In Yemoriam

About 3o'clock Friday morning Au.
gust the Oath, 1906, little Jettie May,
youngest child of Mr.. and Mrs Ernest
Young sweetly breathed her last, and
passed from this sad earth to a more
glorious Home above to await the COM
ing of her loved ones
She was born Nov. the End. 1899,
and was with us a little less than seven
years, but in that time won the hearts
of all who knew her, by her kindness
obedience, and love. She leaves a moth
err and father, brother and sister, and
a host of relatives and friends to mourn
her loss.
Her little white robed body, in its
little white casket, was laid to rest in
Providence Cemetery there to await
the Resurrection Morn.
Oh! sweet is the memory of this dear
child. Oh! sad it was to give her up.
But with chastened hearts we bow in
submission to Him who doeth all things
well. Remembering that our loss is
her gain, we say, Help US, dear Je.
sus, to live sc that
We shall meet her in the morning,
When earth's night has passed away,
We shall greet her at the dawning,
Of the resurrection day.
When the Lord shall come in glory,
With u loved ones gone before.
Then beyond life's finished story,
We shall meet to part no more.
AUNT JETTIE.

StoneWaII Jackson Institute
For Young Ladies.
Abingdon, Va.

One of the surest signs of the
development Of the South is the
prosperity of it's schools. We note
with real congratulation the sue
cess of Stonewall Jackson 1nsti-
tute for Young Ladies, at Abing'
don, Virginia.
There are few schools, if any,
in the country that are doing a
greater work for our girls. The
teachers come into close personal
touch with them, thus creating a
real home atmosphere. In a
quiet, unostensible way, the
school impresses it's stamp OF cul-
ture, refinement and high chris
tan character upon the pupils.
It has a high curriculum, ex-
cellen1. advantages in music, and
the usual extras required in
schools for girls; and in addition,
it is l:eeping abreast with the
deman DIS of the times and the
change, ID conditions in the south
by ha wing an industrial depart
ment, in which cooking; sewing
and wood carving are taught
practice lily.
Abins .don ranks first in health
in the state of Virginia according
to the statistical report of the
year, anil the school has always
been noted for the care taken OF
the h ealtll of it's pupils.
Ur!der the present admlnlstra-
ton, improvements have been
made amounting to $40. 900. 90,
and m ore are contemplated.
This excellent institution be-
longs to the Abingdon Presby-
terry, lot to private individuals,
and is run for the benefit of the
people, and not as a money max
ing ma chine; hence the low price

SEMINARY STUDENTS RECEIVED
The President Exhorts Them to Try
to Make the World Better.

Dean Crawford and the students and fac
ulty of the Virginia Theological Seminary,
located near Alexandria, Va, were received
by President Roosevelt yesterday afternoon
in the east room Of the White House. They
We're introduced by Rev. Dr. Silas McBee,
editor of the Churchman of New York. The
arrangements for the reception, which was
purely informal, were made by DR.. McBee,
who had told the President how greatly in
tereSted the students OF the seminary were
in the work of the government. President
Roosevelt extended to each of the callers
a cordial personal greeting and then adj
dressed them as follows:
ut Is a very great pleasure to meet this
body today. l have to work in great
many different parts of our country, and
under a great many different conditions, and

man who has a spiritual side and vet Is not

man who is not a prig who counts for most
as a focus in the higher life, which, II 1t Is
not represented in the several communities,
will not be represented in the nation. l feel
that each man here should leave this semi
nary feeling that It behooves him to try
to be such a focus, such a center or the
right kind of spiritual and social life and
he should do all that in him lies. with
feryor and also with sanity-I need not say
to any older man here that the more fervor

il is for you--to try to make things little
better in this great country or ours

ISTHMIAN SANITATION.
Not Case of Yellow Fever Was Re-
ported in November,


The isthmian canal commission has just
published the report of DR.. Gorgas, chief
sanitary officer Of the canal zone, upon the
health conditions there up to the beginning
of December last. DR.. Gorgas says that
there was not a single case Of yellow fever
In the zone during the month of November,
but as a matter of precaution fumigation of
the hotels at the larger camps and places
where the non-immune employees congre-
gate has been carried on. There has been
a slight decrease in the number of malarial
cases reported by the sanitary inspectors.
The great majority of these cases occurred
among the more recent arrivals of Martini
ique laborers Considerable extra and I'M
necessary work was required in the towns
where the American population live, and
the grounds around those quarters had to
be policed again and again because the
men scattered about the premises tin cans,
garbage, etc. In that respect they were
more careless than the Jamaican or the
Martinique laborerS.
The waterworks department on Decem-
Der 1 was piping good water into
great many Of the camps in the zone, but
service pipes and hydrants for general dis
tribution were lacking. Many other camps
depend upon the rainfall for their water
supply and it was stated that in January,
when the dry season sets in, they will have
to look to the various springs or the
Chagres river for water
The work Of draining the northern section
of Colon, nearest the hospital. is being
pushed as rapidly as the weather permits
and much of the swamp land is cleaned as
the tide recedes, leaving the surroundings
In much more cleanly condition than
when the stagnant and mosquito breeding
pools and the polluted waters remained un--
der and about the houses for days and
weeks. Quinine is being administered to
the laborers at the rate of five grains daily
and the strong protests against taking quiz
nine which were met with at first are now
becoming infreQuent.
