IN MEMORlAM,

Luke S Northcutt, horn in Henry county,
Ga, Dec. 23rd, 1924; died in Marietta Ga,
June 10Th, 1885.
Mr.. Northcutt was one of family of
eleven children six of whom had preceded
him in death He was the seventh son of
Alexander and Lucy Northcutt, and was
raised to young manhood on their farm
place in Henry county
At an early age, having been employed
by firm in Barlow, county, Ga. he engag-
ed in the general merchandise business,
which he followed with that uprightness
which left him after thirty-six years of hard
work poor man, save for the respect and
esteem OF all who knew him intimately, hav-
ing appraised him according to the integri-
ty of his character rather than by the amount
of his earthly possession.
At the age of twenty-six, he married Miss
Eveline Dorsett, Of Chattooga county, Ga,
and, after her death, her sister, then Mrs.
Fannie MARROW, of Marietta, Ga.
Again, losing his second wife, he married
and brought from the State of New York a
third, who was destined to cherish his old
age, and tenderly watch over his last earthly
moments; who now is left doubly bereaved,
nasmuch as in his death she has lost both a
husband and all ties which constitute a
home.
For many years he was member of the
Methodist Church, in which he was trusted
and respected. AT length however, rather
because of his disagreement with the pecu-
harties of that denomination than because
ofany diminution ofreigious fervor or trustful
confidence in his Savior Christ he practical
" withdrew from it.
Many there are who do confidently and
assuredly aver with me, "An excellent spir-
it was in him. His loyalty to his Master
was ever evinced by upright dealing for
which we have the abundant testimony of
his oldest business associates, fervent love
tor the Savior childlike faith in things d.
vine reyerent searching of the scriptures
until he knew the text of the Inspired One
as few knew it, and great desire to obey its
commands and follow in the footsteps of
Jesus.
No subject interested him so much as those
of religion; nothing seemed half so sure or
so dear as the Heavenly Inheritance.
Christian charity marked his converse
ton. Seldom were words of disparagement
heard from his lips
As he neared the end of his natural life. it
became my good fortune to win his conf
dence and to discover the man under the
constant disguise of his habitual reticence.
And so it is with confidence that bear will
ing testimony that he died, as a child of
God should die, in full assurance of faith,
having the heart sprinkled from an evil con
science and the body washed with pure wa
tera-even the LAYER of Regeneration.
10 those upon whom this bereavement
falls heaviest, his wife and children, our sym
pathies are offered with prayers that God
may be both Protector and Father to those
whom His death-angel has despoiled.
May we all with him, have boldness to
enter into the hottest by the blood of Jesus
by new and living way which he hath con
secrated for us. c. c.. LEMAN,
Rector ST. James Church.

Eds. Journal The natural, or acquired
prominence of most of the cities and towns
of this grand old State, is matter of local
pride to the denizens thereof
In point of fact there are so many excel
lent and commendable features in the vari-
GUS sections of our State that it would be no
easy task to name them. But in our opin.
ion the live little city Of West Popt comes
to the front with more reasons for selfcon-
graduation than any city in our State, OF
perhaps, of our sister states. She has list
of civic honors worn by her young men, that
would even have made the Gate Cit" jubi-
liant.
See what her West Point boys have
done r. S. Griggs was valedictorian, with
first honers in the dental department Of the
University of Tennessee. Tom Galloway

Arthur Heyman and Asa Griggs win speak.

Now when we reflect that the young men
who bear off those honors were once stu.
dents Of Pro. F. NJ. Blounts formerly OF
West Point but now of SMYRNA and doubt
less owe no small share Of their success
to the pains-taking and mental training
that they received at his hands, we feel that
this community has right to feel compla.
cent for having such an educator in our
midst, and, ifsome of the Smyrna boys don
take the cake ut some future walk" the
fault will rest at home SMYRNA.

STORE!

There was man in our town, and he
was wondrous wise, for when he marked
his prices down, he then did advertise.
And when he saw his trade increase. with
all his might and main he marked still low
er every price and advertised again. And
when he advertised again it made his rivals
roar, to see the people rush to him and pat
ronize his store. And while they sat in
solitude and saw him custom win, that man
behind the counter stood and raked the
shekels in. And when he raked the shek-
els in and saw his fortune rising he took
goodly lot of tin and kept on advertising.
Each day generous sum he'd sink, and
demonstrate full plain, the more one pays
for printers ink the greater is his gain
