the same square. There is already a
shade tree ON his lot, the value of which
would be hard to estimate.
The Bazaar was a Success.
The Military Bazaar closed on Satur-
day in a 'blaze of glory.p The feast OF
good things had been well prepared
and were tactfully and tastefully served
The attendance was large and those
i'm attendance were liberal. The most
spirited contests were witnessed when
beauty and popularity were to be decid'
ed. Miss James, Of the Normal School,
won as the most beautiful Of our girls
and Miss Bessie Martin, as the most
popular. 1t cost something to vote IN
this contest, but what young man hesi-
tates to spend money when he hopes
to buy with it a crown for the best
grip"
Our military boys are richer by soOO
as a result Of the Bazaar, and our hope
is that they will enjoy every cent Of it
i'm pleasant and healthful diversion,
and so become the stronger for the dis
charge Of duties devolying upon them
as Virginia volunteers.
But for the ladies Of Farmville there
would have been no bazaar, and but
for the ladies Of Farmville, we would
move to some town, where their pre-
sence brighten and bless human life.
There was not an uninteresting fea-
ture of the Bazaar from opening hour
TO closing. but by common consent the
Trades Drill was the "bright particular
star" Of the galaxy Of glorious things
Miss Kate Verser commanded the
fair forces with the skill of a trained
soldier in happy combination with the
added graces Of true womanhood.
Dry goods and groceries, hardware
and hats, drugs and dresses, candies ana
calicoes, shoes and syrups, products
from u own plants and Of other places
were never more %attractively presented
to the purchasing public.
The Herald has ever been making
ifs best bow to its readers through the
weeks Of many years now gone, but
never before in all Its history did II so
WOO and win. as when its colors were
in the keeping Of Miss Lorelle Duncan
who bore them. with more than the
prowes, of a Knight Of chivalry's best
day in happy harmony with-the WIN
some charms Of a daughter Of the sun
ny South in this day.
