NEWS 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. Albany, Ga. , 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.’ ” PHILLIPS-HOPKINS An announcement of much intei*- est to friends in Jackson is the en gagement of Dr. Linton B.

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.
