A TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
A Friend Writes in Memory of the
Late =. 7. Everette.

A Friend Writes in Memory of the
Late p. T. Everette.
On Saturday October l, 1910, our
community was shocked and sad
dened when the news spread that
Mr.. Peter Everette was dead. Mr..
Everette was apparently in the best
of health, and he and his excellent
wife attended the services of his be-
loved church, Chickasawhatchee in
the morning, On their return home
he ate hearty supper, and had
started to Mr.. John Kennedys, a
neighbor nearby, to spend an hour
or so pleasantly, as they often did,
and without a moments warning he
was called to his heavenly home
Mr.. Everette was in his fifty-third
year, and a consistent member of
the Primitive Baptist church. The
highest eulogy of him would be the
naked narrative of his life of simple
goodness. He was man of a warm
and affectionate nature, gentle and
quiet in spirit, and earned his liv-
ing by the sweat of his brow. If
his value were to be measured by
the sense of his loss to his family
his friends and to his church it is
not in the power of language to tell
his worth. There was no sacrifice
he counted not a joy, when made
for his friends; and at his home a
cordial welcome and a bounteOus
board was always found He will
be greatly missed by all, and his
wife and children find sweetest COM
fort in knowing that he had friends,
friends to whom he was always
faithful, loyal and true, and above
all was true to his God. We are
constrained to say: Surely this life
has not been lived in vain. By it's
untimely end we are admonished.
Watch, therefore. for We kno wneith-
er the day, nor the hour wherein the
son of man cometh.'
A good man has gone from our
midst but the Lord did it; it is well.
May His grace enable the broken
hearted wife, his four children, aged
mother, three brothers and sister to
say: Even so, Father, for so seem
eth good in thy sight A FRIEND.

THE LATE b. L. MORELAND,
A Relative Pays Tribute to a Good
Man Who Is Gone.

"A helaCIVe rays tribute to Good
Man Who Is Gone.
AS my thoughts turn to one of my
beloved uncles whom God in His
wisdom has removed from us what
sweeter or more comforting thought
could his loved ones entertain than
that He giveth His beloved sleep?"
And just as truly as Jesus said to
the weeping ones concerning the
miller's daughter, "she is not dead,
but sleepeth," so surely does he
speak to the sorrowing hearts today
concerning him who so recently ap-
preached the grave with unfaIter-
ing trust in his Master. On the
26th day of May, 1910, Uncle Bart
ley L. Moreland fell asleep resting
fondly on the promise.
His was not noisy profession of
religion, but a quiet and abiding
faith in his Master He believed in
God, and it was counted unto him
for righteousness. He had been
consistent member of the Primitive
Baptist church since a young man.
The example of his christian life will
ever remain with those who knew
him as son, father, husband, broth
er, neighbor or friend.
We do not feel that the parting
is for long-"Only goodnight, be-
loved; not farewell; a little while
and his saints shall dwell in hal
lowed union indivisible."
Hebrew " 8: There remaineth
therefore a rest to the people of
God"
There shall battle my weary
soul in seas of heavenly rest, and
not wave of trouble roll across my
peaceful breast.
Notwithstanding our natural grief
we know that ''the Judge of all the
earth will do right" and "alI things
work together for good to them that
love God" A niece, ANNIE MAE.

Tact in Calling.

1t requires tact to be a strict yet pop
uar mother of grown daughter. for
to steer between the points of being too
much in evidence and-no sufficiently SO
requires thought. etiquette and common
sense.
1t is true that the continued presence
of an older person acts something as a
kill-joy to younger ones. so parents need
not he in the room all the time. for girls
must learn through experience to be easy
and gracious hostesses. an art they will
not acquire if it is always done for them.
Good form demands that a man, when
calling upon an unmarried woman, living
with her parents or guardians. shall send
a card to them. For him to omit this
courtesy is the height of rudeness or ig-
norance Of good manners. and in either
case he can be severely criticised. When
the card is sent the mother or father
goes ito the reception room and remains
for ten minutes or more, but ten minutes
is long enough. 1t is not necessary that
both parents shall see the caller One is
enough, and neither goes in with the
daughter. Whichever decides to be pres
ent follows ten or fifteen minutes after
the young hostess.
AS soon as the older person enters she
or. he is included in the conversation If
some one SPECIAL topic is under discussion.
she is told what it is. SO she can take up
the thread where her entrance broke it
off.
To ignore the presence of an older per-
son, talking on subjects of which he or
she has no knowledge, is nothing less
than boOrish.
The parent or guardian, after taking
part in the conversation for short time
excuses himself herself. This fndi.
vidual does it frankly, making no pretext
of trying to slip out. The woman or man
! rises and says good night to the caller
saying that it has been pleasant to see
him. and she or he hopes the caller will
come again soon. Then the parent asks
him to excuse her BY the fact that she
has gone into the room. and been cordial
to the guest. she has expressed her ap-
prevail of his acquaintance. If she does
not like him and prefers that her daugh-
ter should not know him, she remains
in the room throughout the entire visit
