Our Northern friends who are visiting
the South just now, especially Marietta, are
in raptures over the sunny and beautiful
weather we have been having. While
snow and freezes and billiards. are visiting
the North and Northwest, the balmy
pleasant weather, we have had here, Just
makes this country surpass any other par
CT the habitable globe. Just enough colo
to bring frost, but nothing to retard or in
terfere with outdoor work or building ope
rations. Everything moving along in I
busy way and everybody seeming to enjoy
nature in all her outdoor lovliness to tn,
fullest extent. Why people will remain
in the freezing, blizzardly region, wher
they can come here in this lovely anC
healthy climate, is surprising to u.s.
