All! it was indeed time of anx-
iety and bereavment with |
many a sweet babe fatherless an
many a widow mourning But
our women were brave-spirited
and courageous, working day and
night to feed and clothe their
families at home, and getting up
boxes of clothing and provisions
to send to the husbands, sons and
brothers, who were often freez-
ing and starving on the cold
plains of Virginia. | do not think
the history of the world can pro-
duce a similar parallel to the
tireless energy and devotion
which characterized our noble
women during four years OF war,
in which with aching hearts and
weary bodies they kept up with
dauntless spirit their loyal devo-
ton to their country.
The winter of ga found me at
school in Marlboro county, South
Carolina, boarding in the home
of an uncle. Our teacher was
Mrs. w. K. Bryan, of Fayette-
, vile, a woman of culture and
, brilliant mind, a true type OF the
old Southern lady, highly bred
| and full of patriotism. When
= winter approached, she procured
y a conveyance, rode through the
country to Halls factory, near
, Fayetteville, distance of about
n 60 miles, and purchased at a re,
duced price several blocks OF
yarn, which she brought back;
and organizing a knitting society

This word is used by people coming
to US perhaps more than under any 9TH
er conditions. The meaning of this
word is plain to US all, and when YOU
hear it you know what it means.
Something is not clear, a mist, cloudy,
smoky, shady, and as some say inky, a
little obscured. All these words are
familiar to US, they come to US in com
plants or expressions of trouble.
Brought about by poor eyesight, or as
it is usually expressed, everything has
become BLUR'D. We often make
things clear to our patrons and that we
understand this difficulty. Come and
see US.

O Darwin. you have made US sad

That we've descended from the monk

Oh why did we descend ! ask.
From heights where every prospect

Our fathers had no rent TO pay
For fats among the choicest treeses
They never cramped themselves in
skirts,
Nor choked themselves with starchy
collars:
And, strange as II may seem today.
They didn't care a cent for dollars.
They had their All OF open air.
And gayly swung from tails pre-
How useful for a subway strap
We'd find that atrophied utensil.
They had no arguments with Japs:
They had no plays to shock the

They had no--thats enough to show

Ignorance was truly bliss
TIL Darwin came and made an end

Now, knowing what we might have

We blame ourselves for e'er de-
