times been compared with the devel-
oped matron. The rosebush represents
the sturdy man who stands erect
harmless until the attempt is made to
pluck his flower. OF no other flower
has it been said:
"You may break, you may shatter
the vase if you will,
But the scent of the roses will hang
round it STILL"
Do you remember this comparison ?
As in a garden lone strolled
At the close of Autumn day
This Rose reminds me of my love,
With summer gone away
Its hue is like her sweet red lips
As velvet soft her cheek.
Its tall and stately gracefulness
Her dignity bespeak.
It's leaves are like the many deeds,
She scatters far and near,
To fill with green luxurance
The lives that else were bare.
It's thorns, ali me, she has no thorns
To wound loving heart;
But in all else my Peerless Rose
She is the counterpart"
Tennessee is just naturally the Rose
State of the union, and the Rose
should be our State Flower

Judging from her letter, the mis-

As an emergency remedy in the

hospitals selected by the government
to which they could send wounded
soldiers. The present hospital with
