—SECTION TWO. PAGE FOUR THE ENCHANTMENT OF SUMMER By MURRELL SMITH At the start of a new-gak son crocuses, hyactnOisp'j'on quils and daffqdils push through the darrtp, and soggy ground. In patches ice and snow still remains. As the., 'ir.ild days pass slowly, birds reappear that were goi*e someplace from the winteigs, icy fingers. You, can 'fieaF* them vigorously • singing in the church yard, where the steeple reaches for the heav ens. You can see bees buzzing around flowers and in the meadows where the red leaf clover is knee high a young colt runs hither and thither. Sheep grazing contented. You can hear cows bellowing for their lost calf. feeding, th>i wagging thdir tails deligntfully. Goats butting heads playfully. The world is gay and carefree. The cherry blossoms, apple blossoms, peach blossoms and dogwood blossoms irichly em blazoned the whole radiant world and sets dt splendent golden rajs "Tfciat radiate from heaven. -JOSeS brilliant splendor < ■spMsrfftl into a symphony' colors. Wisteria climbs with their tentrils. securely entwined around the branches of trees, their blossoms hang loosely toward the ground, their petals fall and form a glori ous velcet carpet. Wasps and bees work feverishly over them. The sweet aroma from the honeysuckle' pervades every place. Blossoms from the cotton wood drift softly down like fluffy white snow flakes. White and yellow mar guerites, wild Queen Anne’s lace grow profusely along the ditch banks. In the beaming sunlight goldenrods, Carolina jessa mine, black - eyed susans, zennias and marigolds lum inate with luster. A lazy dog with drooping ears sleeps under a beautiful white and pink mimosa, while gnats and mosquitoes hover overhead. An old house stands along a .winding road where mig nonette, gladiolus and morn ing glories with heart shap ed leaves and funnel shaped flowers twine delicately around lovely crepe myrtle trees. Chickens and ducKs ramble aimlessly down the winding dusty road. The unripened corn sways to and fro as the gentle breeze makes a small sc-und through the silken tassel. The soybeans look like a sea of green waves as they sway with the wind. The heavy fragrance of magnolia blossoms with their glossy leaves so tender and lively line the ancient cemetery. Whirlwinds spend into fun nels across the open fields, then die away. As the en trancing day moves on a delivate breeze rustles the leaves in the tree. A locust can be heard with a loud high-sounding shrill. A thundercloud comes up and the rains replenish the miracle of the season. In the damp shaded woods rain chops glide slowly down the moisture laden leaves, hang foi a while, then drops into puddles of water and cause little ripples to form, widen and then disappear. The rain cools the day, snakes and turtles come- out along the creek banks and bask in the tender affectionate sun light. In the quaint old town lawn mowers can be heard throughout the afternoon and the fresh scented cut grass AIR CONDITIONED Taylor Theatre Eden ton, N. C.

C.,_ has just recently released 1 data on the individual poi son reports as submitted by poison control centers in the U.
