THE FACE WHICH MEMORY SEES When the twilight shadows darken, Ere the day has gone to sleep, There comes a tryst for dreaming Which memory loves to keep; When all is lost in silence And the daylight discord flees, As before us there is lifted The face which memory sees. For you it may be a mother's face, Who passed in the long ago, Of that of your child which God has called Because He loved it so; It matters not who went away, This much the dead past leaves: There comes to all when day is done The face which memory sees. Alas! how the thin lips tremble i ui ivinacn winiu tume no more, And silently some one listens For a voice from a far-off shore; A tear which falls unbidden In the dusk where some one grieves Is brushed away when cometh The face which memory sees. Who loveth best is bravest, There's heart for any fate And courage comes to patient souls Who in the valley wait, And somehow empty hearts are filled, Old sorrow softly flees As twilight lifts before us The face which memory sees. Atlanta. H. E. Harman. I)o your Christmas shopping early. You will eliminate the rush and render a favor to the merchants. o GOOI) WORK. The committees appointed to solicit funds for the Chamber of Commerce performed the duty well. The sum of $7,500 has been secured. It should be an easy matter to reach the $9,000 mark. Just $1,500 more will make it. If you have not made a subscription will you not do so now? You are helping yourself when you help this cause. It is like putting your money Anf q f J r?f nynef T %*?*!! ?**? ? ~ J vrwv Ml/ IIIVC1COV. It VY 111 pay a ^uuu rate. It will promote good fellowship. It will stimulate trade. It will add to the spirit of enterprise. You cannot afford to ignore the demands this appeal makes upon you. Get your heart right and come on and help build up the Chamber of Commerce. A good day is dawning for our little city. You should have a part in bringing in the new day. O MEDICAL INSPECTION IN OUR SCHOOLS. The State Medical Association has ma/la a ntvwAnl /A? I 1IIUUV c* ovivii^ 0|/|/T'al 1UI bllC CSUIU" lishment of a system of medical inspection in our public schools. The appeal is based upon reason, indeed it should be heeded by our people. The startling fact is brought out that , many minor defects in the child might be cured. These minor defects, if allowed to go without treatment lead to serious trouble as the child gets older. Many a child, owing to defective vision, goes through school branded as a dull student. Glasses, or treatment might correct the defect, and ;thus help the child in its studies. T^ere should be such inspection in all oar schools and it should be thorough and by skilled physicians. w \ %t y s TAKE YOUR TIME, BROTHER. | The sum of $7,500 has been raised in Union to employ a secretary of the Board of Trade. Who would live in Union for $7,500??Greenville Daily Piedmont. We have had our neighbors in Greenville and Spartanburg "rub it in" about as long as we feel like tamely submitting. The Spartanburg papers have not yet let up, although we have never yet invited a speaker here and then scrambled eggs in his face. We could say a good many things about both our sister cities, that would not be to their credit, but we refrain. We have had our problems and we have fought for clean government and for good citizenship, and we feel sure that we would lose nothing by comparison with either Spartanburg or Greenville in that respect. We here and now put The Piedmont and the Spartanburg papers on notice that we have stood about all we care to stand of their unfair and unkind flings without resenting them. Just go ahead and build your respective towns. That's what we are doing in Union. That's what we expect to continue to do. Yes, we have raised $7,500 to put our Chamber of Commerce upon a good financial footing. We purpose making it $9,000 this week. Greenville got any reason to resent our so doing? If the Daily Piedmont will be as alert in pressing the claims of Greenville's Chamber of Commerce as it is ready to fling at her neighbors perhaps Greenville's Chamber of Commerce will wake up.
