I The Poet’s Corner |
C’est Automne
By Murrell Smith
On <a yearly occurrence an ocean of green grass seems to
turn from green to yellow over night -
The grapes are ripe and in the late afternoon sunshine the
sweet scent permeates the air -
Pleasantly down the street as you walk by an orange colored
pumpkin sits on a front porch peeping at you, as you walk
by- occasionally stripped corn husk is at his side -
Autumn is queen of the sky - children puffing-smoke while
they run and play in gingerbread colored clothes - little
girls pucked their lips - trying to whistle -
Autumn casts deep ink - spots and black shadows where the
rabbit darts from shadow to shadow and the fox is not far
behind -
Ice crystals thin as a newspaper spun a glimmering sheet
over a rain puddle where it evaporates when the sun hits
its -
Every tree seems to have been sculptured in relief - the
moon makes magic of the night the atmosphere is as
brittle as glimmering spun yellow glass -
As the autumn deepens to drawings of the silhouettes outline
every person’s shadow - every breath is a spun wreath
around his head - the shimmering of the roof tops reflected
in the sky -
The red cheeks of children peek through silvery coated
frosted windows - Autumn waits for the prelude of winter -
C’est Automne - with it’s hint of cold in the air - it’s smell of
burning leaves -
C’est moi Automne where does the honest face of hospitality
expand into a broader and more cordial smile -
Where is the sky glance of love more sweetly eloquent than
by the autumn fireside -
The pitchy gloom fades and the heart is happy of entering a
room fill with the glow and warmth of the evening fire-
The ruddy blaze diffuses an artificial summer and sunshine
through the room -
"The Mousetrap”
Drama Club Holds Ray
“The Mousetrap” is one of
the longest running plays in
the history of English
theatre. It first opened in
1952, and is still being
performed in London. This
spine-tingling murder
whodunit will be presented
here in Edenton by Holmes
Drama Club.
1 *
Performance dates for
“The Mousetrap” are
Thursday through Saturday,
November 19, 20, and 21.
The play will begin at 8:00
each evening in the Holmes
Auditorium with admission
charge of $2.50 per person.
Cast members include
Harriet Abbe, Cary Parker,
Eric Strother, Rhonda
THE CHOWAN HF.RAT.n
Mizelle, Martin Mansfield,
Stephanie Hampton, Frank
Parrish and Eric Rose.
From the first strains of
“Three Blind Mice” until
the final discovery of the
murderer, there are many
moments of personal con
flict and soul searching to
find which of the eight snow
bound residents of
Monkswell Manor Guest
House is guilty of murder.
During each per
formance, there will be a
contest to see which viewer
can discern the identity of
the killer before in
termission. The winner each
evening will receive a gift
certificate.
Plan now to see this great
play by the late Agatha
Christie - one of the world’s
best-loved mystery writers.
This play is Agatha Christie
at her finest art.
Don’t forget - November
19 through 21 at 8 P. M. in
Holmes Auditorium for
“The Mousetrap”.
A bulb-making capacity and
the six petals to all its
blooms mark all the mem
bers of the lily family.
Thus, the calla, with its
single bowl, is not a mem
ber of the lily family at all.
Leaf Burning Safety Precautions Urged
It’s that time of year
again! Time to get out the
old rake, roll-up your
sleeves, and rake those
leaves.
Do you remember when
nothing was more fun than a
flying leap into a freshly
raked pie of leaves?
Somewhere along the road
from carefree childhood to
responsible adult, autumn
leaves become less ap

pealing. Instead of
frolicking in the leaves,
residents are faced with the
annual task of raking and
disposing of them.
To avoid the obvious risk
of uncontrolled fires
resulting from careless leaf
burning, here are some
things to keep in mind:
1. When burning leaves
500 feet or less from a
wooded area, you must
obtain a burning permit.
(Some cities consider open
leaf burning illegal.)
2. Leaf burning could
create air pollution which
could affect the health of
people with respiratory
problems.
3. Burning leaves on the
street may cause damage to
the street.
4. If you own some
acreage or have a garden,
composting is one of the best
alterntives for disposal
reuse. Composting is a
recycling process that
converts leaves, grass and
vegetable clippings into a
