MEMORY

There is, it seems, a vanished bird that sings
10 me-a beauty spot that clings
Like rainbow tints upon the whit 'nlng wall
OF memory there is a voiceless call
From the dead past, that comes i%naudible,
A joy that fits from misery, apart,
Into the confines Of the weary heart.
From the material world Of other years
Like the bright sheen OF sorrow tears.
Or silver penciling Of stormy. cloud,
Or sweeter smile that fingers when the shroud
Enwraps the lifeless form that death has bowed
70 shadowy n%ight--tle. immatcrial survives to come
Living, immortal from the dusky tomb.
Earth swccter music lives beyond the SONG
The voice grows silent but the notes prolong
Their overt0nes and; mellow from the past,
Like wayelets circlingS from a pebble cast. $500.
Into the water they proceed at last
8a4#.8 Lapsing lin music on the barren shore
lnirlS s. the music from the days of yore.
= Thus, not in vain are. joys that fade away,
Or fruits that lipen<only to decay,
On. tender flowers that bud and bloom to die
Not vainly is the gliding Of youths sky.
The sun goes down behind the western height
But memory still ilumes the shadowy night.
Sad heart, that beatcst still, forlorn Of hope,
Left all benighted through the years to g4ope,
That seest no more the myrtle boughs entwined,
But the sad cypress moaning to the wind,
Turn thou and seek the retrospect. Behind
Thy trackless way s a joy designed for thee,
The tender smile IF love and memory.

THERE ARE SOME GOOD FARMS
In Pfckens and Oconee, and Things
Arc Looking Up.
{ Easley Progress.


In company with his nephew. Jas,
White, Jr., J. w. White, of this city,
visited relatives in Oconee county
last week. They went by way Of Six
Mile, Old Pickens, New Hope and
Wolf Stake, to the home Of his bro
cher, Geo. M. White He spent seye-
raj days in Oconee Ind in the Six
Mile section Of this county, and while
travelling around took note Of the
crops. He says that he has not seen
such fine crops Of cotton and corn in
more than forty years as there are in
the Six-Mile section-corn being es-
pecially good. The crops Of Oconee
county, he says, are as good as the
lana Will make. This means much,
as Mr.. White Is very conservative
man and good farmer besides.

we visited the field one day last
week and must say that We never
saw more promising prospect. The
only thing that 1t seems now can pos
sibly prevent very large yield Is
the fact that the stand in places is
little Irregular. Mr.. Ellison has a
very nice farm. All of his crops look
wen. He has small patch Of cot
ton near his house that was planted
In alternate rows with Irish potatoes.
He has already sold from this patch
OF about one-half acre more than $50
worth OF potatoes, and the cotton is
ABOUT as good as any on the farm.
MT. Ellison also plants buckwheat for
MS bees and chickens and crimson
cloVer and COW peas for hay and to
fertilize the soil.

columbia Record.)

Following the recent widespread
complaints from housewives through
ou the entire State that drivers of
icH wagons had been defrauding
them, the department Of agriculture
this afternoon issued a circular let
ter to all of the ice companies in the
state, calling attention to the COM
plants raised and warning the COM
panies that they must equip all ice
wagons with sealed scales.
1t seems that the practice is very
general throughout the State for
drivers Of wagons to use no scales in
selling their product from the wagon.
substituting a sense Of discrimination
In cutting the ice the proper size.
This Is rather unreliable and led to
complaints from housewives that they
were being cheated in the amount of
ice delivered.
The department will see that the
law Is enforced, requiring all ice
companies TO furnish their delivery
wagons with suitable scales.
