srralv. May is queen of the months, and
,.o,cislly so this year. In Savannah, as in
o,bsr cities, the month of May is the bright
...son in which people Of fashion can ex-
hibis their fresh, beautiful spring gowns
and walk the streets and through the lovely
n,rK and feel the influence Of the gorgeous
n,orth. It would seem as if everybody
ought to be cheerful during May; for when
h.vs we had such mornings and evenings
a, during this month! Did you ever stop
=, think that good beginning is always
host for the days works A few pleasant
md cheerful words, especially at the family
BREAKFAST table, will often prove of more
canine good to those around US, than ia
efrsn realized. How much better such a
hsginning than to start new day by CALI
Inc nm all the unpleasantness and woes of
The dsy before! Wives and mothers do this
thing too often, and husbands aud children
On forth to work in a turmoil Of spirit, and
steir unrest is passed on to others, and the
Tbole day is one of restlessness and
"vexstlon Of spirit " Keep the domestic trials
until later if you must tell them to others.
But don't keep back the sunny words and
cheerful encoursgementS; every one is en-
titled to a bright and cheerful beginning of
days work.
Savannah has had no lack Of brass-button
display in the past two weeks. The air, TOO
has been filed with music from the bands.
No sooner had the warships, with their off,
GERS aud crews, sailed away when in came
the Knights of Pythias in their gay uni-
forms aud brilliant plumes. A fine showing
they made, too. In the great parade there
were over 900 men in line. The drills on
the parade ground we're witnessed by hum
dreds Of people, Everything was done by
tae Savannah lodges to give the visiting
knights good time, and they succeeded.
"a perfect success, lone of the loveliest
pcnics ever given aud many more such
expressions have been heard on all sides
relative to the club-german, the last Of this
season, held at Tybee on last
Tuesday evening. The special train
the club and their invited guests, left the
Tybee station at 6:45 .. m. You see, it was
s'basket affair. " and there is always more
iDformality and good humor about such
trips than any other. No wonder. then, that
that special train carried a gay aud happy
party TO the island. Everybody looked we'll,
aud being ION pleasure bent" had a good
time. What matters it if the moon was a
little late3 or course, it was a moon
light picnic, but the moon was
minor consideration. There was
plenty Of brightness" without it.
The dancing took place in the large pa
vilion at Furber's Point. Cobb's orchestra
