BURKES GARDEN
                

The Garden is beautiful now - veritable garden spot in high state of cultivation. Though the season has been rather late, the corn, for the most part, is looking good; the wheat has been harvested, and the farmers are in the midst of hay making. The weather is fine and the meadows are beautiful. And there are some corn patches here which stand a fair chance for the prize. About the best piece of corn in the Garden belongs to J.H. MEEK'S sons and is situated on the road almost opposite the Academy.

The usual number of visitors are being entertained this summer and up to this time the Garden has been gay with parties and picnics. Among the young ladies who have given parties are Misses Sara MOSS, Ethel MEEK, Lucille SNAPP and Katrina GOSE.

Miss Stella LONG has had as her house guest, for several weeks, Miss Virginia SNAPP, of Glade Spring.

Miss Lucille SNAPP has been entertaining for some time Misses Marlam and Vivian BROWN of Black Lick and Miss Jessie Lou McCOMMAC of Bristol.

Mrs. Graham PORTERFIELD, of Abingdon, is visiting relatives here.

Mrs. L.D. SNAPP left last Sunday for Newport, where she is spending a few days at the bedside of her brother, Dr. MILLER, who is critically ill.

Dr. TELCHETT, in the absence of our resident physician, is performing his duty faithfully and well.

Mr. and Mrs. J.W. HOGE have as their guests, Miss Mayola and Billie GILLESPIE, Mrs. T.C. BOWEN and others.

Mrs. R.E. GOODMAN made a business trip to Tazewell Wednesday.
