We feel to congratulate the people
Of st. George upon the fact that Prof.
A. M. Merrill and Henry Otte have
again been employed as principal and
musical director, respectively at the
Woodward School. During the school
year that has just closed, Mr.. Merrill
has shown himself to be a big calibre.
whole souled capable man, and Prof.
Otte has been OF great service to the
town in musical way, particularly as
leader of the Silver Band, which un-
der his tutorage has made remarkable
strides and makes the st. George band
the peer of any like organization in
the state. 1t a pleasure to know that
these gentlemen will be with us an
other year.
A party was prepared as a surprise
for Prin. A. NJ. Merrill last Saturday
night by the ninth grade of the Wood
ward school, at the residence of Mrs
Lizzie Gardner. Mr.. Merrill had
come informed as to the intentions,
and was not happily surprised, but the
disappointment did not detract from
the pleasure of the evening, and a
very enjoyable time was spent by the
whole company. Monday morning
Prof. Merrill and wife left for their
home in LOgan.-Dixie Advocate.

II. S. were presented and sustained.
Sister Eames admonished the sisters
to attend to their prayers, and said
the Lord would hear.
Sister Stephenson said: "You teach
ers in the r. S.hold high calling and
should be prayerful. Let US mind our
own creed. When we feel tempted to
gossip, let us refrain and offer up
prayer. Pres. Joseph Smith once said
that mothers could impress their
children more nine months before
birth than in nine years after. Learn
to live right and prepare for mother
hood. Let us teach our children that
divorce Is but cloak for sin. May we
live to have the Joy OF seeing our child
rem called to go and settle Jackson
county, Missouri"
Sister Lambert said: Love your
neighbors as yourself. know that
Joseph Smith was prophet of God,
and II we seek for the spirit we can do
great good. Teach your children to
keep the Word OF Wisdom, and the
paying of tithing and donations.
Sister Myra Merrill said:"let us take
care Of the wheat and in times of need
the Lord will multiply 1t as needed.

and talk to the boys, as they need it
as well as the girls. We want virtue
to reign supreme here in Utah and the
United States.
Councillor Margaret Morrell bore ner
testimony and urged diligence.
Pres. Lucy Carbon expressed de-
sire for the experience of the older
sisters, and hoped that the younger
sisters would meet and receive the
benefit OF counsel together.

Sister Zina Card bore testimony
to the remarks of Pres. Smith and
said IL trust to be able to carry it out
| I'm my own home. We must keep ON
struggling, there is no place to rest.
Time will heal the wound OF trial IL
we but go on. Our father has given
us the privilege to vote and given us
a voice in civil affairs. Now, this is a
great privilege. How | admire the
people OF Logan for they have put our
own sisters In Office In this city and
they have never betrayed the trust.
Now let us educate our sons and
daughters to prepare for these posi-
tions. We can voice our sentiment In
the newspaper also. The women Of
the different organizations of the
world are, TO my mind, pulling at the
wrong string. The nation will grad
ually 20 down to decay just as sure as
Rome and other nations went to de-
cay, and all through disObedience Of
that great law of motherhood and

w llsville High links.

On Monday evening just as he was
about to retire to his virtuous bacca-
laurean couch, Professor George w.
Skidmore was astounded beyond ex.
preston to have his privacy invaded
by about sixty of his pupils, with
teachers and Trustees Allan, In whose
residence the event took place, and
barley, who were innOcently dragged
into the plot. Needless to state that
the visitors came accompanied with
the dainty array Of comestibles neces-
sary to appease the delicate appetite
Of the professor for such things. After
discussing the good things thus pro-
vided, a very interesting program Of
songs and recitations was rendered, at
the conclusion of which Mr.. Harold
Swift, In few well-chOsen words, on
behalf of the assembly presented Mr..
SkidmOre with beautiful gold
mounted fountain pen. Mr.. Skid
more was deeply affected by the evi.
dence OF the esteem in which he is
held and responded feelingly. The
work done In our district schools I'M

r1rs. Hannah 5. gayle.

Mrs. Hannah S.Gayle, wife OF Capt. A.
J.Gayle died at her home in this city on
Friday evening, April %, after a pro-
tracted illness which was intensified by
infrmities of old age. She was II years
old. and had been in delicate health for
years. Mrs. Gayle vas born in South
Carolina and was the daughter OF DR..
William Roland. who for many years
was a practicing physician and promi-
nent citizen, at ChesteryilIe, and who is
gratefully remembered by many OF the
older citizens of Lee and Pontotoc coun-
ties. She was the mother OF three chill
dren, only one OF whom, Mrs. b. A.
Rogers. OF this city. survives her.
Mrs. Gayle had been a life long member
of the PRESBYTERIAN church and in her
daily walk fully exemphifed her devotion
to it's tenets and teachings. She was
truly a good woman and DEVOTED her
life to the duties and obligations which
devolyed upon her as only a conscerated
christian can. She was beloved by all
who knew her and her death has caused
a void to be felt in the hearts OF her
friends which cannot be filled She was
universally esteemed for her gentle ma
ture and pure christian character.
The mineral services were held at the
late residence by Rev. C. N. Van Houten,
pastor OF the Presbyterian church OF this
city, assisted by Rev. r. A. kimbrough
of the Baptist church and Rev. J. A.
Bowen of the NJ. e. church. The cere-
monies were beautifully impressive. The
floral offerings were many and were com
posed of the rarest and loveliest lowers
that could be obtained. A large con-
course of friends followed the remains to
the cemetery where they were laid to
rest on Saturday evening 23d, inst. The
community joins in sympathy for
the aged stricken husband who is thus
bereft OF a loving and faithful compan.
ion and the heart broken daughter who
has lost a devoted and tender mother.
