They fit like shadows to and fro the longer

The year Is dying, but there Is another year
to come.

There are smiles and laughter SU0iting 0heTC

There's another year to come.
Another year is cOming-nOw it's haihng call
With golden smiles to pay for each jewel

With silOer store of moonlight, and with
Ivory of snOws,
With lifting laughter for the lips that long

F. Flint. While she had been in
poor health for several weeks her
case only took a serious turn on
Tuesday evening and she sank rap
idly until the end came in spite
of all that medical science could do.
The funeral will be held on Sat
urday morning at 10 o'clock. Her
sister, Mrs J. c. Mckinley. who lives
in Idaho, cannot arrive until then
The deceased was twenty-six years
of age and had lived nearly eight
years in Lamar, and was married
here to Mr.. Flint in 1906. She
was loving wife and mother, de-
voted to her home and family, and
one whose circle of friends was as
large as her mountaineering. The
home was an ideal one and the
memory of the loving kindness and
christian character of the wife and
mother will be solace even If IL
cannot assuage the grief of the
heartbroken husband and family.
She leaves besides her husband a
young son and other relatives to
mourn her loss. The heartfelt sym
patty of a host of friends goes out
to them in this time OF deepest
affliction.
