Death OF Mrs. s...on. :. o.s,...

The funeral services of Mrs. S. F.
Dubree were held at the late res
idence on San Juan avenue, last
Monday. The remains were taken
to Fairmount cemetery. Denver, the
following day.
Mrs. Dubree was born in War
rington township. Pennsylvania,
April 81. 1S47. She was married
January 4th. 1871. to Mr.. Jacob Du-
bree. The home circle included two
children. Walter. Of this city. and
Miss Carrie. who passed on to the
homeland January IL. 1889. There
remain of the original family two
brothers, Charles Fox. of La Junta,
and George L. Fox, Of Camben. New
Jersey.
In girlhood Mrs. Dubree united
with the Reformed Dutch church.
For health reasons the family moved
to Las Vegas where they resided
some six years. subsequently coming
to La Junta in the summer of 1899.
at which time Mrs. Dubree united
with the local Presbyterian church,
and proved an esteemed and worthy
member. Her devotion to her
church. her quie. and unassuming
manner, her interest in the things
that make for human betterment
tell of a beautifrl life that has
passed on. 1t was fitting that such
a life should find the demise one of
joy. and should quietly. without
struggle. simply fall asleep in
Jesus" as she did on last Sunday.
The sympathy Of many friends are
with the family thus bereaved.

Family Anniversaries.

"Thanksgiving and Christmas,
wedding days and birthdays, are
occasions that should lever be me-
elected in the life of the family"
Writes Margaret j.. Sangster in
WoMAN's HOME COMPANION for
June. "Even though the married
children go far from the early
home, living in widely separated
ncighborhoods, they should make
an effort to get together at stated
intervals, and 80 long as their par
ents live, the old home, with it's
dear memories, should draw them
like a magnet to it's hearth. Lit.
tie consins ought to know one an
other and be acquainted as broth
ers and sisters re-. When long
trips across the continent involve
too great an expense for frequent
visits, there is always the letter
box on the street corner or the
rural free delivery, and the post
may be trusted to carry love mes
sages safely from Maine to Gala.

fell on his knees and thanked God
for having heard his prayer for

home and helpless, and Of hungry
little children and asked Gods bles-

placed the two dollars in his shoes.
