OLD OCTOBER,
j*
JAMES WH1TOOMB RILEY
Old October's purt' nigh gone,
And the frosts is comin' on
Little heavier every day —
Like our hearts is thatawav!
Leaves is changin' overhead
Back from green to gray and red,
Brown and yeller, with their stems
Loosenin' on the oaks and elms;
And the balance of the trees
Gettin' balder every breeze—
Ijifce the heads we're scratchin' on!
Old October's purt' nigh gone.
I love old October so,
I can't bear to see her go—
Seem8 to me like losirf some
Old home relative er chum—
'Pears to me like settin' by
Some old friend 'at sigh by sigh
Was a passin' out of sight
Into everlastin' night!
Hickernuts a feller hears
Rattlin' down is more like tears
Drappin' on the leaves below—
I love old October so!
Can't tell what it is about
Old October knocks me out!—
I sleep well enough at night—
And the blamedest appetite
Ever mortal man possessed—
Last thing et, it tastes the best!—
Walnuts, butternuts, pawpaws,
'lies and limbers up my jaws
Per raal service, such as new
Fo-k, spareribs, and sausage, too—
^ et, fer all, they's soniepin' 'bout
Old October knocks me out!

We hate to say anything

more racket than a herd of
stampeded cattle.
The pie supper at the High
School Auditorium last Friday
night certainly was a success.

AT THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH SUNDAY NIGHT, 7:30
The subect to be discussed Sunday evening at the
Christian church is, "The Prodigal Son," and I am very
anxious that every father and mother be present with
their children.
I shall speak of the mother's influence in the home,
and 1 trust that all the young people of the town will
come and hear this beautiful story as related by our
Master. * -JAMES
Some people ray that physi-
ology isn't a reliable study, but
for experiment the eighth grade
examined Ralph King, using
the Physiology as a witness, and
decided he had a hook worm.
Now, if they hadn't any Physi
ology for witness, they would
never have known what was
wrong with the >oy. Therefore
1 consider physiology a reliable
study.
The pie supper brought $28.90,
which will lie used to good ad-
vantage. We thank you. Come
again, but leave your noise at
home.
We are taking examination
this week and hope to make
good grides, as everyone failed
last month.
