ING AT 10 O'CLOCK AT THE
COURTHOUSE.

A mass meeting of the farmers of
Sumter and business men of Americas
will be held at the courthouse tomor-
row morning at 10 o'clock for the pur-
pose of discussing plans for cotton
crop reduction next year Similar

in Georgia, called at the suggestion of

campaign for a greater acreage in
foodstuffs.

NOw1LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP

Eugene Fields love of childhood is
nowhere better sensed than in his
beautiful lines, Now | lay me down to
sleep" 1t was John Randolph who
said, Il have never been able to shake
off the influence of a little prayer my
mother taught me at her knee" Who
has?
The fire upon the hearth is low,
And there is stiffness everywhere,
While winged spirits here and there,
The freight shadows murmuring go,
And as the shadows round me creep,
A childish treble breaks the gloom,
And softly from the further room
Comes, Now l lay me down to sleep"
And somehow, with that little prayer,
And that sweet treble in my ears,
My thoughts go back to distant years.
And linger with the loved ones there;
And as I hear my child's Amen"
My mothers faith comes back to me.
sCrouched at her side l seem to be,
And mother holds my hand again.
Oh, for an hour in that dear place!
oh, for the peace of that dear time!
oh, for that childish trust sublime!
oh, for a glimpse of mothers face!
Yet as the shadows round me creep,
I do not seem to be alone
Sweet Maggie, of that treble tone,
And "Now I lay me down to sleep"
Eugene Field.

Brief Hints of Novel Toilets Worn by Fashions Ad
vance Guard Suggestions For Appetizing Dinners
and Teas-Short Cuts of Economy

The newest tennis skirts are made
from cotton goods. Bedford cords in
this weave, are holding their own and
so are the pique, plain or striped.
The ordinary tennis skirt is button
ed down on one side, as we all know.
but here is way of finishing even a
tennis skirt which makes it look smart.
1t may have a piped buttonhole, so
tailored that it looks as pretty as a
street suit, and the buttons would be
extremely large, for they are the
only trimming. Some of them run
down the front of the skirt to the hem,
and a patch pocket is attached to the
right hip. This, too, is finished with it's
flap top.
Such skirt would do nicely for any
outing purpose, but it has been de-
signed specially for the tennis girl.
