fI«!lo tWn rind little girl,
W<> have seen your c harms unfurl,
WVvp seen your gowns cut In « V,
Then change In shape and sight
to C,
Tour gowns transparent as can he,
We’ve Keen them silt quite to the
> knee;
You used to wear clothes to cun
real,
You wear them now to charms
reveal.
You mince along the crowded
street.
We gaze at you with eyes discreet;
We’ve seen so much, why any
fears?
Conte, he a sport, lets see your
ears.

Tennyson’s beautiful Idyl of
Gareth and Lynette will be dra
matized by the senior class of the
North Augusta High School next
Friday evening, May Ist at 8;.10
o’clock.
The stories of those days of
eh hairy when King Arthurs'
knights went forth t«• right the
wrong, appeal to us always, and a
great pleasure will bo given those
who have opportunity to see this
presentation of Gareth and Ly
nette. The entertainment will be

Augusta Library.
The children of the Children’s
Home, who are thought of all too
rarely, had a se wing party given
tor their benefit Thursday. Mrs.
Trank Cotter every year has her
Kings, Daughters brand, the Rainbow
Circle, to meet at her home on
Monte Bano and sew for these
children. The members gathered
In the afternoon, Immediately after
dinner and sew'ed till dusk when
the afternoon en<!«*4 with a salad
slipper Last Thursclay as many of
the Circle tin could met with Mrs.
Cotter, who had previously had
several machines in the neighbor
hood moved over, and who had all
the work cut out, and for several
hours there was the hum of the
machines and the merry hum of
voices In social chat as the deft
fingers flew rapidly in and out of
the material furnished them. As
a result when the little sewing
party adjourned the older girls of
the Home were the better for
thirteen cireases which were com
pletely finished even to buttons
and buttonholes. This Is a beau
tiful thought of Mrs. Cotter, the
giving of one afternoon to se wing
for these little ones, and an idea
that could be taken up by others
if they only would spate* the time,
Just one afternoon out of an entire
year The Rairil>ow Circle is in
debted to Von Kamp, Vaughan and
Gerald and M t Kelly for the ana
terial used on tb#»e occasions, as
they alw’ays give them the rem
nants of doth, finishing braid u/id
