If a man had but two sources to
obtain living, namely, to steal or
to sell whisky, which would he
choose? In the first, he would
give nothing in return for his
gains, but in the second he would
give that which is worse than
nothing. Then we would conclude
that, rather than keep saloon and
sell poison to the INDECENT and the
fallen, he would better run a swim
ding den, pure and simple, and
take the money from the lost ones
and give them nothing in return.
Hence, the saloon keeper is much
the greater curse than the thief.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 10, 1912
Vessie Heber Barker Dead.

Vessie Heber Barker, born June
70, 1900, died January Is, 1912
Vessie was out hunting with his
uncle, DR.. r. l.. Barker, during
the Christmas holidays. They
were in pursuit of rabbit, when
the doctor fred, not noticing the
whereabouts Of the boy, the con-
tents of the gun taking effect in
the hip. 1t was thought at the
time and until last Monday that it
was flesh wound, and that it was
only matter Of time until Vessie
would be all right. Alas, this was
not the case; the hopes of his loved
ones were only built to be torn
down.
Late Monday afternoon his con-
dition became alarming, and the
attending physician called for med
ical assistance, but medical skill
was powerless, and gradually he
grew worse until the 18th instant,
when the end came. He endured
pain and agony with courage and
patience unexcelled and seldom
equaled by man, and near the last,
no doubt, when it was evident to
him that the end was near, he told
his mother that if he died the Lord
would take care of him.
Vessie was a bright boy, loved
by everyone. He wassuch sweet
spirited boy, and SO lovable to all,
that it seemed as if he gladdened
the lives of all with whom he came
in contact. 1t seems so strange to
think of such an untimely end of
SO noble character, but no doubt
the Master had use for him and
has taken him to live with Him.
Farewell, Vessie; you will be
missed by friends and loved ones
here; you will be missed in your
home and Sunday school, but we
feel that our loss is your eternal
gain, and while you can not come
back to us, We can 60 to you.
Funeral services we're conducted
by the writer at Cowell's Chapel
Sunday at 8 o'clock, We extend
sympathy to relatives and friends.
