As there are amateur papers, there are also amateur printers. As a rule, these printers do good work for a much less price than professional printers charge. Perhaps the cheapest amateur printer is M. R. King, of Cobleskill, N. Y. Mr. King will print 500 copies of a paper, size page of HARPER'S MAGAZINE, for $1 per page. The National Amateur Press Association convenes at Chicago July 16-18. The ticket below is the one favored most by the Pacific coast: For President, David L. Hollub, of San Francisco; for First Vice-President, C. W. Kissinger, of Reading, Pa.; for Recording Secretary, A. E. Barnard, of Chicago, Ill.; for Corresponding Secretary, E. A. Hering, of Seattle, Wash.; for Treasurer, Alson Brubaker, of Fargo, N. D.; for Official Editor, Will Hancock, of Fargo, N. D.; for Executive Judges, C. R. Burger, Miss E. L. Hauck, and J. F. Morton, Jun. The Pacific coast is the most active amateur centre in the world. There are thirty-four amateur papers in San Francisco. Seattle has a live amateur press club of thirty members. I shall be glad to send sample copies of amateur papers and to give further information. EDWARD LIND. Kinks. No. 89.--AN ARBORET FROM THE POETS. FOR SPRING-TIME. 1. "Swelled with new life the darkening ---- on high Prints her thick buds against the spotted sky." 2. "On all her boughs the stately ---- cleaves The gummy shroud that wraps her embryo leaves." 3. "Far away from their native air The ---- ---- their green dress wear; And ---- swing their long, loose hair." 4. "The ---- spread their palms like holy men in prayer." 5. "The wild ---- ---- waste their fragrant stores In leafy islands walled with madrepores And lapped in Orient seas, When all their feathery palms toss, plume-like, in the breeze." 6. "Give to Northern winds the ---- ---- on our banner's tattered field." 7. "The ---- dreamy Titans roused from sleep-- Answer with mighty voices, deep on deep Of wakened foliage surging like a sea." 8. "The ---- ----, tall and bland, The ancient ----, austere and grand." 9. "The ----'s whistling lashes, wrung By the wild winds of gusty March." 10. "Take what she gives, her ----'s tall stem, Her ---- with hanging spray; She wears her mountain diadem Still in her own proud way." 11. "Look on the forests' ancient kings, The ----'s towering pride." 12. "O ---- ----. O ---- ----! How faithful are thy branches! Green not alone in summer-time, But in the winter's frost and rime!" Fill blanks with names of trees, and give the authors. Answers to Kinks. No. 87.--Book-worm--Bookworm. * * * * *
