ins the nrs, butterfly OF the season.
u looked 80 pretty IL the sunshine
It's wings were pale yellow. II almost
broken away from It's stem and was
flying around. II nuitcrcd about the
h0ncysucklc and at last settled on one
OF the sweet blossoms. Dolly came
quite near She could see that the
butterfly had a long. slender tube
where his nose would have been. II he
had nose. l. was something like an
elephants trunk. only not much larger
than a hair. The butterfly stuck this
down into the long part OF the honey
suckle blossoms. lie seemed 70 be
sucking something up through II. He
appeared 10 be enjoying 1t very much.
His wings opened and shut as II ne
were clapping his hands.
II wonder what he is doing" said
Dolly.
He Is getting his breakfast" said a
small voice near her; and a very
good breakfast II ia, too"
BY this time Dolly was quite used TO
having her questions answered almost
before she could ask them. She was
sure there must he a Fairy near, though
she could not sec one.
Look up above your head" said the
small voice.
Dolly looked UP and there, sitting on
hanging over, was one Of the prettiest
fairies she had seen. This ono wore q
sort Of drca -Coiorcd dress with trim
minGS OF r darker color. Her face was
lively, but at the same time sweet. and
Dolly noticed a very strong and sweet
perfume in all the air around the
honeysuckie vine.
'Wha, does tho butterfly get on; OF
tho flower she asked.
He gets honey. my dcar-the sweet
est and best honey ia tho world He
reaches wa down into the bloom and
sucks II up-and ne does love it. Look
how lie is waving his wings because he
is having such good time"
from asked the little girl. II have
looked and looked. and cant find their
nests anywhere. nor any bush for them
to grow OH. DO they come down out
OF tho clouds"
Look into my dewdrop, and you will
see" said the FAIRY.
II don't sec anything but cater
butterfly"
Just YOU watch him a little while
said the FAIRY
Dolly didn't care much about looking
~ anything as ugly as the caterpillar
but she had learned that very queer
things might happen IN the magic
dcwdrops and 20 she stood still and
looked.
The caterpillar crawled into Tho mid
die Of leaf and began TO behave in a
very strange manner. He seemed 10 h.

This Is purely a superficial view
Of the holly and It's meaning in the
year. II is not simply a foil. By
no manner Of means. 1t is fraught
with meaning that the fairy folk
know full well. When the winds
are raucous and the frost filters
through the interstices OF the at
mosphere, then high court is held
in fairyland and all along the
highways to the places OF the king
and queen are found the holly
bushes, blazing like meteors, and
turning the entire landscape to a
deep red glow.

WHEN HOLLY RED IS SEEN

WIEN 11OL1I NEIL 10 oEGNt
In the woods, deep mid the
brown bare branches Of the trees
and the shrubbery, where the moss
and the lichens cling to boil and
rock, the holly berries CLEAN. Be
Meath the moon, when the mysti-
cal folk of the woodlands meet in
convention to take appropriate ac-
ton for the festive days of human
delight--glad Christmas Day-'tis
said they pluck the berries Of the
holly tree and use them for Ian
terms in lieu OF the frehies on
which they rely for such service
on midsummer nights. So has the
holly much of mystery about it,
and he would be foolhardy, indeed
who would dare wander the woods
at night and seek to gather the
berries by the light of the moon.
For at such times they lose their
redness to the human view, while
they burn with brightness beyond
all belief for the tiny folk that
dance and caper across the frozen
SHOWS with crystal drops from the
choicest flakes as dazzling Jewels
adjoining their persons.
The poets have hut slight in
sight into the meaning of the holly
red that appears when the flowers
have all fallen back before its ap-
proach as the true courier Of
Christmastide. Thus Southey
beautifully, but how poorly, after
all, seeks to tell the story of the
holly:
And as when ali the Summer trees
are seen
So bright and green,
The holly leaves a sober hue display
Less bright than they;
But when the bare and wintry woods
We see,

GRATIFYING MEETING.

The large and enthusiastic meet
ing of farmers held here on Friday
last was most gratifying, and par
ticularly to those who have spent
so much time and labor in the ef-
fort to get our farmers interested
in the Tobacco Growers Associa-
ton.
1t was further gratifying to all
citizens Of the county, who are in
lerested in the future welfare and
progress Of our people. The en-
thusiasm and interest manifested
shows that the farmers Of our
county are in earnest and deter
mined to go the limit consistent
with honor and dignity to bring
about a stable and adequate mar
ket. The large attendance demon
strated that farmers Of this county
are awake to the conditions thai
face them in the marketing of Their
chief crop. The large attendance
and earnestness displayed at til,
meeting makes one feel proud tina
he is a resident OF this county.
During the recent war our boys
together with their allies, fought
bled and died for the preservation
OF democracy and humanit,
throughout the world. The caus
for which they fought was hon
orable, justifiable and noble, an
being so, all the country stood be
hind them, encouraging and CO
operating with them to the enc
until their cause was won.
The Tobacco Growers Associa
ton, which means the majority c
tobacco growers of Souther
Maryland, are now engaged in tn
cause OF self-presei walton and pre-
lection, which is an honorable an
righteous cause therefore, the tt
bacco Growers Association shout
be given the encouragement OF e,
cry farmer in this section Of Il
State, whether he be q tobacc
grower or not, as the success of II
Association means not only a stab
and adequate market for tobacc
but it means a successful mark
for other produce. Success in pr
ducing a market for our chief far
commodity, through organizatio
means better markets for all con
modities.
A soldier who refuses to folio
his flag, particularly in times
war, is rightfully termed traito
court-nartialed and shot. VIII
appellation should be appended
the farmer who will refuses to C
operate and encourage a movemei
that means The self-preservation {
himself, lis family and his people
We are not ready now to sugge
one, but certainly the recalcitrant
conscience must hurt who wi
stand idly by and hope to profit
the efforts OF his fellow men, ar
he must, indeed, feel small.
We are happy TO note that
large majority Of our farmers a
alive and awake to their interest
and appreciate the fact that if the
cause is to be won it must be.
we said in this paper some tin
ago, Now or never"
The success OF the Associate
means brighter, happier and mo
cheerful homes; it means progre
and advancement in our countr,
it means that farmers will ov
their own homes, and no longer d
pendent upon renting. These a
among the many things that shou
actuate every farmer in giving
the Association and helping to NAL
il a success.
