Meetings-People Going
and Coming.

Whitmire, Aug. 21.-The boys
and girls of the younger set planned
a moonlight picnic out at Black
Rock last Friday evening, in honor
of the visitors in town. Dark clouds
covered the sky, the rain fell in tor
rents, the moon hid her lovely face
and the clouds failed to show silver
I lining; but difficulties like these do
not dampen the ardor of youth or
cause them to give up an anticipated
pleasure. So they all met with Miss
Dorothy Watson in her home, played
games, sang over the pretty new war
songs and old time love songs and
enjoyed the nice lunch from the din
ing room table.
