Perhaps it stems i'rom the silence that comes as birds cease their song and chatter and homes be come shrines of comfort, where family life reigns after the turmoil of the vanishing day. Or a it Is something that creeps into our midst aft the air heavy and darkness silently steals over earth like thief, robbing us of sunlight and bringing langour that sends us into a deep slumber where perhaps magic is encountered. I only know that the magic of evening for me Is the time wher.

I can view diamond-like stars glow and watch the moon spill its amber gleams over the earth while dark clouds flit all over the sky, creating mystic formations that catch and hold my eyes. It seems that even my cat senses something magical as he suddenly hunches up into a queer shape and glares and spits at something quite invisible to me. Perhaps he has found the magic of the evening, that his mistress can only a and wonder about. HELEN PRODOEHL JIM'S GEMS The most important world to us, is the one in which we FIND ourselves.

MATILDA BARRY A JUNE KISS I gave you a kiss--and you returned mine, And it was sweet and full as the headiest wine, I felt your arms embrace me tenderly, yet tight. And I fought this love, with all my might, Yet with that first kiss you bound me forever, And nothing I know of, can ever sever, This feeling so new and heretofore unknown, Tho I know I can never call you my own, I'm your slave, dear, as long as I live, And my all to you, I willingly give For fate decreed I suffer like this For stealing from you that wonderful kiss.

When he Passed by to leave, he scanned the paradigm Of rows and beds; then suddenly his eyes Were bright; he spoke with new-found eagerness: too, once grew delphinium--the size Was most remarkable." Then, motionless, He gazed upon the tall, blue spikes, and I Somehow could see a garden fine and neat That he had tended; and a child--so high-Who scampered near, a puppy at his feet. When aimlessly he trudged away from view, I wondered if his eyes were misty too.
