Ahere was regular houseful OF
Dawsons In the little, low, red house
which stood all by itself on the edge
OF the village; there were six children
VINO called the little house their home
ana six noisier. happier, heartier chill
aren were never known. There were
the twins, Fred and Frank, who head
ed the list, and then there were Grace
ana Nellie and Harry, and last of all
came Minnie, the baby. the tiniest and
noisiest Of them all.
mere were great plans afoot today
IN the curly heads of the merry crowd.
tomorrow would be Decoration Day,
and were not the four Oldest of the
young Dawsons to march in the long
procession OF school children and carry
gariands and bouquets of flowers to
strew on the graves of our soldier
heroes? There were the flowers to
hunt In the woods, for the Dawson
mower garden showed only two flaming
red and yellow tulips and a few fra
grant liiacs as A. offering to the chill
oren. But that fat troubled them not
shSy were only 700 RiaQ OF an
excuse for spending a long, delightful
day In the woods. There would be the
gariands to make and bouquets to ar
range and pieces" to rehearse and a
thousand and one other things to do:
SO 1t was no wonder that all the little
Dawsons We're up and flying around as
busy as bees at an exceedingly early
hour. Even the baby was interested
and toddled around tipping over every
thing she could and getting into
eyeryone's way.
so much hustle and hustle made
them little bit cross, perhaps, and so
II turned out that there was a slight
disagreement between Grace and Nell
lie and the twins early In the MORN
ing. and as each side added fuel to the
names. In the shape of sharp words
and angry frowns, by the time they
were ready to start for the woods the
quarrel had grown to be something
serious. The boys had been very pro-
Voking, and the girls were so angry
With them that they decided to take
ne lunch basket and hurry away

The Good Old War .yons.,.

The late war with Spain has aroused
fresh fervor of patriotism in the
length and breadth of our country, but
it has given us no war songs, which
will take the place Of the old ones.
Forever fresh in the hearts of us all
will remain Marching Through Geor-
gia." We will sing 1t a long time
after "A Hot Time" has been relegated
to the lumber room of the mind. That
song has made Its mark upon our land.
The heroes Of the sixties marched
through the valley of death into Geor-

undying love OF their countrymen;
surely that was worthy compensation
