Pull and Push.

A little pull in frort and little push
behind make it easy for the pastor to
go. The church over the way lifts
reckoning hand and the church he is
trying to lead lifts a kicking foot.
Between the two he recognizes the call
of the Lord to move, and on ne goes.
In due time the reckoning hand is
transformed into the kicker's boot, and
the weary process is repeated We
have become so accustomed to this mo-
dus operandi in our ecclesiastical ma
chinery that we accept it as part of
the divine plan end fail to see the dia-
bolicalness of it. The church changes

Last Sunday afternoon Mr..
Sam Browning, of this place
was married to Miss Kate Antle,
daughter of Mr.. Sam Antle, who
lives near Montpelier. We un-
derstand that the ceremony was
performed in the pre- sence of z
few special friends by Rev.
Charles Deener.
Soon after the rites were sol.
emnized the couple left for Co.
lumbia, arriving here in time to
take supper at the Hancock Ho-
tel.
The groom had already provid-
ed a home and in a few days the
couple will be housekeeping in
the Tut addition.
Mr.. Browning is an industrious
young man.and has many friends
in Columbia, all of whom desire to
extend their best wishes through
the News.
The bride was a popular young
lady in the neighborhood where
she resided, and will be greatly
missed by a large circle of
friends.

Complete Settlement.

Mr.. L. C. Winfrey, who is the
receiver of the late Citizens
Bank, this place, has made a
complete settlement with all the
depositors, paying them dollar
for dollar, and all other indebt-
edness of the bank. He has
yet about 15,0OO.:.or $4,000 in
notes and overdrafts in his hands
which he will collect and pay
over to the stock jsholders. This
certainly speaks we'll for Mr..
Winfrey as a business man, and
it is also a credit to the officers
of the bank. When an institu-
ton fails and every dollar is paid
to creditors, it is certainly an ev-
idence of no wrong intention.
This full settlement was made
in eight months to the day.

panion.

The June Woman's Home Com.
paaion contains an article, 1.-THE
Vanishing Husband" by Mary
Heaton worse, which presents an
extraordinarily clear explanation
of why it is that men like to get
away from women and enjoy
each others society. The main
contention in the article is that
men can get along without their
women folks but women cannot
get along without the men. 1t
is an article full of able and at
times humorous observations.
The June Companion also con-
tains a sketch of Princess Pat'
of Connaught; an account of the
recent dramatization of Little
Women; a description of what
has been done in New Xork City
toward reducing the death rate
of small children; and a report
of the progress made in this
country toward the accomplish
ment of a sane Fourth of July.
Fiction of power, humor and
reality is contributed by Owen
Oliver, Kathleen Norris, Virginia
Tracy, James Oppenheim and
Laura Spencer Porter. Most of
the stories are love stories be-
cause the June number of the
Companion is called "the love
story number. )"
In the household, fashion,
home decoration and handicraft
departments appear many ar
ticles of interest and practical
use, among which are articles on

: Decoration Day.

The thirtieth day of May,
which is national decoration day
was observed at several places in
Adair county, notably Mt. Car.
mel, Bear Wallow and Columbi a.
At the two former places are the
graves of a number of departed
soldiers, and many survivors
were present to do honor to
those who were their comrades
in time of war. Patrio tic
speeches were made and the
floral offerings were many.
Here in Columbia the cemetery
swarmed with ladies and gentle
men all the afternoon, and after
all the graves had been decorated
the odor in the city of the dead
equaled that coming from a ver-
liable flower garden.
After all the graves had been
decorated, the large assembly
came together and there were
singing, a prayer and a memorial
address. The songs were select
ed to fit the occasion, and were
rendered by a choir, led by Mrs.
W. M. Wilson, accompanied by
cornet, played by Mr.. Geo. w.
Lowe. The prayer by Judge H..
C. Baker was clothed in most ap-
propriate language.
Following the invocation, Mrs.
J. O. Russell read a poem by
Rev. T. L. Hulse, which was
written on the anniversary of the
death of his daughter, Ina,
which occurred in this place a
little over one year ago. The
poem follows this Introductory:
The next in order was the me-
mortal address by Rev. j. w.
Weldon, who praised, in most
beautiful language, the manifest
ed love of the living for departed
loved ones, and pointing the liv-
ing the way to heaven. After
the address, which was beautiful
in words, delivered pathetically,
a song was rendered and the as
sembly dismissed.
Judge Junius Hancock was
master of ceremonies.

IN MEMORY OF INA.
May "a, 1912.

The circling spheres have swept again
Around their annual way;
And quickened memory wakes to dwell
with sadness on this day.
Twas then the Saviour called her
hence
Whom once his love had given,
And robed in white, she joined the
choir
And found her home, in heaven.
With grief filled hearts and spirits
bowed
We journey through the years,
And offer on this days return
Our Sacrament of tears.
The days that come bring change and
death
To empires in their course;
But love for her burns on within
With undiminished force.
How powerless death to quench the
flame
That glows within the breast,
For those who pass within the vail
To find eternal rest.
To death the flaming worlds shall yield
Their glories all sublime;
And universal wreck attend
The funeral dirge of time.
But God hath made US with love
That laughs at all decay
And holds the dear one in its arms
IT'LL that eternal day.
HALL happy one. Thrice happy. hail
Amid supernal joy,
Translated now to fields of light
You find your glad employ
What glories bright now fill your view
What fellowship divine!
What fields of deepening knowledge
now
Before your vision shine!
Not vainly did you seek to delve
To wisdom S secret spring;
For now, with deeper, richer life
Your upward way you wing.
Rewards, for years Of patient toll
For knowledge eager sought
D Are yours, in quickeffed powers tc
grasp
The larger lessons taught.
Our chasened hearts look up through
tears
And greet you in your home, -.
And wait till we shall also hear
Our Sayiour's welcome COME"

one.
On last Thursday l visited the
boy at his home in order to get
a history of the case, see the
sanitary surroundings and have
an account of it published in your
valuable paper.
| found the little boy out in
the field where the hands were
at work. His name is Floyd C..
West. He is pale and sickly
looking and don't seem to be
mentally sound. He has had the
disease for three years. Like
all cases of pellagra it breaks out
in the spring and subsidies in the
fall, each year worse than the
last. His case now resembles
bad cases of sunburn. He has
it on both hands, both arms, both
feet and both legs and a collar
about 2 inches wide running all
around his neck and has it very
slightly on his face, his feet are
very tender but his hands are
not.
His mind is very weak and
about six weeks ago he began
having slight epiliptic spasms.
This eruption shows nowhere I'M
der the clothes.
The boy sometimes attends
schools but never learns we'll.
The sanitary surroundings of
his home are reasonably good.
The house stands on a hill about
200 yards from Barnetts Creek
and is dry and well drained. The
boy is very nervous and sleeps
badly at night. could get no
clew as to how and where he
contracted the disease. His
grand father for two or three
years, has been housed up and
refuses to talk to any body, and
some of his neighbors say that
he has had an eruption some
thing like the boy but l talked
to two of his sons, and they told
me that that was a mistake. The
boy has had but little medical
treatment and what he has had
seems to have done him no good.
l was often asked the question,
Is it catching? l answered af-
ter fashion, it certainly is.
In a bulletin issued by the
State Board of Health the ques.
ton is discussed. A case is cit
ed of a child brought to the Bap-
fist orphanage at Nashville,
Tenn, in 1909. 1t was brought
from a distance suffering from
Pellagra, and in a comparatively
short time there were IA cases
in the institution. All the cases
in the city were confined to that
institution. There are several
cases reported in the Bulletin
where women who washed the
clothes of Pellagriess have been
seized with the disease.
The house fly, gnat, mosquito,
or a certain species of black wa.
ter fly found only along small
water courses may be the cause
of its spread and great deal Of
investigation is going on along
these lines.
Until more is found about its
contagioness would advise the
people to stay away from it
