NEWS OF INTEREST IN THE SOCIAL REALM DEPARTURE Oh, why are you shining so bright, big sun, And why is the garden so gray? Do you know that my days of delight are done, Do you know I am going away? If you covered your face with a cloud, I’d dream You were sorry for me in my pain, And the heavily drooping flowers would seem To be weeping with me in the rain. But why is your head so low r , sweet heart, And why are your eyes overcast? Are you crying because you know we must part; Do you think this embrace is our last? Then kiss me again, and again and again, Book up as you bid me good-bye! For your face is too dear for the stain of a tear, And your smile is the sun in my sky. —Henry Van Dyke. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Might we not all resolve that every day we will do at least one act of kindness? Let us write a letter in such terms that the post will bring pleasure to some house; make a call so some friend will know that he has been in our heart; send a gift on some one’s birthday, marriage day, or any other day we can invent. Let us make children glad with things that they long for and can’t obtain. And many other things which we could do if we had eyes to see and a heart to feel and had the will to take some trouble.—lan Maclaren.

Ellen Wiison Memorial Fund Letters have been received by the patriotic societies of the city, from Mrs. W. S. Elkin, of At lanta, who is administrative chair man of the Ellen Wilson Memo rial and is working interestingly in its behalf. The memorial will ta/ce the form of an endowment fund, the interest of which will be used in educating boys and girls of the mountains, who have poor chances to obtain an educa tion. The women of Georgia feel interested in this work and the Ellen Wilson memorial associa tion has been incorporated under the laws of Georgia and the trust funds will be wisely used.
