MEMORIAL SERVICE
TO SOPHIE WRIGHT

/ !, A beautiful memorial service was
iIsl.ssld at the Presbyterian church We'd
nesday. June 10, the second anniver-
sary of Miss Sophie B. Wright's
death. Lovely white daisies and
ferns and palms decorated the pulpit
and rails. Rev. E. A. Rennie, of the
Episcopal church opened the service
| with the singing of the Doxology, fol
lowing with prayer by Rev. F. G.
Talmage, who also gave the scripture
reading and a memorial prayer. Miss
Alma Frederick sang solo and the
choir sang several appropriate Sc
lectiOns.
| Rev. Talmage delivered the SER
mon, taking for his text: Heb. 11;4.
He being dead, yet speaketh.' =
The beauty of the flower as we
watch it grow and unfold and give
forth its fragrance, lasts but few
days and then dies; but artists have,
with their brushes and colors, put
the image of that flower on canvass
and memories of the beauty of that
flower, while it lived, remains to be
seen by the eye and is appreciated.

as it unfolds and grows in wisdom
and love of God, and it leaves its
impress on other lives and so char
acterizes the kingdom Of God in the
world.
Names have been inscribed in its
chronicles, monuments erected In
memory of its subjects, heroes of
faith, and banners wave, where once
was sin.
Such is the array of heroes and
victories in this chapter, Abel. Enoch,
Noah, Moses, etc. We may be added.
Who knows but that one amongst
you it may be our joy to list with
the name Of Miss Sophie Wright, in
whose memory we have met to-day,
and whom we delineate with the de-
scription of Abel, "she being dead,
yet sDeaketh.
A more excellent sacrifice, fuller
sacrifice, can be made by each one
of us, by a truer appreciation OF the
divine love, deeper gratitude for
His goodness. A higher devotion to
service and deeper realization that
all of the past help and His great
present mercies deserves, in some lit
tie measure, to be repaid.
Tradition tells us Of the Moham-
medan faith and the fire from heaven.
No supernatural thing is necessary.
Gods testimony is through our lives.
The bitter spring does not send forth
bitter and sweet water, neither do
figs grow on thOrns nor grapes on
thistles. Just SO with our lives, they
bear testimony. The sacrifice bore
gods testimony. The blood OF Abel
split, and life was gone, but the con-
tinuing voice was heard by Jesus,
Paul and John, and the writer of
this chapter heard the voice of that
sacrifice.
Deeds testify to the person the
person speaks out of the fullness OF
life.
And so the voice of Abel was felt
by ten thousand of faithful follow
ere.
The more excellent sacrifice was
Miss Sophie Wright's. She felt deep.
ly the divine companiOnship. She
had clear knowledge OF Chrlst,s
love. She yielded her whole life to
others. Can we fail to hear the
heavenly testimony, the work she did
SO like the Master.
sShe being dead, yet speaketh.
The service closed with prayer by
Rev. E. Rennie.

Mason City, Nov. 11.-A baby boy, 10
months old was burned to death late
yesterday afternoon when fire, sup
posed to have been started either by
older brothers playing, or by tramps,
destroyed the barn on a farm occu-
pied by Henry Shimps. The frightened
older children say tramps set fire
and threw the baby in but as no men
had been seen around the premises, the
story is doubted and the authorities
think the children in some way kindled
the fire and, becoming frightened, ran
away. Coroner w. e. Long is inves-

After investigating the situation, de-

The tree stands in front of the house
so that 1t branches offer much protec-
