Stately Japanese cedar trees line both sides of the 30-mile boulevard leading from the imperial summer palace at Nikko, Japan, to a near-by village. The trees tower 200 feet or more in the air. The legend has it that several hundred years ago tho emperor summoned all the noblemen to his summer palace, each one being requested to bring a gift. An impov erished nobleman carried wtth hiW| a sack of tree seeds, and planting the seeds on both aides of the highway caused his name to be remembered long after the gold and silver offer ings of his colleagues had vanished.

Ducks Fly South. Gastonia Gazette. Wild ducks and cranes up north are beginning to fly south almost two ^months ahead of the usual time. This is announced by the Canadian Nation al Railways, relaying word received from thpir agents. Old settlers in Ontario say that never within memory have they known the ducks and cranes to start their southward migratory flights so early. % ,?r The early settlers believe that an winter is coming. Z: Hudson Bay fur trappers report that the wild rice, favorite food of wild ducks and geese, matured very early this year. The trappers say this is another indication that winter is not far away. The weather this year has been so queer all over the world, due to the sun's giving off about 5 per fent less heat than usual that winter might arrive two months ahead of its cus tomary schedule without amazing us. Spring was iate in most parts of the earth. Summer came in hot waves, working double to make up for lost time. The maple leaves in the tourist country of Ontario started turning red and yellow in mid-August, nearly a month early. That looks like an early fall, forerunner of an early win ter. Ojibway Indians, on the other hand, insist that all the seasons are three weeks late this year and that .winter will arrive late instead of ahead of schedule. They base their predictions on the fact that in August they have had to fish 200 feet deep to catch genuine salmon trout, whereas nor mally, they w<Suld find these rdd trout "floating" 100 feet below the surface of the lakes. 1 The Indians figure that the salmon trout will be three weeks late in ris ing to spawn on the shoals this fall. Which, says the Ojibways, is a sure early fall, forerunner of an early win ter. The controversy narrows down to this: "Which is the better weather prophet, a wild duck or a deep-water fish? Both are guided by instinct of a mysterious sort that enables them to sense the weather months ahead. Even old Mother* -Nature seems to , be contradictory this year, as con fused as we who in our rise to civili zation have lost the sixth sense pos sessed by wild ducks, salmon, trout, and to a lesser extent, Indians.

It is the. silent hoUi'-rthe hour when duty, care and pleasure alike stand outside the locked portals of a our t hearts. They open only to the keys of Memory,' and no presence save that of love can enter there. The air i? heavy with incense mingled with the perfume of roaemany and rue. We pause and clasp hands over the bier of one who was bound to us by all ties of love and loyalty, and though Death, the great leveler, has remove ! her far from our mortal eyes, he stands powerless before a bond that is in the nature ot things eternal. Kaeh year takes Mts toll <?t those who an' proud to be known as the Daughters of the Confederacy and though we mourn their loss, a great truth is brought home to us, that no individual is necessary to the Divine plan and 1 that the spirit of our organization transcends any human loss, so that even in the "Valley of the Shadow" Hope sees a star, and faith hears the Mutter of an angel's wing and al- , though the tragic \leath of Mrs. Ku gene Brown cast a lingering shadow on our chapter her memory will al ways be an inspiration to those i among whom she worked and by whom she was so de&rly loved, to emulate her good deeds. "They cannot wholly pass away How far so'er above, Nor we, the lingers wholly stay Apart from those we love; For spirits in Eternity, . As shadows in the sun, Reach backward into Time, as we, Like lifted clouds reach on."

Kennedy Chapter is i famous for its delightful meetings and none have excelled in charm and pleasure the .first assembling of the j chapter for the season at the home of! Mr. C. J. Shannon, Jr., with Misses! Leila and Charlotte Shannon. Mrs. Burwcll Boykin and Miss Minette Boykin as hostesses. After the roll) call, a tribute, to the memory of Mrs. j 'Eugene Brown, that was written by. the chapter, president, was read by the secretary and then Reports of of ficers and standing committees were given. Miss Leila Shannon as State Chair man i.s proud of the fact that the Jefferson Davis Highway has been marked through South Carolina and Mi's. Dunn as chapter chairman feeds sure that the boulder with a hand pome bronze plate bearing the name of Jefferson Davis will be placed in front of lllimpton Park within the next month. The election of officers resulted in the choice of the following: Presi dent, Mrs. W. J. Dunn; first vice pres OF COURSE, no boy will really test his shoes f with a saw, an auger or a \ chisel,, but it does seem so, es- \ pecially when mother just finished lecturing about the care of new shoes and father just paid the bill. And to make boys take care of their shoes all the time would be to take haft" of the joy out of their lives. The solution of the ptoblem is to buy WEYENBERG SHOES at the start They "Stand the Gaff" Weyenberg Boys' Shoes are made" "All Soli<J Leather" ? cut from the best part of the hide. They are not made like so many boys' shoes, from the i culls or left-overs of leathers used for men s shoes. ; That's the reason Weyenberg Boys' Shoes wear so much longer and better than other shoes!

Mac key : recording secretary, Miss Louise Net ties; treasurer, Mrs. K. 10. Sill; histo rian, Mrs. S. ('. Zemp; registrar, Mrs. W. F. Nettles. The faithful and efficient secretary and historian, Mrs. N. C. Arnett, and Miss Ix'ila Shannon, who had done so much to bring the chapter up to its high standard, declined re-election, much to the regret of all. The presi dent also feeling that she could no longer monopolize the honor of the chapter very reluctantly gave it up, after holding the office for seven years. The retiring president loves the United Daughters of the Confed eracy for its unique character, for not only having the courage but for being proud to honor those who in the eyes of the world sufYered defeat, unique that it honors the private soldiers aw highly as the general. She loves the Daughters of the Confederacy because they have placed before the youth of our land the life and character of our "Knights Kxemplar", Lee, Jackson, Johnston, Beauregard and others, stimulating them to admire the best, love the best, emulate the best and though she has given up the loader ship of the chapter, her interest in it has not waned. The social hour was much enjoyed. The hostesses served cake and ice cream with hot chocolate sauce. Miss Minnie Clyburn and Miss G. E. Taylor will be the hostesses for the November meeting. ?
