The Shadow of the Unknown.

Did YOU ever notice how on beauti-
full sunny day. when all the birds are
singing, it will happen that cloud will
pass across the face of jolly, round.
bright Mr.. Sun, casting a great shadow
on the earth? And. how when that
hadow passes over them the birds will
stop singing? Somehow a shadow like
that seems to kill joyousness of the
heart As soon as it has passed joy
returns once more.
1t was as if just such a great shadow
lay over the Green Meadows, the Old
Pasture, the Green Forest, the Old Or
chard and the Smiling Pool. TIVE days
were beautiful, but mono Of the little
people saw the beauty of them. There
was no happiness So far as they could

Lightfoot the Deer knew no peace.
Prickly Porky the Porcupine, who as
rule fears nothing and nobody, was
strangely nervous.
1t was all because of that strange.
giant bird which had first frightened
Redtaii the Hawk and then BIacky
the Crow. No one had ever heard of
such a bird, and the humming of it as
it flew had filled with terror all who
heard it. Whenever they could the
little people got together and talked it
over. They talked in whispers, looking
up fearfully as they talked. 1t wasn't
the size of this fearful giant SO much as
the fact that no one knew anything
about it. You know it is the things
that we know nothing about that fright
en- us most Imagination makes them
worse than they really are. So far
this giant bird had hurt no one. 1t
had been as harmless as or Mistah Buzz
card himself. But no one felt sure that
it would always remain SO. No one
could believe that one SO big and swift
of wing was not to be feared
So the shadow Of the unknown lay
over the Green Forest and the Green
Meadows during those beautiful fall
days. Only at night was there freedom
from it. It came about that those who
can hunt by day or night did all their

There was no mistaking in ColHm-
bia this morning at { O'Clock that reg
istration day had begun. Every church
bell and every factory and loc ,mo-
tive whistle in the city was sounded
with all the vigor possible as Tile
hands Of the courthouse clock pointed
to the hour, and Immediately the reg.
istraton began. Long lines of men
and boys were waiting at the regis
tration tables to put their signatures
to the cards that will place them on
the nations roll of available soldiers.
Some were there early because they
desired to register before beginning
their days work. Others were there
early becaues they wanted to have
the distinction of being among the
first to register All were there With
the high spirit of patriotism that is
going to win this war.
From the moment the orchestra
of bells and Whistles sounded and
aroused the patriotic emotions of the
populace the registration proceeded
rapidly and with precision at every
voting precinct in the county. The
official estimate of the number 10 lie
registerd in Maury county today is
1897, but officials OF the Local Board
expressed the opinion that they would
not be surprised if that number is
exceeded. 1t is certainty that every
man and boy required to register will!

will be no "slackers" in this county.

duty long before the closing hour Of
9 O'Clock tonight. In the city it is
possible that there will be heavy
registration during the closing hours.
At 6 o'clock the Local Board will
report by wire to Maj. Rutledge Smith
