The WOman'S Club Held
Final Meeting Of Year

The Woman's Club held its final
meeting of the year at the home of
Mrs. E. A. Russell, Wednesday after
noon. There was no business of
importance except to pay few
small bills and receive a few delin-
quent dues. The executive board
will begin at once to plan the work
for next year, and it is imperative
that all who intend to renew their
membership do so at once.
The study course of last year was
much enjoyed by those who followed
it, and the special entertainments
provided by the club at different
times were much enjoyed.
Many thanks are due the presi-
dent for her faithful efforts in behalf
of the club for the past two years,
and a unanimous vote of thanks
was given Mrs. Russell for the gen.
erous use of her home for the club
meetings the past year.
At the close of the meeting the
club adjourned to the Blue and Gray
Park where they were met by nearly
eighty little folks who enjoyed the
games and refreshments provided.
The "Children's Fete" closed the
program for the year. Much has
been accomplished in the way of
civic work, and the Rest Room"
which is now ready for use will be a
great convenience to those spending
a few hours in town who do not care
to 60 to a hotel.
The first Wednesday in October
the new officers will assume charge
of the meetings.
The following committees have
been selected by the President for
the year 1928. The committee
on compulsory education and for
estry have been combined and will
be called the Legislative Committee
Educational-Mrs. Hoover, Mrs
r. E. Lee and Mrs. G. P. Mingledorf
Legislative-Mrs Lon Dickey, Mrs
j. L. McCarty and Mrs. j. E. Mercer

Imperial Mother, from whose breasts
We drank as babes the pride whereby
We question ev'n thine own behests,
And Judge thee with no f1inching eyes-
Oft slow to hear when thou dost caA1s
Oft vext with divided will,
When once a rival seeks thy fall,
We are thy sons and daughters still.
The love that halts, the faith that veerss
Are then deep sunk as in the sea;
The sea where thou must brook no peers.
And halve with none thy sovereignty.

And Then You Shall Know.

What does it matter to you and to me
That the earth is fair and that life Is
free,
That things are just as they ought to be,
If we know it not?
What do we care that the rising sun
Illumines our blessings one by one,
Revealing the wonderful work to be done
If we see 1t not?
How can we know of the glory Of God.
OF His loving touch from the star to the
sod,
OF His gracious power which hghtens
the rod,
If we are asleep?
Ay children of ages and child of today
Awaken to truth; let it show you the way
To power, to health and to Gods love
Away,
And then you shall know.

The Discouraged Brother.

You say the world is old and cold. that
men seek riches blindly;
You say their only god is gold, that not
heart beats kindly;
You say that greed is everywhere, that
goodness is forsaken;
That hope is gone and honor dead,
That Virtue. scoffed at, hangs her head,
That all is wicked and unfair-but, broth
err you're mistaken.
You say the world grows worse and
worse, that clouds are forming Ger
us;
That on us God has put curse, that
terror lies before us;
You say that faith is shattered by the
sinners who pursue 1t;
You sit and sing a doleful song,
But repeat that you are wrong,
For have work to do and I possess the
strength to do 1t.

Sea Burial.

Sea Burial.
Lay him not in the earth with whom
earth
Has dealt so harshly; there no peace
found,
Where tree-roots blindly pushing in this
ground
Would clasp his coffin in their moving
girth;
Or where the soil, in labor at the birth
OF some fierce city, would modest the
mound
OF his low tenement, or muffied sound
OF tunneling mole trouble the dreamiess
dearth
OF sleep eternal. Rather lay him deep
In that low grave undigged OF any space
Where never sable mourner comes 10
weep
And tend with pious hand the flowers
that fade
The many-peopled grave down IN the
free
Untrodden cemeteries of the sea.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING.

A hornets nest usually contains
about $4,000 cells.
A diamond, when properly cut, will
have about 60 facets.
Sound travels through the air at the
rate of 10 miles minute.
There is spring in Nevada whose
waters taste like chicken soup.
It is estimated that the meteoric
dust falling upon the earth from outer
space amounts to 100 tons day.
The population Of Paris, within its
circle of Notifications, Is 2,S47, 900.
Suburbs and ALL it is 100000.
An immense asylum for the insane
has been built in Jerusalem by a
movement that started in Berlin.
Foggy days in London are not so
numerous as formerly. The change is
ascribed to the reduction of the
amount of smoke in the air and in
general to better sanitation.
An altar, duly consecrated by eccles-
iastics, has been installed upon an
automobile, the object being to pro-
mote mission work In the rural dis
tricts of England. It is portable
church.
While all other articles of diet cost
a great deal more in London now than
they did in 1900, yet rice and pota-
toes are a great deal cheaper than
they we're then.

Modest Ambition.

I do not care for wealth and fame,
Particularly fame,
I wouldn't give fig to have
A great and honored name.
I'm rich enough IL / but have
A luxury or two
And leisure time enough to do
The things I like to do.
Let others have the glory and
The Joys of swollen wealth;
TIM satisfied If but have
Enough, and time and health.
Others may tread ambitions path
II 1t delights them to;
I only want chance to do
The things like to do.

The wider the Bible is opened the
harder it strikes at sin.
God makes some men strong in or

The young man who has no fixed

Whether truth is handsome or not

You can find a dozen honest men to

You can generally tell how much
people love the lord by the company
they keep.
A rich man may give the lord too

too much.
Every man wrongs the world who
does not do what he can for the public
good while he is in it.
1t is not what we have, but what we

That far beneath me swings,
And bind the bleeding doves of peace
In triumph TO my wings.

Within the farmhouse prosy,
The caves hung low and cosy.
