When the days' work is done; The little kindnesses I have shown To any one; The burdens I may have helped to bear Throughout the day. For comrades walking with me Down the way. Not one regret that I had done too much. When there was much to do. But this I know, when the long hours pass In swift review, I shall look back and wish that I had done Oh, so much more. When I turn in at evening by my door. One romance brings on another-- and this week we have two that will prove of unusual interest to Cantonians-that is, of course, if you know who they are. Our last years' head of the high school home economic department is' said to be all a-flutter over her ring which she proudly shows to any and all lookers. She sent me word in a round-about way that she had it. The boy is one Fred White, for- merly of Charlotte, N. C., but now evidently located in Atlanta as she plans to live there following her marriage. I have had two con- flicting reports on the date of the marriage—one says it will be be- fore Christmas and another quotes "Patillo" as saying “not any time soon." Which in her mind might mean not today or tomorrow and she may not even think of “before Christmas” as soon. More about this later — no doubt. Certainly this will bring forth a denial or an admission. And the other—well there's a story connected with it. I was flat- tered to receive a letter in the mail Tuesday morning from a gentleman in the Nation's capital who says that he is a weekly reader of this pa- per and this column and he sends me a bit of gossip for you. One of three Canton brothers who have all been in Washington for some time—although one was recently transferred to Boston— will take the matrimonial step sometime in November. All three brothers are of matrimonial bent as one is already married—another has been referred to in this column on several occasions as having the most serious intentions toward one of our girls—and now the other one was about to scoop us. Whether he will come down to Georgia to be married or whether he will be married there is not de- finite—at least to me. But she is well known here, having been gra- duated from the Canton High School and at one time being select- ed as "Miss Canton". I can't tell you much about her since then as I can't seem to locate her — but this is a romance of long standing. Sara Alice Boring, young daugh- ter of the Paul Borings, who will be the flower girl in the wedding in which Maxine Crisler and Char- les Johnston will have the leading roles, has found a novel way of distributing the flowers as she goes down the aisle.i She said: "I am going to wear a pretty dress and a pretty hat and carry flowers and ride my tricycle." Howard Bagwell Has Birthday Dinner Sunday Mr. Howard Bagwell celebrated his birthday Sunday with a fami- ly dinner at his home.
