In MemOrian.

Little George Thompson, only
son of A. X. "Pink" and Cora
Quinn was born Dec. 8, 1897, and
died Sept. 10, 1898, age 8 months
and 6 days. Sometimes, it seems,
that God only gives us these lit.
tie ones that we may learn to
love them, then removes them
from this world and takes them to
himself. But God doeth all things
well, and He takes those we love
in order to draw our hearts away
from this world and to fix our
affection on heaven and life eter-
nal. He knows what is for our
spiritual and eternal welfare. So
He has taken the only babe home
to Himself, and thereby bids IA
ther and mother follow the babe
to rest and heaven. May Gods
spirit fill the vacancy in the home
and hearts Of these our bereaved
friends, and draw their minds
and hearts away from the feeting
things of earth, and forever fix
them on God our Father, and
thereby bind up their bleeding
hearts. God alone can comfort.

introduced by the Hon. Thomas
H. Payne, of Jackson, Tenn, in
a few we'll chosen words. Mr.. Nc.
Millin was very hoarse, and at
times it was difficult for him to
speak plain enough for his hearers
to grasp his ideas. His speech,
though short, was in answer to
charges made by his opponent,
concluding with an eloquent pre-
sentation of some reforms in state
government expenses he would
make if elected governor. Some

CHRISTIAN Meeting.

The ass meeting Of the chris.
tian eli rches of Hardin county at
Nixon st Saturday and Sun day,
was al occasion long to be re-
membt red. The attendance was
large, I'd the interest intense.
The hos oitable doors of the homes
near by wore thrown wide open,
and numbers Of strangers made
welcome testify to the good cheer
within.
Elder John Castleberry presided
over the deliberations of the
meeting, and with earnest words
impressed his hearers with the
vast Importance of tho work Of
evangelizing the world, and the
part each one must take toward
it's accomplishment.
! 1t was a meeting of the followers
of Jesus to emphasize the impor-
lance of the command: "Go ye
into all the world and preach the
gospel to every creature"
The enthusiasm of everybody
on the subject was cause of con.
graduation.
Mr.. Baxter Cantrell spoke on
the theme, $50: Who, Where and
Why" He clearly showed that
the command was to all alike and
placed the responsibility of the
work squarely upon the shoulders
of every christian, preacher or
layman, showing that those who
could not 60 personally were to
60 by proxy, send others, and con.
tribute to their support while
they devoted their lives to the
spread of the gospel. The audi
ence went away thrilled with the
young preachers earnestness, and
determined to help send the word
if they could not go personally to
carry the glad tidings.
State Evangelist Myhr spoke of
the work in Tennessee, and the
heart of every christian was made
glad by the story of the great work
being done in our own state, the
marvellous growth of the cause in
the last eight years, the churches
built, poor congregations assisted,
preachers supplied in destitute
places, and above all, the great
ingathering of souls brought about
by united effort and systematic
cooperation.
Brethren A. w. Cobb, n. G..
Baker and Phillips spoke feel
ingly of the duties of elders and
laymen toward the great work in
hand.
The relation of Sunday school
to mission work was discussed,
and the boys and girls of the Sun.
day school learned that they, too,
can help to spread the gospel.
Sunday an immense crowd of
people of every creed assembled
bright and early and listened with
prayerful interest to a sermon on
"The Gospel in Trust" by Brother
Myhr, which was preceded by a
paper on Incorporation Necessary
to Success" by Mrs. d. A. Nc
Dougal.
The services of the day were
concluded by the baptism of two
who desired to drop all names ex-
cept the name Christian, and unite
with Gods people on the Bible
alone. Such meetings give a fresh
impetus to religious feeling, and
awaken sense of greater obliga-
ton to send the blessed tidings
all the world around. May such
gatherings become more frequent
all over the land.
