Sunday School of Columbia, in memory
of Joe Coffey, Jr.
Since we last assembled here, 10 Cof-
fey, Jr., a member of this school, has
been called from the scenes of this life
to those of the life beyond. His death,
which occurred Tuesday morning of the
past week, after an illness of only a
few hours. comes as profound sorrow
to each one of us.
He had been identified with this
school from his early childhood, and he
was very faithful in his attendance. He
will be greatly missed here and in the
community at large.
CHEEKY, bright and genial. he had a
kindly greeting for every one, old and
young, which brought sunshine with his
presence, and made a multitude OF
friends. Resolved by the school;
That sharing their grief, we extend
to the bereaved parents, the beloved
wife and brothers, our sincere sympa
thy in this their great sorrow, and we
pray that our Heavenly Father may
sustain, strengthen and comfort them
Resolved that this paper be sent te
the family of the deceased and a copy
to the Adiar County News for publica
ton.

Laundry Burned.

The laundry plant which was the
property of Mr.. G. T. Rasner, and To-
Gated on Bomar Heights, was destroy
ed by fire last sunday night, about s
o'clock. Mr.. Rasner says that there
had been no fire in the building since
Friday to his knowledge. Sunday af-
ternoon four or five small boys were
playing in the laundry. and 1t is thought
perhaps they had fire and did not ex-
tinguish it when they left. This how
ever, is merely suposition. The build
ing was insured for $500. The loss is
estimated at $1,000.

Cousin 10 Coffey and family
In the death of young 10 Coffey, 1
desire to say all Columbia is mourning.
10, as his relations and friends called
him, had more good qualities and more
good friends than any young man of
my acquaintance. He had the most
brilliant mind and was the finest con-
versationalist of his age ever met.
He was always friendly and never with
out word of good will or cheer for
those he come in contact with-those
who were so fortunate as to make his
acquaintance and spend short time in
his presence were ever after that glad
that they had met him.
He was said to be the finest business
man in Central Kentucky. His good
qualities, and they could not be num-
bered, so predominated in his makeup
that any defect he might have, and we
ali have some, of one kind and some of
another, that his good qualities over
Swallowed it to that extent that we hard
ly noticed it. His fine looks, his cheer
full disposition and bis friendly meeting
with all people made him a welcome
guest at all homes and gatherings. His
death so shocked me that could hard
ly realize that 10 was dead. He was a
friend and relation that | was proud of.
l had looked forward and expected
great things from him, but death sud
denly caUe when no one expected it
The Lord in his loving kindness anC
tender mercies understands why ne was
taken so young. We do not, but one
thing we do know that the Lord has
never turned deaf ear to his people,
who desire his salvation, and l have
the greatest faith that 10 was saved
and by our blessed Savior who was
never known to refuse any one who
called on him and especially those who
had believed on and accepted Him anG
publicly confessed him by word or by
attaching himself to the church. May
the Lord remember US all in mercy anc
enable US to live IN that manner anc
faith that we will all meet him in q
better land, where we will not have to
say good-by to our loved ones and
friends l assure you mourn with you
in yo1r loss of such good boy.

Black and Blue.

Black combined with royal or natter
blue is popular this season. The great ad-
vantage Of this mixture Of colors is that
it is becoming alike to fair or dark
women, whether young or of advancing
years, and it is always more or less in
favor.
Models OF the great houses are often
simple in design. the reason of their ar
tistic effect resulting from, the DISPOSE
ton Of trimming, so that woman of
moderate income but unerring taste can
work wonders by planning out her own
frocks. For afternoon wear a bit of gold
in addition wonderfully enlivens a dress
and is generally be coming to the complex
ion. Gold embroidery and lace are i'm
mensely in vogue.
If a black house dress be chosen, soften
it with a line of blue at the top Of the
collar. or several rows Of chain stitch in
gilt thread. A gold dangling collar at
the base Of the throat or a turquoise or
aquamarine pendant makes alllblack less
trying and removes the suggestion of
mourning. Unrelieved black is not as a
rule becoming, and least Of all to the
woman past her first youth. Turn. there
fore, to the touch Of blue.

communications. For example. il there is
room on the line merely for the prefix
Mr., Mrs. or Miss" they are carried
definitely, Mr." on one line and Smith"
on the next is incorrect.
A fad that prevails among fashionable
women is that of leaving wide margins
ON the left side Of note paper. When be-
ginning the communication. the MY"
which precedes the Dear Miss Smith. -
is out almost against the edge Of the
paper. But the body of the note keeps
at least an inch from the edge, so that
the My may be said to be in a column
of it's own.
In the new stationery the address no
longer goes at the middle of the top, I'M
less the name of the town Is used below
the street number. In the latter case the
street is in the middle. the town little
indented.
But when the street alone is used it Is
now placed in the upper right corner.
This fad is followed more closely in cor
respondence cards than in notepaper, al
though it is preferred even with the lat
ter.
It is not good form to write the address
on the envelope fap And to put the
postage stamp anywhere but squarely in
the upper right corner is considered in
correct.
For formal note paper gold, silver or
white are preferred for the address stamp
and the monogram. il the latter is used.
For ordinary correspondence dark green
or dark blue are best.
