Y., NOVEMBER, 1909 No. 3 " When the glowing autumn days are past, And the woods stand brown against the sky, When the north wind breathes a chilling blast, Southward the birds of autumn fly! As they sing a parting strain To the music of the rain. Spring and Summer can not bring What the birds of Autumn sing! —Dora Read Goodale. NOTES Thanksgiving Time.—The month of November ought to be a particularly interesting one in rural schools. There is so much material for lessons in agriculture that have deep interest for boye and girls. Lessons given this month on the many subjects that suggest themselves would have all-around educational value. Let the children bring into the schoolroom as many different kinds of vegetables as they can find. These might be arranged on a table and give material for a study in form and color as well as an interest in the crops of the community. Fruits would give opportunity for some lessons. The native nuts would have much interest and give material for language and drawing lessons later in the year. Still other lessons might be given on the weeds of the community: the number, the most common, the kinds and num- bers of seeds. English Sparrow.—Throughout the year observations should be made on the English Sparrow since this is one of the lessons for this year
