the war department may not have
been as efficient as il should have been,
in equipping, feeding and moving troops

effects of a tropical elm tie in midsum-

only wonder il that so many have es-
capped ills which the best Of care cannot
wholly avert. The summer in Florida
has been the hottest for twenty-five
years, and the strain upon northern con-
situations was naturally very great. In
Cuba, as all know, summer IL the sickly

Matrimonial Exports.

In the early days Of Virginia, when
the Adventures were mostly unmarried
men, it was deemed necessary to export
such women as could be prevailed upon
to leave England rs wives for the plant
ers. A letter accompanying one Of the
matrimonial ships, dated London, Aug.
~. 1921, says:
I'VE send you in the ship a widow
and II maids as wives for the people
Of Virginia. There hath been especial
care taken in the choice Of them. for
there hath not one Of them been receiv.
ed but upon good recommendations.
There are so more that are ready to go.
For the Ieimbursing Of charges it is or
dered that every man that marries them
give 100 pounds of best leaf tobacco for
each Of them"

The next festival TO notice Is lawn
party which came off at Edgar Morgan's
last Saturday evening. Not being pres
ent we cannot enter into details, but
report says there were more than hun
dred people present, supper good
enough for an epicure for all who wish
ed to replenish the inner man, and vari-
Gus kinds Of games played. The fact
that some OF the young craft did not
reach home until II had been Sunday for
an hour, indicates that the time did not
drag heavily on their hands.
The warm weather has driven the sweet
corn along so that the factory, although
running early and late, can hardly keep

Sitting In the front door last evening,

bills, we could almost imagine It was
july instead OF September. But looking
ut the forests by daylight, their color
presents a lighter green, and some Of the
naples have already put on crimson
hue.

they inferred they were not the kind

having found sixty odd trees containing
more or less honey. He takes five news
