and to all who knew her. Her life on
earth, so full of happy thoughts and
pleasant words, created an atmosphere
of joy for her friends.
She has crossed into the Great Be.
yond where perpetual smiles, wreathe
the lips of the ransomed.
To her friends as to her family cir.
Gle she showed pure and unselfish
devotion and interest.
Their fond hearts are now heavy
with mourning, tears fall as we look
upon her still in death-and the part.
ing of the ways are shrouded in the
mists of lamenting.
Loving hands touched her tenderly
noiseless footsteps moved about her
and whispering voices echoed the re.
frain OF a grief too deep for words.
Is there no balm in Gilead?
We picture death as coming to de.
stroy, can we not picture Christ as
coming to save?
We think of death as ending-shal]
we not think of the true life beginning?
We think of losing,-why not of gain.
ing? We think of parting-why not OF
meeting? We think of going away-let
us think of arriving. And as the voice
of death whispered to ALA (you must
go from earth). She heard the voice of
the Saviour saying, you are coming
to me. His divine grace bore her
across the dark chasm-intO His peace
and bliss of Paradise-where there is
no night
She leaves with us fond remem.
brance to which we can revert with
admiration.
She will be sadly missed by all who
knew her and enjoyed her pure, sweet
smile, and cheerful companionship.
Dear friend-we loved thee-mourn
thee-miss thee, and reluctantly watt
thee sad farewell.
This was followed by the following
by Mrs. ]. B. Johnson, also of the
Scientific Art Club:
st. Paul, Mimi, April 10, 1915. =
Just as the evening shades are
falling, Angels bore the pure spirit OF
ALA homeward from earth to heaven
The center of her home, so full OF
hope, we wonder why life should
close so soon. We know not now: we
shall know hereafter.
In the death of Mrs. A. Thompson
the Scientific Art Club has lost a
most noble, strong, upright, and in
fiuential member.
She was always interested to the ex
tent OF trying to arouse the less in
terested faction by words of encour
agement and exercised great mental
efforts to induce her co-workers tc
participate.
When we speak of noble character
it is to say very little towards the
amiable life as there are few women
of such sterling qualities.
She was sweet, gentle, and most
lovable woman to all who knew he1
as we.
Always congenial and ever ready
to link her ideas and efforts with 9th
ers she thought good.
Hence: We feel her loss greatly
and know her life to be one worthy OF
emulation.
Resolved: In the sunlight of Gods
future, we shall know the meaning OF
the mysteries. of this life, and the me
mory of ALA, will make us truer
purer, and gentler.
To the 'bereaved husband and family
we extend our hearty sympathy and
/ offer as solace
Tis God who has bereft you. He
alone knows best, And can all your
SORROWS heal.
Resolved: Though He cause grief
yet will he have compassion, accord
ing to the multitude of his mercies
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled,
A place is vacant in our midst,
Which never can be filed.
