MEMORIAL SERVICES
Held in Honor of Mrs. Grace Stewart
Potter.

The Woman's Wednesday club held mem,
orial services yesterday afternoon at
o'clock in ST. Andrews church in mem
DRY of Mrs. Grace Stewart Potter
who was the founder of the society. a
large number of the friends of Mrs. Potter
were present to hear the services. The fol-
lowing tribute to the worth and merit
of the dead lady was read by one of the
members Of the society:
Yet, what binds friend unto friend
But that soul with soul may blepd:
Soul-like were those hours OF yore;
Let Us walk in soul once more.
Most sincerely do we render this tribute
of love to the memory of one who has van
ished from our earthly vision, going on be-
fore US to the home of the soul.
Il seems but yesterday since we met her
in her home, later on at the home Of one of
our members, where wit and mirth held sway
none more joyous than she, and again at our
annual meeting mo voice whispered it was
to be her last) where we listened to
her bright report of the prosperity
of the preceding year. We recall
to our studies the brightest and best of the
thoughts, the outgrowth of innate refine
ment and careful education, most freely
given to the work which was so dear TO her
heart. Truly her life was sweet
lesson of her favorite motto: Look
up and not down, OUT ana not IN; look Tor
ward and not back and lend hand.
How much they miss her only they can
tell who loved her most and were bound to
her by the ties Of home.
Since she went home
The long. long days have crept away like years
The sunlight has been dimmed with doubts and
fears
And the long nights have rsined in lonely tears
Since she went home"
How blest are they whose soul life
transcends the physical life. Ger such,
death has no power, except to hide from low
ing eyes the casket which contained the
jewel, that we may behold more clearly and
prize more truly the beauty and worth Of
the jewel
Who have not learned in hours Of faith
The truth to flesh and care unknown
That Life is ever lord of death,
And love can never lose its OWE
Oh, friend so pure and true, in our circle
is 4 vacant chair, but thy loving presence
will never vanish from out our soul-life.

TIE decision of Judge Seay, that the
Cherokees have no title TO the Chero-
kee Strip, is startling announcement
to the Indians. The case will. of course,
be carried up to the Federal supreme
court, and if it sustains this decision.
the Cherokees will lose lands that they
have refused as much as $4,000, 900
for 1t will also have an important
bearing On the fortunes OF the cattle
men who have cattle ranging in the

do not own the land. the government
does, and the temper of the govern
