Domestic Science

Domestic Science should be
made part of the course Of
study for the Jefferson Public
School before the beginning of
the term 1928. If the sum of
$500 can be raised for this pur-
pose, the State will give the same
amount. A teacher is needed a:
present to relieve the crowded
rooms. This could be done and
still devote several hours each
day to teaching domestic science
This work in our schools has
come to stay; why should we lag
behind? In meeting of the
Association of Collegiate Alum
nae last week in New York, it
was decided, that the academic
standing of women is equal to
that Of men, but that it would be
best for women to have a differ
ent course Of study in colleges.
They endorsed what President
Elliott said five years ago, You
have proved that you can do
what men do, now lend your
strength and study to securing
for women opportunities for
study of what affects them vital
ly-such subjects as hygiene,
biology, sanitation and the home
and the family in their economic
aspects" President Harper has
expressed similar ideas.
We do not want to lessen in
tellectual advancement, but add
training that will make better
homes.

The Mothers Club held its
regular meeting Nov, 3. Six new
members were enrolled. making
the total enrolment forty six.
Measures were taken to observe
a tree planting day Nov. "a. The
school will furnish an appropri-
ate program.
The club condoned the manner
in which the boys observed Hal
loween, as the destruction of
property should not be regarded
as fun.
Action will be taken to create
sentiment throughout the town
against cigarette smoking The
preachers will be asked to preach
against the habit. 1t is believed
that David Stars Jordan was
right, when he said, The boy
who smokes cigarettes need not
enquire about his future, he has
none"
The mothers Club and the w.
G. 4. U. have planned a program
to commence the warfare against
the use of the cigarette.
Interest in the playground
movement is growing. Several
swings and benches have been
promised. Mesdames Whelan,
KEGS and Wise were appointed a
playground committee. Anyone
who is willing to furnish rope
for a swing, money for see saw
or seat, may make it known to
the committee.
The club will show it's interest
in the sewing done in the schools
of the county by Offering a silver
thimble for the best work shown
at the close of the term.

OBITUARY

The Death Angel has again
visited our communicate Smith
land and taken from our midst
the well-known and highly es-
teemed j. II. McNeely, who died
very suddenly at the home of
Mr.. Sharp about eight miles
from his home, on October 30,
aged 81 year 6 months and 10
days. He was born in Lime.
stone county, Alabama, April 10,
1S49, but his parents move to
Giles county, Tenn, when he was
young and he spent his youth
near ElktOn in the same county.
He protested religion at the age
|of eighteen, united with the
Methodist Episcopal church
in the year 1881 and lived con
sistent member ever since. He
has been a steawrd in his church
ever since he joined, with the ex-
ception Of six years. He was a
great church worker and when
he was so suddenly called home
he was found at his post, having
just returned from the last quar-
terly meeting for the present
year. His death was such a
shock to the whole community
that it has left wound that will
not soon be healed. He leaves a
wife and four children to mourn
the loss that none but a wife and
children can feel. He was a de-
voted husband, a kind and loving
father, a jealous christian and
neighbOr. He has been our Sun.
day School superintendent for
several years and it will be hard
to fill the vacancy. His home
was the preachers home. He
was optimistic in his views,
cheerful, and a more loyal man

pier than in discussing religious
topics. We will miss him, but
like ST. Paul, he fought good
fight and kept the faith" and
was ready to receive the crown
which was laid up for him.
How the loving wife does miss
him; how his dear children miss
his loving counsel. But thanks
be to God, who giveth us the
victory through our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ.
Cheer up, sad hearts, you
know your loved one is safe in
the keeging of Jesus Christ, who
sustained him in this tempestous
life and was with him when he
laid his armor down, to pass be
You'd the shadows, will guide
your feet all the way and you
shall meet to part no more.
The funeral services were held
at Trinity church, conducted by
Bro. Mathewson. A large crowd
attended the services, which
was very touching and impress
sive. He was laid to rest in the
Trinity graveyard, there to await
the Resurrection Morn.
May the God whom he served
comfort the sorrowing relatives,
is the prayer Of one who has
known him for years.
