Side 22 - Strange we never prize the music Till the sweet-voiced bird has flown ; Strange that we should slight the violets. Till the lovely flowers are gone ; Strange that Summer skies and sunshine Never seem one-half so fair, As when Winter's snowy pinions Shake the white down in the air!
Side 2 - The work of girls will be judged more leniently than that of boj-s, and the Inspector may examine scholars in the work of any Standard lower than that in which they, are presented, and in mental arithmetic suitable to their respective Standards.
