JAMES SAYS DEATH
AND FUNERAL
Was Among the Earliest Settlers
Of This Vicinity.
Came to White Plains Nearly Half
Century Ago and has Resided in
this Part of State Ever
Since.

Last Sunday morning, as the dawn
of new day was breaking over the
eastern hills, the spirit of life depart
ed from its temple of clay and the
watchers who were tenderly caring
for James Say gently whispered He
is dead
Though his health had been very
poorly for some time past and it had
been feared that the trouble might
prove fatal at any time, still there
had seemed to be, during the previous
ten days, a renewing of vitality and
hopes were entertained of a tempor-
AIRY recovery.
The first of the previous week Mr..
Say though past % years of age, had
gone with B, c. Maris to the ranch at
White Plains, had met Mr. Morrow,
of the gypsum company and gone
with him up over the mountain near
the ranch and examined deposit of
gypsum which Mr.. Morrow was desir-
ous of purchasing for his company.
That did not look much like failing vi
tality, yet in less thar a week Mr..
Say lies in the cold embrace of death.
He has climbed the mountain heights

The farmers all over this eoun-
try must leave comfortable, well
heated, well lighted, carpeted
homes and drive in their surreys

churches. 'Tis no wonder they
prefer to stay at home on a cold,

day. The contrast is too great.

tenee when Bro. Browning asked
me to write few words about the
good accomplished by the Foreign
Missionary Societies in the local
churches.
The Foreign Missionary Societies
have taken the women and children
of the church, and trained them in
parliamentary usages, have broad
ened their sympathies and also
widened their intellectual horizon
by the study, of foreign lands.
Spirituality has been developed.
In our Mexico church we have re-

nearly all the women of the church
in the Foreign Missionary Society,
almost every leader for these pray
er meetings was a member of the
Foreign Missionary Society. 1t
is well known fact that where our
missionary societies are strongest
the conference collections are cas-
ier to raise. s,~.
The greatest good accomplished
by the Foreign Missionary Socie-
ties has been in eultivating a will
lmgness to give self away. It
meant much to Southern Method
ism when the women of our beau
tiful Southland, who have been in
dulged, tlattered and petted as no
other women in the world have
been, We're willing to sacrifice their
time and their luxury in the SER
vice of humanity. When more of
our women are willing to use their
training and culture and money,
not for selfish ease or pleasure, but
will conseerate themselves to the
work of uplifting their suffering
brothers and sisters, we shall have
more of the spirit of the Christ
who gave Himself away, in all
.Onr churches. OF all our Chris
tian work, foreign missions is the
most Christ-like because it consists
in loving those whom we have not
seen, but for whom Christ died.

published in Mexico. They are all

terest to all our readers:
FARMING THE CHURCH. By C. NJ. A.
No one is quite so deserving of
censure as a lazy farmer who al
lows his barns to cave in, his
fences fall down and his fields
grow over with weeds and under
brush, If such farmer should
complain that his sheds were roof
less, his cribs empty, his cattle un-
Ned, his servants unpaid, would not
one be justified in saying, "Sir, if
you would bestir yourself all this
could be avoided'2 If the farm is
ever to become a source of revenue
instead of a burdensome expense,
it must be farlned.
AS little as we may think about
it the same commonsense principles
apply to the church. In order that
your church may prosper it must
be farmed. There is just as much
reason for farmer to expect full
corncribs and fat cattle and a
handsome income from farm all
grown over with hazel brush and
eockle-burs, as for a pastor or lay
man to expect q live and flourish
ing church from an indolent, in
active membership. If the men,
bers are too exclusively engaged
in worldly affairs to give some of
their time to Gultivating and main
tanning Sunday Schools, Epworth
Leagues, Missionary Societies, etc,
they need expect nothing but a
dead church. 1t will prosper in
proportion to the amount of labor
and self-sacrifce the membership
is willing to expend upon it.
During the coming year of 1907
try farming your church, and see
what the result will be. You will
find that your love for her will
grow stronger and her power in
her community will be greatly in
creased AND her influence widened.
Instead of doing as little as You
possibly can for the church and
ease your conscience, try to do al
You possibly can, for it is. worthy

A Case Againgtthe Mod
ern Woodnen in Mon
roe County.

Paris, Mo-, December pa
case of widespread interest in Mod.
eru Woodmen of America circles
was decided in the circuit court at
Paris this afternoon after the long.
est aud most stubbornly contested
legal battle waged at this place in
recent years. A verdict of $2l00
was rendered in favor of the plain
tiff. Mrs. William White. White
was killed on a railroad near st.
Louis three years ago.
When his wife attempted to col
lect his policy for $4,000 the organ.
izatiou resisted payment on the
ground that his failure to pay
the last assessment rendered the
policy void. The plaintiff denied
having received notice of the time
when the assessment would fall
due, and further cOntended that
the assessment would have been H.
legal in any event because of the
fact that it was made in December
for payment in January, a raise in
the rate being made for the latter
month. The entire case, however,
finally hinged upon a rasolutio n
adopted by llip camp, of which
White was Gmember, authorizing
its clerk to pay one assessment for
any of its members to keep in
force policy which otherwis e
would lapse. This was not done
in the case of White, otherwise
his assessment would have sbeeli
paid up at the time of his death,
even though he had received no.
tice and had neglected to make his
own payment.
1t was further shown in evidence
that Mr. White had sent his son
to the home of the camp clerk to
pay this assessment, but the clerk
was away at the time. The court
took the ground that, even tho
White may have failed to receive
legal notice or may have fail ed TO
pay his assessment in the required
time, he would have remained in
good standing during the period
covered by one assessmen +. had

them over the ordinary Fabric
gloves, wrinkle 'em and they look
for all the world like the 10 and 20

idea is this: The tops" can be
