IN MEMORIAM.

In sad but loving remembrance of our dear son
HOWARD E. AFTER, who departed this life, one year
ago, May 20, 1906
The depth of our sorrow no tongue can tell,
At the loss of the one we loved so well;
While he lies in peaceful sleep,
Loving remembrance of him we will faithfully
keep.
One year has passed but still we miss him;
Friends may think the wound is healed
But they little know the sorrow
That is in our heart concealed.
He will never be forgotten,
Never shall his memory fade,
Sweetest thoughts shall ever linger,
Round the grave where he is laid.
Home was pleasure when you were here,
Howard dear, so kind and dear,
None but others who have lost one,
Could our grief and sorrow know.
BY HIS PARENTS
One year without his loving face,
A year of Loneliness, grief and pain,
But still we smile amid our tears in thinking,
Our loss is but his gain.
Farewell dear brother thou art al rest,
And shall forever be,
You could not stay on earth with us,
But we can come to thee. BY HIS SISTER

The pathos of Mrs. McKinley's life

of her two children in their infancy,
and of her mother during the same

a century she has been an invalid, but
no amount of suffering could mar the
beauty and tenderness of her character

she could do. When the assassin's

MoNTGoxERY,s SCHOOL NEEDS.


The annual message of the Board of
CT. a copy of which appeared in The
Advertiser last Sunday. IS a document
of much interest and great Importance
to the citizens OF Montgomery. The
recommendations relating to the new
High School for girls and boys is of
vital concern to this community. and
the city. administration should pro-
coed as speedily as possible to carry
them into effect It Is rumored that
the bonds ordered by special election
last summer for the purpose of build
"a, he new high school are defective
on account of some legal technicality.
II this be true, why bubble over this
point, rather than cancel the invalid
L Ids and proceed to another special
election. TIL &c, can be question
that the voters of this city would
authorize the Issue of bonds for a need
so paramount as the proper training
of our future men and women.
But even with the new high school
b lding well under way of construc-
ton il could not hoped to have it
completed for another lear. 1t is
necessary, therefore, to provide some
relief at the present Girls High School
building on Lawrence street in order
that the good work being done may
not be seriously handicapped the COM
ing school year. 1t is the opinion of
the Board of Education that two rooms
should be added at once to the one
story part of the Lawrence street
building. The present crowded con-
ditioI in the Girls High school with
the increase for the next school year,
will make conditions intolerable IL no
relief is given. Other important re-
pairs are urged by the board at the
val .ous school buildings. For the
sake of the good name of Montgom-
cry, The Advertiser would point to
the Importance of the suggestions of
the Board of Education and call the
attention OF the Mayor and City
Council and every loyal citizen of our
town to the necessity of satisfying
these imperative needs, Tho very life
and progress of our city are linked
with the highest, best and most efficient
standard of the public schools.

The Montgomery advertiser., 1907-05-30

from The Pittsburg Sun is not with
out both interest and Significance:
For a long time cotton seed oil was
exported from this country bottled
abroad and returned either mixed or
pure food regula lions have largely put
stop to this fraud, which was once
thought to be injurious as well. Now
q government expert says that cotton
seed oil is equal in purity and health
fulness to the best olive oil. If the
American people were not such slaves
to mere names, big, market for
created, and in this commodity. a
source of great profit to French and
Italian producers of olive oil would
be transferred to American enterprise.
We suppose there is no doubt about
pure cotton seed oil being wholesome
We suppose there is also no doubt
that pure olive oil is equally SO. TO
go a little further it is safe TO as
sumo that II either of these ellis is
aduiterated it may be not only I'M
wholesome but dangerous, Then we
90 on another step and say that there
is not as much pure olive ell produced
10 the world as Is alleged to be sold
to the American people.
This being So 1t necessarily follows
that very much of the article sold to
us as pure olive oil is something else.
If foreigners bought our pure cotton
seed oil and resold it to us under an
other name, without adding anything
hurtful or unwholesome to 1t, no harm
would be done except that we would
be swindled by paying an enhanced
price for our own goods, and be de-
luded into paying for something we
do not get But IL anything injurious
Is added and the stuff then returned
to us we are not only swindled but may
be something worse.
All this being likewise true the oh
vious and sensible remedy is for the
American people to keep their cotton
seed oil at home. have it purified and
fitted for table use and then use it..
IT the people could become convinced
that the olive oil they are using is
really the product of the cotton plant,
they could save much money and also
be in less danger of eating something
not good for the health. 1t would
create a greater demand for cotton
tho cotton growers, besides assuring
them that their health is not endAn-
gered. Why not?
