her spirit winged it's flight to Heaven

the only daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
John d. Power
Being reared in an ideal Christian
nome she was taught from childhooG
TO reverence the name OF God. and
in her early girlhood years accepted
Jesus as personal Saviour, united
with Highland Home Baptist church.
and since that time has walked i'm
close relationship with the Master.
Five years ago she was married tt
Earle c. Owens. Being the only liv-
ing child she had previous to this
time been shielded by a most devoted
rather and mother from all the hard
ships of life. her every wish was. al
most anticipated and gratified So she
entered into her married life without
tlnge OF sadness to mar her happi-
ness, but God had planned that. hence

place OF the sunshine Scarcely had
the Orange blossoms faded from her
brow, when the angel of death enter

dear father. in two years from this
time her mother went Home. aiId since
then, little babe has been taken from
her arms, and increased her treasures
In Heaven. Truly she must have been
precious in the sight of the Lord, for
whom He loveth, He chasteneth, and
scourgeth everyone that He receiveth.

The xationaI-"The Harvest Moon"

Augustus Thomas latest successful
drama. THE Harvest Moon comes TO
the National the week of January 81,
with the same admirable company that
has been presenting the play in New
York at the Garrick Theater for the past
four months THE Harvest Moon is
said to exemplify the fine craftsmanship
of Augustus Thomas, which won him
enduring fame with THE Witching
Hour" and other notable contributions
to American dramatic literature. The
Harvest Moon" marks a distinct advance
in Mr. Thomas work as an author. and
it opens up new field for the dramatist
which will doubtless inspire other plays
of an equally elevating type. The domi-
nant figure in the play is the French
aUtOcrat, Monsieur Vavin. who combines
the highest and finest traits Of a true
nobleman with the deep insight and
scientific acumen Of a Gallo scientist.
This character has enabled George Nash
to score a decisive triumph. Adelaide
Nowak, Jennie Eustace, Margaret Sayres,
the veteran John Saville, John Stokes,
Thomas Russell, and stephen Wright are
some of the other admirable players en-
listed in the production Of The Harvest
