Obituary

Edith Cox was born March 13
1871, near Linneus, Linn county
Missouri. She grew to woman
hood near Little Compton, Carroll
county, and died May 13, 1915.
She was married to o. l. Fay
March 20, 1893, and came to and
resided at Forker, Mo-, for 16
years. Then she and her husband
and little family moved to Kansas
where they, lived two years after
which time they returned to this
county and located on farm one
mile east of Forker and resided
there up to the time of her death.
In January, 1914, she was stricken
ed with tuberculosis and while she
suffered intensively for 16 months
she bore her aff1iction patiently and
cheerfully, always seeing the
bright side if at all possible.
She leaves to mourn, her hus-
band, one grown son, two daugh-
ters, 13 and 9 years of age, an
aged father, two sisters, two
brothers and several nieces and
nephews, and a large circle of
friends and neighbors.
Mrs. Fay was a good wife and
mother, friend and neighbor. AL
ways willing and ready to help
when help was needed.
The funeral was preached at the
home May II by Rev. Trotter, the
remains being laid to rest in the
Laclede cemetery. May the Lord
bless the bereaved family.
I'VE loved her. yes we loved her.
But the angels loved her more
And they have called her
To yonder shining shore.
And the golden gates were opened.
And gentle voice said come"
And with farewellS unspOken,
She calmly entered home"
A FRIEND.

MIR. Page Not an Applicant

Superintendent J. Frank Page
who completes his two years work
at the head of the LacIede schools
today is not an applicant for re-
election. He expects to spend a
year or more in the Chicago uni
versity and receive the A. B. de-
gree from that institution. Mr..
Page has been a tireless worker for
the advancement of the school and
under his supervision it has been
placed on the fully accredited list
with II approved units, and in
severing his connection he ex-
presses the hope that the same
cordial support and cooperation
the school has received from the
patrons and board the past two
years may be continued that further
advancement may be made. In
this connection THE BLADE believes
his services are fully appreciated
and he has the best wishes of all
our people.

The lack of moisture that has
prevailed here for the past two
months causing near drought has
been relieved. 1t began raining
shortly after noon Tuesday and
continued almost necessarily until
Wednesday night, during which
time it is estimated the precipita-
tion was little more than three
inches. The rain was much needed
and it fell slowly and steadily, so
that most of it soaked into the
ground and will do much good.
Wheat, corn, gardens and pastures
were suffering and will be greatly
benefited, and it is thought the
berry crops will be saved. The
rain will also put a check on the
chinch bugs that were already
damaging the wheat, oats. and
corn. The temperature has been
low for this time of year but the
are there will be no
damaging frost in this locality.
