mils and cones Over it all is that haze that gives one the 1m-piexaon of all this being a dream That 1s my impression of autumn and that Is why I am anxiously waiting the first day of this delightful period I am Just as anxious about It as I was about the approach of spring last winter or the coming of summer thLs spring FSyuiRE GERALDPTE SIEVERT M'di in A (hkikVTii GAME The pin vers me Rented in a circle One suggests a IrtUr say Then each one must
