ROWE'S JEWELRY STORE WHERE A DOLLAR DOES ITS DUTY 0KKX00KK0H0000 1 THE SOCIAL WORD I BY VIRGINIA SOUTHERN (000000000000!eO000000(000)0000 How sweet 'twill be though joys are thwartej Ami emilea rebuked by rorrow's sigh, To think, however friends are parted, At least that friendship eunnot die! William Winter. The outcome of the election is seemingly the mapr.ct of general interest, nothing of & formal na ture being scheduled since the disappearance of grotesque jack-o'-lanterns and their attendant charms. i Many informal events where neighbors have dropped in for the afternoon, enjoyed a cup of tea and while sipping ardently dis cussed the conditions pro and con that elected this candidate or de feated that one, carried this amendment or defeated that one. Such keen manifestation of inter est furnishes novelty to many who have heretofore been latent on such subjects, but now it will have a charm that will doubtless prove very enduring. Only a short while and we will be waiting in spicy expectancy for Thanksgiving, when prepara tions will be made for pleasant home-gatherings, for many who are away at school will return to enjoy Thanksgiving at home where they will swing irto a round of social gaiety.
