We are glad that Sunday was
another pretty day, after the rain
■last week.
If the rainy weather continues,
the farmers will get a late start in
farming again, like last year. If
this year is a crop year like last
year, I guess everybody will
starve.

FAR FROM HOME.
i FRANK L. STANTON IN ATLANTA CONSTITUTION. j'
I.
Still lookin’ down the distance with the longin’
in her eyes,
An’ I know that she’s a-dreamin’ of the light of
Georgy skies;
Dunno how to cheer her —dunno what to say,
But the heart of her I’m readin’ when her eyes,
they look that way.
11.
“Ain’t this here, too, God’s country, a-smilin*
’round us so?
Are the roses any different from the ones we
used to know?
An’ don’t the birds make music?” But she says
—contrary one! —
“They ain’t the Georgy mockin’birds a-singin*
in tne sun!”
111.
How kin a fellow prosper an’ hive Life’s honey
comb
Here, in this newer country, when a woman’s
heart’s back home?
When she’s alius breamin' —dreaming of the far
off vales an’ hills,
The sunshine on the meadows, the lull-song of
the rills?
IV.
Forever an’ forever —winter time an’ May,
The dear, bright, dreatnin’ eyes of her are turned
the Georgy way;
An’ I reckon, ’fore I know it, we’ll be packin'
from this place,
An’ I’ll see a Georgy inornin’ a-smilin’ in her
face.
