THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AMU NEWS. I LEM)AY. MAY 44, JWl. RELIANCE. Not to the swift. the race; Not to the etrong the tight: Not to the righteous, perfect grace; Nor to the wise, the light But often faltering feet Come surest to the goal: And they who walk In darkness meet The sunrise of the soul. A thousand times by night . The Syrian hosts have died: A thousand times the vanquished right Hath risen glorified. The truth the wise men sought Was spoken by a child; The' alabaster box was brought In trembling hands defiled. - Not from my torch, the gleam, But from the stars above; Not from my heart life's crystal stream. But from the depths of love. —Henry Van Dyke. LUNCHEON TO DR. PAfTON. Mr. and Mrs. George P. Hardy will entertain at luncheon Wednesday at their home, on Ansley circle. In honor of their kinsman.

She stands for the living type of the gal lantly fighting South that refused to recognise when It was beaten, and that continued to struggle on. In the face of the most overwhelming odds, to fight on and on and on, because It did not know the meaning of defeat. Miss Hall has never surrendered. She Is ne much of a rebel—and she glories in this term that Northerners have considered one of reproach—as she was when, as a young girl,, she shouted herself hoarse with enthusiasm when she watched tho boys In gray go marching by.. Com- g elled to see the llag of the United tales always above her, she has done, the best she could to counteract Its ef fect by Inyarlably wearing Iq her hair or her hat a tiny Confederate flag. This Hag does not obtrusively flaunt Itself. At one time It was of silk, rolled with hair; now; It Is a Confederate veteran’s badge, In the present owner ship of which one suspects a rotnanco even more pertinent and personal than that of the Confederacy proper. Who can say all that the tiny , bit of blue and red enamel stands for, as It half hides Itself In the white curls held back by the flag-clasped black ribbon? That It stands for much, or that rather the spirit actuating Its wearing stands for what the whole South rec ognises as a great deal, is a truth that is testified to by tho honors constantly paid Miss Hall. She Is the only wom an full member of a camp of Confed erate members. She marches for miles with her camp at reunions, and joins with them In the solemn funeral pro cessions, She Is the recognized custo dian of the flag, and has personally placed no less than 600 pf the silken emblems on the graves of the departed soldiers. At the reunion she is the most prized guest of honor, for the sake of entertaining whom all the celebrities vie one with the other. Wherever there Is a place of honor, there It Is insisted upon that she take her stand. Great generals bow down before her, and the men In the long tines of march cheer her lustily os she passes, grave, serene and dignified In Itersunlform of gray, tho walking skirt, the plain coat with Us brass buttons und tho campaign hat which with her close cut, crisp curls make her very like her veteran brothers. In addition to her badges, Miss Hall wears several rings valuable from their associations as well as intrinsically. Each one. tells the story of some dear one lpved and lost—one Is made from tho gold from an Idolized brother's watch, another a ring bequeathed to her almost from the battlefield, and still another more sacred still. Time the great healer hue salved over many battle wounds, but us Miss Hall fingers her rings and tells of their associa tions, one can but think that "forgot ten things stumble back strangely.' That Miss llnll will be one of > the ost Important personages at the re union which will take place in June In Richmond Is already a foregone con clusion and that she wilt be shown every attention that waa accorded one of her unique position will doubtless be done. Auguslans take much pride In the knowledge that she Is os staunch and true an Augustan ns she Is a Con federate.—Augusta Herald. MISS STEPHENS ENTERTAINS.
