R e | MUSIC IN THE PARK. Marietta is a summer-home city—not a “resort’’—and the band that plays in the park on these beautiful nights is composed of native musicians. They are playing for homefolks, and the sweetness of their notes could not be equalled by any imported graduates of foreign musical conservatories. As the moon comes up or the electric buds blossom into light, the band be gins to play, and people come from all directions to sit on the benches under the trees and enjoy the music; also the pleasant breezes and that homey comfort a 8 when uall the family crowds around the piano, keeping time to the song or joining in the chorus. No matter how strenuous the day’s work has been, how fierce the heat, or how difficult of solution the various problems presented, when the sun goes down there comes the gentler side of all things, and even the insistent katy-dids do not annoy nor the shy crickets sad den us. Bt a brass band in the park! When it begins to play, we are all children again, and life once more has gone a Maying. : . *“And the night shall be fil'ed with music, | And the cares that infesi the day Shall fold their tente like the Arabs i And as silently steal away,” . i ¢ * * Between the music and the voices of the sutos gliding about with their big. bright eyes staring straight ahead, and their pace of hunting hounds, con versation becomes almost a lost art. Moonlight and are lights both sug gest the summer climes, and no matter from what lofty peak of a topie conver sation may take flight, is it not sure to desecend into the kitchen where either our natural enemy or our dearest friend presides?
