The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1897-10-03

that summer is drawing to a close, even to
this sunny cline Autumn, which does
not mean to us a splendor of red and gold,
Shows itself in the soft tones of color
and faint blue haze which settles over the
woods and fields as days go by. In town
there is a decided change with the schools
re5f,ef1if1g, the chattering voices OF chii-
dren going TO and fro, and people arriving
every day from pleasure trip or summer
resort. After the eXcitements and the
many discomforts of travel, the continual
packing and Unpacking and perpetual state
of unrest, there is much that is pleasant
in the home coming; for it is not every
one who has spent the summer in idling
in the country keeping wholesome hours
and gaining rest and strength for the COM
ing season. In any case there is a certain
satisfaction in getting home again, and

nothing to do is pleasant No sights 20

weight, complexion, hair and eyes at a
moments notice, but it is difiicult-espe-
cially to women-to remember their exact
number of years with the Central train
1ust pulling out. The officials are some
times startled 10 read of a woman's COM
