Prof. T. J. Coates. State supervisor
of rural schools. hit the nail squarely
on the head in a recent speech on rural
education before the teachers of Jeffer-
son county. What the farm does to
the farmer and not what the farmer
does to the farm is the main question
in educational agriculture, said Prof.
Coates. 1T is not what the farmers
wife does to the kitchen. but what the
kitchen does to the farmers wife. !"
Here is the lesson in nutshell for
those who believe they carry respon-
sibility for their fellowmen in present
and in future. No man knowing the
emptiness of many farm peoples lives
Of aught save the most exactIng druid

EMBRY

Mrs. Jennie Simpson Embry died at
the home of her son, Robert Embrv, this
Thursday morning at five o'clock.
Just with the awakening life of new
day she went to sleep like tired child.
1t was just as the birds carolled the
coming Of the morning and just as the
eastern sky was tinted with a sheen of
glory, the pure spirit took its flight
heavenward.
She ran the journey of her life in
sixty-five years, having been born near
Lancaster in 1850. in the house in which
she afterwards established home OF
her own and lived all of her married
life. In 1871 she married Samuel
Embry of Richmond. who died two
wears ago. Mrs. Embry was known to
every one as the highest type of Chris.
tian womanhood. The identifying in.
fiuence of pure religion spread over
her life and character. Her retiring
nature led her to hide her best qualities
from the public gaze, but they were re.
vealed to those who knew her. vet il
was in her home that her true worth
was most conspicuous. She had been a
kind and loving daughter, devoted
wife, fond mother, her devotion to
the family circle had no limit.
Her life was gentle, but like the
still waters. il was deep. a woman of
heroic mould in bravely meeting the
stern requirements and often the dis
appointments Of life. Ii is sad to give
up one whose influence was always for
good. who by precept and example at
all times spread abroad the blessed
influence of godly living. but because
life and love are stronger than death
she is still ours. She is still the mother
of the devoted boys. whom she loved
with such clinging fondness. still the
fond grandmother. and may she not by
this very transition weld over them q
stronger force for goodness and truth
than ever before.
For the Sabbaths Of earth she now
enjoys the Sabbsths Of heaven. She
now awaits and watches at the heaven
ly gate for the coming of her loved ones.
She leaves to mourn her loss two
sons. Messrs Robert 7. and Will s.
Embry and four grand children. Bert.
William. Samuel and Ruth Embry.

Vote FOR tom BALLARD.
T.. CT II
For Sheriff

To the voters of Garrard County,
1t is generally known that the late
Curt A. Robinson was elected sheriff
of Garrard county by one of the largest
majorities ever given any man. and
that George T. Ballard Jr., was his
chief deputy, George 7. Ballard Sr. A..
his father. being partner with Mr..
Robinson in the emoluments or fees of
the office. If Mr.. Ballard is elected
for the two years. yet remaining Of the
term, he Is pledged. and justly so, to
give the widow of Mr.. Robinson half
the profits or fees of the Office, which
as certainly belong to her as any pro-
perty he left her. The truth is. an Of
fee is most sacred property right. be-
ing bestowed by the people, the high
est authority. and it would be the gros-
sest injustice to deprive the holders Of
such property Of their rights. 1t is
not believed that the voters Of Garrsrd
county will overlook the principles of
justice and equity in this race. II the
Office belonged to Robinson and Ballard
before Mr.. Robinson's death. the re-
msinder of the term belongs to Ballard
and Mr.. Robinson's widow.
If the voters will calmly consider
this. as matter Of right and justice.
they will not recall or revoke what they
have done. and Tom Ballard will be
elected by an overwhelming majority.
