Poem praising a young child named Vernis for her pure heart and carefree nature. The speaker notes her laughter dancing and lack of interest in fashion or gossip, saying sunshine and sorrow follow her presence. It expresses affection for a three year old and quotes J. M. Lewis from the Houston Post.
In Long Valley township Dudley Collier and James Kelsey vie for justice of the peace as John Clark enters as an independent candidate. Clarks sway undecided voters until a secret plan shifts support, leading to a dramatic vote that defeats Collier and leaves Kelsey unused.
The piece argues friendship shifts with aging, growing more noble as youth fades. It cites Coleridge and Emerson to claim lasting bonds and new ties become essential in late life, especially for the unmarried, childless, and widowed, whose mates and children partly replace friends.
The modern Sherlock investigates a vanished girl by inspecting a set of gloves. One glove was unworn, suggesting she wore an engagement ring. The note implies a personal link and a possible motive tied to an engagement.
A poem by Mrs. Cara Waterman Bronson appears in the NY Observer. The speaker contemplates meeting the divine, wrestling with self pity and love and wondering if earthly gifts suffice to please the heavenly Father. The piece frames devotion and doubt in a quiet, reflective mood.
S E Kiser writes in the Chicago Record-Herald praising the blue jay as a brightener of spring. The verse rebukes scorn for the bird while extolling its cheer and early warning of warmer days. It contrasts jaylike boldness with selfish human greed and ends by urging readers to defend the jay.
Lalla Mitchell contributes a reflective verse from Farm Journal praising spring’s breath and landscapes. The poem recalls blossoms, birds, and pastoral scenes across fields and seas, ending with a hopeful message and calming imagery.
The Washington Star reflects on life's long journey through sunshine, snow, roses, and rocks. It notes that sorrow and joy feel small against a world that must endure for a million years, and that penalties come when fortune frowns.
The speaker contrasts a hopeful vision of a nest blossoms and fruit in May with a realist view of a bare brown tree. The child insists the branches offer only switches ready to strike and notes the lack of rest or fruit. A cautious, tense mood runs through the dialogue.
A trio of verse excerpts celebrates renewal through winter turning to spring. The first reflects on endurance, hope, and a forward look despite loss. The second envisions crocuses, singing thrushes, and warming skies signaling spring. The third expresses reverent joy in blossoms and divine resurrection anticipated in daily light.
