Her thoughts are wandering far atSty
In the land of Long Ago.
Again she dN ell in her fathers home.
And before her loving eyes
In the light Of the glorious summer day
The gray old farmhouse lies
She hears the hum Of the spinning-whee
And the spinners happy song;
She sees the bundles Of fax that hang
From the rafters dark and long;
She sees the sunbeams glide and dance
Across the sanded floor;
The shouts of the reapers sound faint and far
From the fields Of golden grain
And grandma herself, happy girl
Stands watching the setting sun,
While the spnners rest and the reapers cease,
And the long days work is done;
Then something wakes her-he room is dark,
And vanished the sunset glow;
And grandmother wakes with a sad surprise,

has been fixed for September 1925,
the members Of Camp Walthall are
bestirring themselves to secure suf-
ficient funds for proper entertain
ment of their comrades of the vast
army of heroes who wore the Gray.
To play host to such band of he
roes is acknowledged by all here to
be an honor we'll worth approaching.
In order that the few of the faithful
now remaining may be properly en-
tertained the citizens must give Camp
Walthall their assistance, both in
funds and otherwise. Committees
have been named to solicit funds and
these are going about the work sys-
tematically. How well they have sue
ceeded has not yet been made known.

A very pleasing addition to the gath
ering of Mississippi Veterans will be
the reunion of the survivors of Wal

that ever faced foemen. That the Bri-
gade will meet with the state associa
! ton is assured by the following re

is self-explanatory:

There are about one thousand SUI

Some are in Texas, Alabama, Georgia
Louisiana, and other states, and it
confidently expected these will be i
