The teams were very evenly matched and Ridgeland offered the strongest opposition the locals have faced so far this season. to Uw Blank tmmilf It pwd into tbo hands of Tto old family art dtsparsad and fono far away. But Uril place la a memor ial to them and especially of the lady who came here as a bride and lived here as a wife and mother through a long snd useful life. ’ “Her impress is still upon every thing; her spirit lives anew in the re current blooming of her rose garden. I t a stranger, feel a kinship with her as I breathe their dewey fragrance. Today there is the flaming of crimson lilies, amaryllis, against the green shrubbery. Though she is mingled wth the dust, the work of her hands lives on in the beauteous life of the lilies. * • At Easter time the ‘white flags,’ un furled ift all their purity, an emblem of the sweet spirit of her whose pure thought and injiate love of the beauti ful gave them a perpetual gift of love liness to those'who came after her. Early in the spring a myriad of daffo dils, jonquils and narcissi came up in great haste. Some bore trumpets and were the trumpeters cf the good tid ings of springs. The eternal yellows of all the sunsets were within the hearts of them. Their fragrance and freshness were divine. “The sweetness of one woman made possible all this loveliness. She is immortalized in the blooming of her flowers, and there is a lessen for me in all this exquisite loveliness. I, too, may live again in a flower, a vine or tree. Who of us but can recall even now ‘mother’s rosebush’ or the holly hocks and larkspur of the old garden, the tree s that father planted, the ce dar by the gate, the poplar and walnut at the barn lot, to say nothing of in dividual trees that had each a name of its own? “Now for the lesson. I have already planted some blood-ied cannas. They are growing fine and will continue for years. I am a ‘rolling stone’ and gather no moss perhaps, but I do try to leave each spot that I roll away from a little bit improved. At one is growing a clematis vine that blooms like a midsummer snow storm of va pory white flowers. At another a Vir ginia creeper covers a plain little cot tage, changing it to a fairy castle by moonlight. \ “It is easy to set a few fine straight little trees in the bare, sun-stricken yard of the rented place. They are growing wild and free all over our dear Southland. Just a thought of those who are to come after us, and let that thought materialize by plant ing a cedar or maple or vine or fig tree, or any thing else of joy and beau ty. It will make all the world lovelier and ourselves nobler. Do this. Do it now. No matter if you have only a week to stay there, leave a memorial so that others who live there in days to come shall know that it has some time been the abode of one whose soul was .alive with love of God, of nature and of humanity.
