Buffalo Valley r I

The death angel visited our commu-
nifty Friday, Aug. 16, 1912 and laid its
icy hand on the brow of one of our
dearest old women, Mrs. Eliza Cowen,
age 81 years. Mrs. Cowen was loved
by all who knew her. We will miss
her greatly but she now resides in q
better home than ours. She left sew
eral children and grandchildren to
mourn her loss, loss to them on earth
but happy gain to her in Heaven.
God who knows best, took her to her
bright Heaven home where no sorrows
ever come. We all hope and pray that
we may live as Mrs. Cowen lived and
when the roll is called up yonder, we'll
all be there.
A precious one from us has flown.
A voice we love is still;
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
God in his wisdom has recalled the
boon his loye had given, and though
the body slumbers here the soul is safe
in Heaven. A friend.

Tree PLANTING
AND SCHOOL

Arbor Day November 8, was
duly observed bv the schools in the
community with appropria e
exercises and the planting of trees
in the school yards. Enthusiasm
and industry in this latter respect
were however somewhat checked
by the very restricted ire in
which to plant. The Garden Is
land dotes on trees and on the
manifest advantages which they
suggest but it doubts the ex
pediencv of planting them in the
confined school grounds of Lihue.
Every year we have a fresh crop
of school buildings which swarm
over the grounds until there are
only little scraps of margin left
where a child can hardly turn a
somersault much less stretch his
legs. Accordingly the Garden Is
land views the farther reduction of
