Carve not upon a stone when am dead
The praises which reinorseful mourners give
To women's graves-a tardy recompense-
But speak them while live"
A most enjoyable social event was
| rendered the writer at her home on
Monday afternoon by the Co-Workers
Circle of the Cumberland Presbyterian
Church. By a happily devised ruse she
was detained at her home at the time Of
starting to the church for the regular
| Monday afternoon meeting, and on an
swering a summons to the front door
she was met by twenty-four happy,
smiling faces. After the first rush Of
glad surprise was over, all were seated
while the devotional and business exer-
cises were conducted. The meeting was
then turned into social hour. The
new president, Mrs. Prieto, was at her
best, and presided with that happy fac
ulty that adds so much to the social
features. By request of the president,
Mrs. NJ E. Edwards, our vice-presi-
dent, arose and in very touching and
impressive talk, presented the retiring
president a handsome Bible. Oh, that
this pen could express the appreciation
of the recipient of this loving token,
4 given by her faithful co-workers who
for six years have walked so faithfully
by her side in sunshine and in shadow.
l leave that for the recording angel, for
it will be said of them, Ye did it unto
one of the least of mine" when the
gates are opened wide. While this was
the browning feature it was not the clos
ing feature of the surprises in store foI
her. The ladies began to HE them
selves about and it seemed as if some
magician had welded his wand over the
home. Napkins were seen futtering
around like white winged birds and soon
dishes of ice cream and cake, delicious
fruit and candies were served in album
dance. Oh, how happy was that hour
for all This was.one occasion in which
1t is more blessed to give than to re.
ceiye" was not the experience of the
writer, for none could have been sc
happy as she. We enjoyed the pres
ence of pastor, Bro. Hudgins, and wife,
and the only regret was that all of the
thirty EIGHT members of the Circle were
not present. The afternoon will ever
remain a bright spot on memory;

Gone to Rest.

Il
Mrs. Sallie NJ Stone departed this
earthly life and assembled upward TO
enter into and rest in that beautiful
mansion prepared for her by Jesus
Christ the Saviour whom she SO dearly
loved and so faithfully served from her
early girlhood to the age Of more than
three score years and ten. Mrs. Stone
(familiarly known as Aunt Sally was
a most devoted and consecrated follower
of the meek and lowly Jesus. She be-
ing richly possessed of his mind aud
spirit, she, like him, was always found
doing good 1t was source OF her
greatest delight and happiness to adj
minister comfort or aid to the distressed.
Ii twas sickness, sorrow or poverty she
was always first to offer her services, or
if need be, give literally Of her means
to their support. She made it point
in life to make inquiry and to employ
means to know if there very any within
her bounds that needed assistance such
as she could render, so that many who
have suffered in different ways and been
relieved can rise up to-day and say,
Blessed be the name of Aunt Sally. -
Mrs. Stone joined the M. E. Church
South when in early girlhood and was
always a most useful member 1t was
always inspiring to the preacher and to
the congregation to see her occupying
her place in all our church services.
Her moral influence over those with
whom she was associated, and her neigh
bors, was so very great that many per-
sons have been more devoted christians
by having been under her influence.
Mrs. Stone was the mother of five
sons and one daughter, Mrs, Ollie Tur-
ner, who preceded her to the glory land
about seven years ago. The five sons.
yet live to mourn their irreparable loss
in the arduous responsibilities of a
mother. She was eminently successful.
The FIVE sons are all men of families
with pure and stainless characters.
As neighbor there was none better.
We all loved her dearly and all feel that
in her going we have suffered the loss
of our dearest friend and neighbor In
her death the whole county why sympa-
thize with the bereayed ones has suf-
fered severe blow
She was laid to rest in her new tomb
in Union City Cemetery May 4, 1909,
