Gentle zrphy-s, like gliding w»ng birds, bring The fruitions of autum n's whispering, While the grand old oak and maple fair Gracefully give their foliage rare. With sunsets’ changes comes a deepened flush, Fringing the maple with a critmon blush; Bwiftly w heeling with echoing cries Tito night bird siguals when summer dies. Across upland meadow the settin g sun Shows division lines where the old walls run; Here oaken lover and maple maid Drank deep of dew on the grasttes laid. Ever fading is life’s autumnal tint. Through memory’s halls the moou beams glirvt; The grand old trees a requiem sing A quiet radiance over everything. - George llerriott in Boston Courier. T h e B o lte r .
