tired of planning and toiing
In the crowded hives of men;
Heart weary of building spelling,
And spelling and building again.
And long for the dear old river
Where l dreamed my youth away;
For dreamer lives forever;
And a toiler dies in a day.
sick of the snowy seeming
OF life that is half lie;
OF the faces lined with schemng,
In the throng that hurTies by.
From the sleepless thoughts endeavor
would go where the children play;
For dreamer lives forever
And a toier dies in day.
l can feel no pride but pity,
For the burden the rich endure;
There is nothing sweet in the city
But the patient lives of the poor.
oh, the little hands too skillful,
And the child mind choked with weeds!
The daughters heart grown willful,
And the fathers heart that bleeds!
No, no! From the streets rude hustle,
From trophies of mart and stage,
would fly to the woods low rustic
And the meadows kindly page.
Let dream of old by the river,
And be loved for the dream Away;
For dreamer lives forever,
And toiler dies in day.

DELIGHTFUL
SOCIAL FUNCTION.

The Gap has been much en-
livened lately by the various
social functions which have
been given in honor of former
residents who have come back
TO once again enjoy the beauti-
ful Virginia spring
One Of the prettiest of these
affairs was the tea given last
FRIDAY afternoon by Mrs. ~. E.
Goodloe, in honor Of her guest,
Mrs. Ii. l.. Moore, of Chatta
nooga. The arches between the
rooms were curtained in wild
locust, mantcls were banked
in spruce and queens lace,
while masses of pink roses and
weigela frightened the rooms.
THE guests were received in the
library by Mrs Goodloc and
Mrs. Moore, assisted by Mrs. ID.
b Wentz, of Philadelphia.
Punch was served in the hall
by Misses Margaret Petit and
Louise Goodloe. The dining
room, which was beautifully
decorated in carnations. was in
charge of Mesdames II. b. Al
scver, w. G Painter aud w. r..
Goodloe, while the tea was
poured by Mrs. Il. r. Irvine.
Delicious sandwiches accom-
panied this course, while ice
cream, cakes, bon bons and
nuts were also enjoyed
During the afternoon an in
formal musical program was
rendered Ivy Mrs j II. Mnth
ews, Mrs /. @. Petit and Miss
Elizabeth Polly. Much of the
success of the affair was due 60
ths. efforts Of Mrs. Horace Fox
and Mrs L. O. Petit, who us-
sisted in the entertainments of
the guests
AS those who enjoyed Mrs.
Goodloe's hospitality departed
many were heard To express a
wish that many more such re-
unions may he enjoyed in the
near future.

ELECTION OF
SUPERVISORS.

The most important county
Office for the next four years
will be that of supervisor. Four
of these men will be elected this
fall from the four magisterial
districts OF tho county. Their
duties and responsibilities,
among other things, will include
the expenditure of 800, 900 on
good roads.
The biggest thing that Wise
county has ever attempted
surely calls for the biggest men
in the county In constructive
and executive ability, in bust
ness training and foresight, in
integrity, public spirit and
broad patriotism, they should
average with the best brains,
character and capacity that
the county affords. This much
is suid without reflection on the
present board of Supervisors.
They have wrought we'll and
deserve all credit. If, however,
they do not measure up To every
one OF the above qualifications,
they are to that extent disqual
flied For recollection.
1t in difficult matter to pick
men who are fitted in every re.
spect for this Office and get
them to accept. AS n rule, they
are mon whose time is valuable.
The office of supervisor pays
little aud is, more or less, "A
thankless Job. But the public
welfare. and therefore the indi-
vidunl welfare, of every citizen
of the county is at stake, and
suitable men for supervisor
must be found and elected
even if the different towns and
commercial bodies within the
towns, and the country as well
have TO bring the very strongest
pressure to bear on these men
IN order to induce them Go
accept the place. If it entail n
financial sacrifice on thoir part,
let funds be raieed by private
subscription 70 supplement
the Office already pays.
This in one case in which the
petty politician and party man
should be kicked down stairs
aud made to understand that he
is not needed. There ought not
to be, however, any objection
to giving the republicans
majority representation on the
Board, provided suitable men
cun be found to accept The
county, according to latest re-
turns, il republican, and every
fair minded democrat will yield
this courtesy. But first and
foremost are the men them
selves. Their politics is q mat
ter of secondary Importance,
and hardly that, Norton Free
Press.
The Post heartily endorses
the above editorial. The people
of Wise county should see to il
that n good board of supervisors
is elected this fall

pennies are piling up already.
We shall give the result of the
counting each week at the last
possible moment before the

TO be elected Queen of this

great compliment to the for

Queens bridesmaids are also

Brothers will have their auto

chimes in town will, of course,
be entered.
1t has been suggested that
the business men Of the town
have floats, also which would
be n decided addition.
y number of our citizens de-
serve honorary mention this
week in this column. First, we
have observed with pleasure
the result of w. S. Roses grad

has improved the appearance
of his property.

Another greatly appreciated
Improvement is the placing of
fine wire screens in the Bakery
windows to prevent flies from
