NOMINATION OF OFFICERS 333 



Though Bobby was tired and ready for bed as soon as he had 

 finished his evening meal, he was wiUing enough to listen to this bit 

 of poetry by Helena Jelliff e which I was fortunate to find before he 

 fell asleep. 



The clovers have no time to play, 

 They feed the cows and make the hay, 

 And trim the lawns and help the bees. 

 Until the sun sinks through the trees. 

 And then they lay aside their cares; 

 And fold their hands to say their prayers. 

 And drop their tired little heads 

 And go to sleep in clover beds. 

 Then when the day dawns clear and blue 

 They wake and wash their hands in dew; 

 And as the sun climbs up the sky. 

 They hold them up and let them dry; 

 And then to work the whole long day; 

 For clovers have no time to play. 



Nomination of Officers 



The following officers are to be elected at the meeting of the 

 American Nature-Study Society to be held in Chicago, December 

 28th, 1920: 



President 



Five Vice-Presidents 



Five Directors to act for three years 



Nominations of persons to fill these offices should be sent before 

 December 20th to the editor of the Nature Study Review. 

 While we have no desire to "steer" the elections of officers of our 

 Society, we feel impelled to state that Professor J. Andrew Drushel 

 has proven himself such an enterprising and excellent executive 

 during the past year that it is manifestly for the best interest of 

 everybody except himself that he be re-elected for the coming year. 



Anna Botsford Comstock, 



Secretary-Editor.
