To the Dreamers of 5ongs,
?Tla not for tho beauty of slnglng
I'd like you remember lt long,
For the leaflot of vorso I'm bringlng
Has only tho aemblance of songl
But treat It not eoldiy nor cruel
A gllmpso of the moaning ls shown,
As the llght of an cxqulslto Jowel,
Ib aeen ln a covorlng of stone.
For the sake of your song tho morning
Ia brlghter, and dearer the day
Seems ever wlth pleasure adornlng,
The world in a cheeriel- way;
For sweet Is the thought of tho slnglng,
Of ono that ls glfted wlth songl'
Whon muslcal momehts aro wlnging
To tho hours that never seeru long.
You are seon ln the freshness of
flowers,
And heard In tho carol of blrds,
And you brlghtcn llfe's dosolate hours,
Wlth tho maglcal musle of words;
For you live wlth a gentleness glven
From one who ls Inflnlto Htrong,
To grre to the llving a heaven
In the love and tho sweotness of song,
?Joseph XV. Humphrios In tho AUanta
Constltution.

To a certaln extcnt a horetoforo ln
visable rule of tho "summor resorts" has
