the books in the traveling library and a
list of manuscrtpts in the reciprocity
bureau. The club directory shows
eighty-nine clubs with an approximate
membership of 3,131, representing fifty
three towns and forty-five counties.
No club woman in Nebraska should be

last two pages are devoted to the Gen

amendments to the by-laws adopted at
Denver. A happy thought is the few
blank pages at the back for "notes."

You may read it "May" on the calendar.
You may fix your heart on spring,
But until you hear the Robin's song
You will find it's no such thing I
For he's sure just when the snow Hies,
And he knows spring's secrets all.
- You may be quite sure 'tis May-time
When you hear the robin call !
TheyTI tell you the winter's ended
You will hear it everywhere
Just for a little sunshine
And a breath of April air,
But you may be sure of one thing;
As sure as that rain will fall, .
It is really, trolly springtime
When you hear the robin call!

Nicholas.

Africa to fight the Boers."
"Simpkins is his heir, iBn't he ?" '
