RESOLUTIONS
Adopted by The Methodist Sunday
School, Sunday, July
24th. 1909.

The Spirit said, BLESSED are the
dead that die in the Lord"
A retrospect of the quiet, dignified,
Christian character of Nellie Love,
ass ures US that she is among the dead
who are blessed.
During many months of intense suf-
fering, no complaint was ever uttered,
but her thoughts were turned away
from the body to higher understand
ing of her relation to God, and she
passed into eternity with the full con-
sciousness that she was child of God,
made in His own image and likeness.
Her life was that of loving, duti-
ful daughter, a consistent Christian,
and a loyal worker in our Sunday
School; therefore,
BE 1T RESOLVED: That, in the death
of Nellie Love, the church has lost one
of its truest members, and the Sunday
School, one of its most efficient teech-
ers, one possessing sincere desire to
impart the Truth to those entrusted to
her care; and,
BE 1T RESOLVED: That the exemp-
larry life which she led and the faith
fulness with which she discharged her
duties as pupil and teacher. shall be
held in great remembrance, and that
we shall strive to emulate her lovely
Christian character; and,
BE 1T RESOLVED: That we tender
to her bereaved parents and sister our
sincerest sympathy, and pray that they
may feel the sustaining influence of
Him whose presence is sweetest in
these dark hours of grief; and,
BE 1T RESOLVED: That a copy of
these Resolutions be made in the Sun
day School Record, copy be sent to
the bereaved family,

TAXES Due.

The state and county taxes are
now due and to relieve the sheriff Of
a great responsibility, should be paid
at once. On December l, l, as
sheriff Of Crittenden county, am re-
quired to settle with the state, and
if | should fail to collect these taxes
it would work hardship on me as
we'll as my bondsmen, to have to pay
your taxes. So come up at
once and settle your taxes promptly.
Do not wait for the penalty, or even
a nearness to 1t, but pay them now
if you possibly can.
In the near future | will have
appointments for myself or one Of
my deputies for each precinct and
to meet US at the designated time
and place to receive a clear receipt
for your taxes, will aid your
sheriff more than you may perhaps
imagine.
Now, as my whole desire is to try
to collect the taxes for this year
without a single levy, or even pen
atty, l again urge you to aid me in
this by coming to these places or to
my Office at Marion and settling
same.
Hoping every tax payer of Critten-
den county will aid me by an early
settlement OF the common burden
wrestling upon all In proportion as
God has blessed him,
am yours very respectfully,

TWO.NO-HIT NO-RUR GAMES
First Game With Evansville Resulted
TO 0. The Second With WaVerly
Resulted 5 10 o.

The Evansville High Arts and
Waverly proved easy last Thursday
and Friday for Marion, neither team
being able to make hit or run of
Cooperrider and Kraft. The game
against the High Arts was pitchers
battle all the way through, Marion
making only three hits, and both
sides 6elded in splendid style, cut
ting of many balls that might have
gone for hits. Cooperrider was in
splendid form striking out twenty
men, and having the Evansville bat
ters at his mercy all the time. Only
thee men got to 6rst, one Of these
reaching second, but no one got any
further. The only misplay charged
asainst Marion occurred when Lamb
missed rather wide throw to first
from Rochester in the ninth, outside
of this the fielding Of the locals was
fknltless; that Of the visitors was
equally as good, the only error being
= tumble by the short-stOp Of hard
,hit grounder from Rochester's bat.
Marion scored in the eighth by
punching two Of their three hits
'COoperrider singled, Dixon and Ro-
chester drew their base on balls, fill
ing the bases with no outs; Franks
then came up, and justified his re-
Putation as a safe hitter by beating
out a pretty bunt, on which Cooper
rider scored. Guess then hit into a
double play, pitcher to catcher to
frst, which spoiled MariOu's chances
FOR further scoring; but we had all
'fhtt WAS needed IN win.

CICARET LAW AND

About the nerviest man the state

and their smokers fugitives, is per-
haps ]. r. McKeand, president of
the Benton County Abstract &

lets toward the fly specks on the
ceiling was pitching about on his
nervous lip. Aye. right there in
that imposing edifice, symbolic OF
civic power, he in this ruthless
manner violated the latest style in
law.
He was espied by a deputy sher-
III and hauled before the court,
where he made the plea that what
he was smoking was not a cigaret
as defined by Webster's dictionary.
Webster says a "cigaret is a small
cigar; a little fine tobacco rolled In
paper" and McKeand claims that
what he was smoking did not come
within the meaning of the term
cigaret as defined by Webster. His
claim stumped the authorities, who
have had to take time to look up
the question.

A Piano With
Brains

Yes, in way the genuine Plan
ola Piano has brains-it auto
matically selects the notes of the
melody and accents them, it grad
yates the accompaniment to suit
the melody. However, to play the
Pianola Piano we'll you must couple
your own brain with that of the Pi-,
anola and perhaps this is why you
do not like the Pianola because
you heard someone play it who
did not use their brain.
If the Pianola Piano has not
merit why is it that so many
great colleges and schools are U.s.
ing it to give pupils correct I'M
Outstanding and appreciation of
music?
II the Pianola Piano has no
merit, why is it that an overwhelm-
ing majority of Americas finest
homes own and enjoy them?
If the Pianola Piano has no mer-
it why is it that great artists con-
sent to sing with them in public?
But then, we can scarcely be-
lieve that you do not appreciate
the Pianola Piano, but we would
like to have you come in and let
us demonstrate to you why the
genuine Pianola Piano is so far
superior to other players on the
market. If you really appreciated
all the Pianola Piano offers, moth
ing but financial difficulties would
prevent your owning one, and we
can fix that by our easy payment
plan, and if you have piano now
we will take it In exchange at a
liberal price.
You can't buy the genuine Plan
ola Piano anywhere but at Eilers,
and just now we have an excep-
tionally fine line and are making
special inducements in the way of
exchanges.

FATHER COLLIER SAYS lEGlS-
lATloN AGAINST DIVORCE
MORE NECESSARY THAN
AGAINST WHISKY.

The Gonzaga degree Of bachelor
OF arts was awarded last night to
Marcus Boarman, Rudolph De Mers,
George Gabisch, Thomas Finnegan,
Theodore Huetter, Frank Sexton,
Fred Duren, Frank Rangney and
Walter Tuchscherer, graduating
class OF 1909.
Father Golfers address to the
class was characterized by an argu-
ment against compulsory prohibi-
ton az an infringement on personal
liberty. He did not advise against
total abstinence, but held that the
last legislature had overstepped
the line in various particulars, criti-
cisipg the new marriage regula-
tons and the penalty on cigaret
smoking and the absence Of effort
to abate the divorce evil.
Governor Hay had intended to
address the class, but was prevent
ed by stress of work incident to
the special session of the legisla-
ture next week. Father Collier clos
ed his address with an eloquent ap-
peal to the graduates to live up to
their motto, Deeds, Not Words"
In graduating addresses, Marcus
Bearman and Fred Suren delivered
critiques on Christian Science. Wal
ter Tuckscherer delivered the vale
dictory and Thomas Finnegan the
class poem. Appropriate music &C.
companied the exercises, and a
pleasant feature of the day was the
awarding of medals of merit for
records in various branches of col
lege work.
