It brought back the green to the lawns and brightened up the drooping corn stalks. The nights have become quite cool and the days are beautiful with a slight breeze. The. heavy night dew, leaves the grass sparkling like a carpet of emeralds in the early morning sun. The flowerbeds are at their peak in colbr and fragrance as they are in full bibom, It will be sad to see all this beauty solon be gone when Mother Nature spreads her blanket of frost over the ground only to leave the flowers and foliage to wither and lie. Life is a funny thing, for as the flowers die and their beauty is gone, we see the leaves on the trees burst with fiery reds, yellows and orange colors to create an indescribable picture of unique beauty. It is the beginning of another season and with it many new happenings. In the summer everyone thinks of holidays, weddings and family reunions or gatherings, but, in the fall one's thoughts turn to fall fairs and sohool and long peaceful walks or scenic Sunday afternoon drives in the country, One thing is for certain, life should never really become dull, for as the seasons change, and each is so different, we always have something very special to look forward to. ,Something very special that is happening • in Dublin at the park this Saturday, Aug: 25 is the Dublin Bantam Boys Baseball Tournament. There will be eight teams' participating in the one day event which begins at 9 a.m. and the filial game is" scheduled for 7:30 p.m, The Dublin Boys Teams' mothers are. having a booth for the day to help fill all those hungry tuminys• The tournament will have an "A" and a "B" Consolation final game and trophies will be given to the most valuable player on each team at the end of the day.
