A Useful Citizen Gone.

Jack Hamilton McMath, son of DR.. J.
H. and Mrs. Pennie B. McMath, was
born January "a, 1858, at Walnut Hill,
Ark, and died from acute appendicitis
at sanitarium in Shreveport August
20, 1911.
He was married to Julia Robertson at
Bodcau December %, 1889.
All of his mature life was spent here
in Bossier Parish and never knew any,
thing morally wrong in the conduct OF
Jack. He was good son to both moth
er and mother-in-law, an effectionate
and thoughtful husband and a devoted
and indulgent father.
He left five children-three tender and
loving daughters, and two little boys
who will miss him sadly.
Circumstances required him to be alb
sent from his family during the week,
but the Homecoming on Saturday even
ing or Sunday morning was joy to
father and children. How expecantly
happy would they watch for his coming
and how they reveled in the elimination
of that happiness.
All this is changed now. Jack has
gone from US forever. But God, who is
merciful and so full of compassion is
able to save to the uttermost. We hope
and believe that Jack is with his sainted
wife on Gods happy shore.
Dear children, we leave you in the
care of your loving and thoughtful
grandmothers and commend you to our
Heavenly Father, who has promised to
be father to the fatherless. May his
strong arms encircle us all, and, oh God
help each of us to lean in faith on thy
Everlasting Arms"
The funeral services were conducted
by Rev. ]. G. Sloan at the home, where
large company of relatives and friends
had gathered, in loving respect. A long
procession followed the remains to ole
Fillmore Cemetery, where they were
placed by the side of his wife, who hai

The Ladies Urged to Exhibit.


To the Ladies of Bossisr Parish
Now is the time to get in readiness
articles to be exhibited at our Parish
Fair, to be held during October.
The Board of Directors has observed
each year the zealousness shown by the
ladies in our department, so has en-
larged our opportunities by extending
our premium list. Please look carefully
over the list and see if there is not one
or several exhibits you can enter to help
make our department better this year
than ever before.
The culinary exhibit last year was in
comparable, both in quality and guam
tity. This year we havn't the abund-
ance of fruit as last year, but the quality
is excellent, and very many toothsome
articles can be made by the skilful house,
wife.
Vegetables are in abundance and we
hope to see splendid collection of them,
both canned and in the crisp, fresh
state.
Now, we see further down the list
Vulnerable articles of needlework-
dainty and beautiful to the articles
of adornment and decoration, which
swell the heart with delight to possess,
and many practical garments for every
day use.
The young girls under thirteen years
of age are generously remembered. Let
me urge the girls to fill their list to over
flowing, thus inducing an increase to
their line of premiums for another year
The old ladies, too, are remembered, bu,
not as largely as we wish, for many o.
them, with their deft fingers, delight il
making articles at beauty and comfort
i The ladies have ample time before tn,
fair opens to get their exhibits ready TO
a display which will merit the admira
ton of every visitor to the fair grounds
;. Bear in mind that preserves an,
pickles are preferred in pint jars, cannes
fruits and vegetables in quart jars ant
jelly in glasses.
Any one wishing to make entries VIII
has not received catalogue should writ
to the Secretary, Mr.. w. ]. Dawson Q
Benton, and he will supply you. Send t
him for your entry tags before the fai
opens so that each article may be place
on exhibition as soon as it reaches th
grounds.
The Superintendents of the Women
Department will be on the ground
: Monday previous to the opening of til
fair and will receive all entries at thu
5 time. Cakes and breads will be receive
, Tuesday before twelve o'clock.
Now, we urge you to be prompt
. sending any exhibit you may have, thu
making our duties less tedious and en-
. abling us to serve each one alike.
