GRAND JUNCTION. COLO.

On May 3, Mrs. Pandora Brown
mother Of Mrs. J. H. Newman OF this
city, died at her home in Paris. Mo-
at the age OF 73 years. She had been
q resident of Paris for 40 years and
was an old and honored member OF
the A. M. E. church.
The deceased had been feeble for a
number OF years, suffering from par.
alysis and though her death had been
expected for some time the blow is
none the less hard to bear by those
left to mourn her. In losing her we
might justl ysay. "Our loss is heavens
gain" She leaves two daughters,
Mrs. Newman and Mrs. Steve Smith
Of Chicago. two sons. Mr.. John r.
Carter and Mr.. Preston Brown. both
of Paris. besides three sisters and a
host of warm friends as she was be-
loved by all who knew her. Her death
is made doubly sad by the death OF
Mrs. Mariah Petit. a sister. at the age
Of SO years. The two sisters were
laid to rest. side by side. the latter
dying only two days before the
former.
In her double beheavement, Mrs
Newman has the sympathy Of the
community.

ance at the IL o'clock service. The
pastor preached from Rom. 14:19.
Let us. therefore, follow after the
things which make for peace and the
things whereby one may edify an

The Sewing Circle met Friday be-
fore last at the home of Mrs. Mary

the church, is already laying plans to
meet its portion of responsibility in
the coming Fall Rally.
That faithful band of women who
make up the Willing Workers truly
merit the name they bear. They are
not only willing but keep constantly
at it. Their permanent meeting place
Is at the home of Sister Banion

Thursday evening they will be found
diligently doing their part toward
building up the temporal affairs OF the
