fashioned picnic, a whole day in thc j ‘ —
woods with a basket dinner and no
red-bugs. What a memory that
brings to mind—the picnic we "chil-
lun" used to lock forward to—along
about the first of May. Weeks and
weeks before hand—wc would plan.
And wc would hope a*rd pray that it
varn't too cool to wear a new ging
ham frock with elbow sleeves. And
we always had a picnic hat—a wide
brim ten cent hat from the stores
that always kept a supply—like they
did palmetto fans. Then—we would
get a half yard of solid color calico
—that would match the nicest color
in our new dress—and bind that hat
all arcund and put a band and a
perky bow to the left side—and
were we dressed up? It was usually
a Sunday Schol picnic and every
day school “turned out" fer us to
go. We would meet around seven-
thirty nr eight o’clock at the church I
and there “pile into" the wagons
waiting to take us—maybe five or
six miles. Time was too precious to
waste too much of it riding in a
wagon when we wanted to be out
at the picnic grounds.
1 can hardly see how the weather
could have changed as it has since
I was a kid—it must be that it is
trying to keep up with the times—
and has to get a little faster everv
year, for the wild honeysuckle and
violets were always in full bloom
arcund May first—and now—here it
is April the middle—ar.d all of them
gone already.
What a wonderful time it was. And
how tired and how happ> we all
were when around good dark we
would climb out of that wagon with
an armful of honeysuckles, a hand-
chief fuil of sweetshrubs and a skin
full of red-bugs. But what did we
care? It had been a glorious picnic,
and we had had fun.
My friends will be telling me it is
a sign of old age to be living in the
past—but I guess there is no harm
to remember what a good time you
had ‘.hen. But—the present just will
bring back most important things
—**or instance—another grand-kid
joke. Martha (five years old) was
“plajing the piano” recently. Moth
er cam' 1 by and said—“Well-Martha.
I will just have to teach you to plnv
the p»aro—we’ll start real soon.”
To which Martha replied—"Oh—I j
can play all right—I just can’t make
thc notes round right." Which is
probably
attending the meeting of the Georgia
Education Association in Macon last
Thursday and Friday came home
and spent the week-end. Of course
their relatives and friends here
gave them a most cordial welcome.
It is reported that the Military
[ officers here Iasi Thursday and Fri
day to inspect the Georgia Military
College for honor school rating were
most favorably impressed, as the
cadet battalion made a most ex
cellent showing and passed through
thc ordeal with flying cologs. It
is said that the officers while not
indicating in any way what their
decision would be took occasion to
speak highly of the efficiency shown
in several porblems of the inspec
tion.
