Special Poem

Mrs. Doris Stephenson had a special poem in her pocket today. It was one she had written back when she was in third grade. Here's the first stanza:

I am a tiny little thing
Always coming in the spring
My stalk is covered flat
With a white and yellow hat


Miss Doris remembers that her grandma helped her write this poem for a contest sponsored by the Junior Women's Club. She is proud to say that she won first place and received $3.00!
(Which was a good prize back in the good old days!)
