It was any Ipiivilege some years ago,' during the :Spring, 'Summer and Fall seasons to take an 18 mule trip on week 'days th augh the distriet et out from Auburn. Those short journeys will never be forgotten. The beauties of nature as seen, on those short journeys could never leave any doubt in a persons mind that there was . a 1 God who eared for us and who. tried to make the world as wonderful, beautiful and enjoyable for is as it a was possible to make it. If tit, -is ,possible for us to get to the woods how 'eagerly we look for• n ward to gathering n g the different i species of •spring flowers. If we we live in the city it is with great pleas- ure that we open a 'box which has been kindly sent.•and therein find the early flowers from' the garden er woods. One of the most beautiful of the flowers from the woods is the trillium which in, the 'last decade or so has been chosen as the Emblem of the Province of Ontario. This beaxutiful flower towers above the other flowers which make their home in the woods.. It belongs to the ily family and as other members of that branoh it is stately and regal, and yet there is 'something humble bout it, It lives among the other plants and is very individual. It interfered with one ofits n' m os n '• x and that glib t t.wa y s •more capable of doing its work 1l. There is no. discord: What a FLASH!
