Died, at her residence near Fair
field, Iowa, on July 10th, 1885, Mrs.
Ann McCarty, wife Of the late Isaac
McCarty. Ann Devecmon was born
at Westernport, Allegany county,
Md, on May Sd, 1894, and at the
age of twelve years was brought to
reside near the present site of Oak
land, her parents having spent the
intervening years partly at Cumber-
land, and partly at ClarkSburg, West
Va. She was married to Isaac Nc
Carly January ODD, 1915, and resided
near Oakland until 1850, when they
removed to Iowa, and purchased the
farm upon which both their lives
were ended. Grandmother McCarty
was converted about so years ago,
and has eyer since been a consistent
member of the NJ. e. Church. Her
advanced age rendered it impossible
for her to attend the public means of
grace for several years preceding her
death, but her life was proof that 1.-THE
path of the lust is as a shining light
that shineth more and more unto the
perfect day" As she advanced in
years she grew in grace and brought
forth the fruits of the Spirit in such
abundance and perfection that it
might truly be said of her cher last
days We're her best days" Her long,
long life was not without its trials !;
the rearing Of her eleven children to
manhood and wOmanhoOd brought a
heavy burden of responsibility and
care; parents, brothers, sisters and

Harvest Home.

A harvest home picnic was cele
brated by the Forks congregation, of
the Lutheran church, Saturday, Sep
tember 5th. This was an occasion to
which the people of that community
had long been looking with the happy
anticipation of pleasant time. They
had tOiled long amid the harvest and
beneath the burning rays of the sum-
mer sun, and, after the golden har-
vest had all been garnered away,
doubtless they felt that a day of
thanksgiving and of social enjoy
ment would be necessary to complete
the harvest of the season. Despite
the unfavoratle appearance of the
morning the people commenced to
repair to the place of meeting. and
continued to pour in until there was
present perhaps the largest number
ever seen on a similar occasion in
this county. All present were eyi.
IDENTIFY intent on having a pleasant
day, but wishes were of no avail and
hopes were vain. The day proved so
untavOrable that the programme for
the occasion was changed entirely
and the exercises were held in the
church. The Pastor, Rev. j. B.
ShOup, delivered an able and apprO-
pirate address from the following
text: "While the earth remaineth,
seed-time and harvest, and cold and
heat, and summer and winter, and
day and night shall not cease to be-"
After service the church and school
house were offered to as large num-
Der of those present as could find shell
ter IN them, and an ample dinner
was served by the generous-hearted
people, which did credit to them
selves and to the occasion. The en-
joyment Of the day, though not en-
tireiy destroyed, was nevertheless
interrupted, and the people, with
looks Of disappointment on their
faces, and with expressions of regret
on their lips returned to their homes.
The day, however. was designed to
dilfuse through all those present a
spirit of submission to the will of
Him who in wisdom Sendeth rain or
sunshine upon the earth.
The harvest home celebration of
the Forks will be permanent an
nual institution in the future as it
has been in the past three years. This
idea is very good one. The sons of
agriculture upon whose honest toll
all the complex fabrics of society rest
for support, will greatly increase the
dignity Of their occupation by pro-
noting among themselves a greater
spirit of sociality. A day set apart
for thanksgiving by the people who
have been the recipients of bOunti-
ful harvest, teaches them to set their
common dependence on Him to
whom the eyes of all living beings
look for food and for support, leads
them on account of like occupations
and like interests to feel a closer So
cial relation to each other, and unites
them in firmer bonds Of friendship.
AT no other time Of the year are the
people so well prepared to enjoy a
day of this kind, and at no other time
are they so ready to respond to the
call as they are Immediately after the
