Resolutions.

In memory Of Robert H. Harper,
who was killed instantly on April IA,
1911, while attempting to cross the
railroad track near the depot in this
city.
His sudden and unexpected death
was great shock to the community.
One moment in the enjoyment OF
health and in the next his spirit had
gone to God, who gave it His Mas
ter's finger touched him and he slept.
Brother Harper who was pure in spirit,
blameless in life and crowned with no.
bic manhood, was crushed like the lily
beneath the ploughshare, and we stand
before the open grave aghast at Gods
decree. Thoroughly unselfish, gener-
GUS and sympathetic he had many
friends and no enemies.
The hopes that are frosted, the
hearts that are broken, the ties that are
sundered, the home that is desoIate rem
der his death unusually sad and touch
ing God moves in a mysterious way
his wonders to perform. Let us hope
and believe that the incense OF his
consistent Christian life may long be
redolent Of blessings and may they an
innate the life and character OF the be-
reaved ones he left behind. Another
jewel is added to Heavens bright
crown and another sweet spirit is watch
ing and waiting
when death strikes down the true and good
From every fragile form. which he lets the
parting spirit free,
An hundred virtues rise
In shapes of mercy charity and love
To walk the vaulted skies
OF each and every tear,
That sorrowing mortals shed on such green
graves
Some good is born, some gentier nature comes"
Be it Resolved, That in the death Of
Robt. H. Harper the community has
lost a good citizen, the church to which |
he belonged faithful and God-serying
member, the official board one who was
always at his post of duty and dis
his every obligation with fideli-
ty and Christian service.
Resolved, That we bow in humble
to this dispensation Of Gods
providence The Lord giveth and the
Lord taketh away"
Resolved, That we extend tender,
loving sympathy to his two children,
Harry and Lola, who are left without
father or mother and commend them TO
Him who said, Il will be father to
the fatherlesss" and his relatives and
friends to Him that said, 10; / am
with you always"
Resolved, That a copy be sent to the1
Presbyterian at Nashville,
Tenn, and TO the city papers for publ
,ation and that page OF the session
book be set apart to his memory and a
,opy be furnished his children
By order Of the official board Of the
Cumberland Presbyterian Church, I'M

THE CHILD MOVEMENT IN TEXAS
Populating rural Texas with city
born babies is a feature of the back
to-the-farm movement that merits en-
enlargement, albeit it wrenches all
our sensibilities to part with the tots.
For one thing, the little folks are
spared the pain of parting with life
long friends and associations, while
growing up with the country from
babyhood manifestly has it's advant-
ages over beginning life anew after
the habits of city life once have been
formed. The baby immigrant grows
up as if to the manner born, while its
elders who seek to better their con-
dition are slow to accommodate them.
selves to the new life Too often they
fail altogether, and drift back to the
city the worse for the venture.
1t might be urged against the tiny
newcomers that years must elapse be-
fore they can begin to recompense in
a pecuniary sense the good people
into whose hands fate consigned them,
but this argument loses force in face
af the fact that what they have con
tributed to the cheer and sunshine of
hitherto childless homes offsets the
monetary point of view a thousand
fold. Anyway, in the end they will
have justified the outlay by their own
toll and thus doubly repaid their bene-
factors.

What Marathon" Means

There is some doubt among the
local runners as to the meaning Of
the word Marathon and why the long
distance race came to be so named.
To these as well to a great many 9TH
ers interested in athletics, the follow
ing historical sketch will be of in
terest:
Marathon was plain on the north
east coast of Attica, containing four
characterization, Probalinthos, Tri-
corythos, and Oinoe, which formed a
tetrapolis (city containing four towns).
It was divided from the plain of
Athens by Mt Pentelicus and the billy
district of Diacria, and was in the
early period an autonomous state. Aft
er it became incorporated in the Attica
state, it retained something of it's orig
inal distinctive character. The wor-
ship of Apollo had its first home in
Attica here, and it was carried thence
TO Athens when the tetrapolis was
made part of the Athenian common
wealth. The district was one of the
chief seats of the worship of Hercules,
and boosted that it was the first place
where he had been worshipped as a
god Hence, legend localized here sew
eral events in the story of Heraclidae
descendants of Hercules), and espe-
cially the self-sacrifice of Macaria,
daughter of Hercules. The legend of
.Theseus was also known in the dis
trict; here the hero slew the Mara
thonian bull. The plain derived its
fame chiefly from the battle in which
the Athenians and Plataeans under
Miltiades defeated the Persians 400
