    It is not always May— (Excuse this repetition !) The season when the Maypole’s u in,” And tadpoles, too, when mayflies spin, And maydew’s in condition. It is not always May— ’Tis May the Third less often ! Still less the chance we have to-day To help sick children on their way, Their youth’s hard lot to soften ! Arthur A. Sykes (Z. Y. X.).
