A DAY IN EARLY NOVEMBER.

"A DAY in EARLY NON EMBEh.
In the early morning, the sky hid
den by low hanging clouds, gray. A
brisk southeast wind, chilly, damp and
penetrating. Dead leaves scurrying
noisily before the wind like a thing
alive, as if pursued, and finding lodg-
ment in roadside bitches and in fence
corners, piling themselves up in huge
windrOws. The long, dry road, and
the thick clouds of fine dust stirred
up by every passing motor car. The
sudden, startled flight of flock of
small birds, disturbed at their morn
ing meal in thickly grown weed
patches. High overhead, great tiOcks
of crows, silhouetted in black against
the gray clouds, fastening lumber
ingly to some crow rendezvous. A lit
tie rabbit wildly plunging through the
weeds and underbrush, fearing he
knows not what, his white rump

dry corn stalks, stirred by the breeze.
Shocks of corn standing, sentinel

carpet in the forest, soft deep, yield

which arises the alluring fragrance
of freshly dried leaves. Booming of
hunters guns in the distance. Trees
shaken by the wind and recovering

their naked branches. AS the day
