First fall violet signals changing year in The Banner

Leslie Brown notes the arrival of a lone fall violet along the front walk dated August 24. He treats the tiny flower as a symbol of autumn and speaks of intimate terms with nature, contrasting it with springtime wood violets and joking about budding poet ideas.

REMEMBERED VERSES AND LOCAL SOCIETY NEWS

The item notes a poetry excerpt from Alfred Lord Tennyson and reports multiple Athens and Georgia social events. It lists meetings of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union at 565 Prince Avenue, university club memberships, and a water melon cutting at Miss Carrie Thompson's on Thomas Street along with a Lantern sign drive. It mentions many local residents attending gatherings, marriages, bridge parties, and social visits across Athens and nearby towns.
