OF INTEREST IN THE
REALM
SOMETIMES
Sometimes I ask the question.
Through misty veils of pain,
In the softened stillness,
“Shall we meet again?”
Sometimes the soothing whispers
Unfold a tale of love,
And draw the zephyrs gently
From twinkling stars above.
Sometimes I hear your footsteps,
As in the days gone by,
When evening shadows deepen
The opals of the sky.
Sometimes my spirit fancies,
When rain drops come and blow,
That sheltered neath the tree tops,
The glistening breezes glow.
Sometimes when rose leaves shatter,
And fall about the floor,
I gather up the petals
And kiss them o’er and o’er.
Sometimes I dream of heaven,
And nectar of the gods,
The fairy paths of beauty,
Where Venus nightly trods.
Sometimes I see you plainly
In the majesty of your grace,
I see you, as I know you,
I greet you face to face.
—Mary Cheatham Rawson.

, THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
“’Tis something when the day draws
to its close,
To say, ‘Though I have borne a
burdened mind,
Have tasted neither pleasure nor
repose
Yet this remains; to all men,
friend or foes,
I have been kind.’ ”

AN APPEAL FOR THE SOLDIER
BOYS
Mrs. F. E. Land, chairman of the
Red Cross work in Macon has inter
ested herself in various ways for our
soldier boys at the front and the lat
est effort is to get the women of
Georgia to make and send ‘ house
wives” to them. These articles, a sam
ple of which is on exhibit at the
Jackson Mercantile Cos., are very
handy and necessary for the conven
of the boys, the flannel case, con-
taining, needles, pins, safety pins,
buttons and sometimes scissors. In
letters to home folks, some of the
boys have mentioned the fact that
most of the troops from other states
have been provided with these ar
ticles but that the Georgia troops
have been neglected along this line.
This request comes through the El
Paso Red Cross Society. Anyone mak
ing these articles can leave them at
the Jackson Mercantile Cos., and they
will be turned over to the proper au
thorities. The ladies of Jackson will
not be neglectful in this appeal for
the soldiers.
