abandon their Antwerp home, where
all the young St. Glars were born.
Elsie, aged IS, the pianist Of the

cellist, together with the mother and
little brother, succeeded in reaching
England. and there they are, with
the ocean separating them from the

burying their share Of the family's

4 Pleasant Home Coming.

Rev. Thaddeus Bowman Epting,
now missionary in Mississippi, to-
gether with his wife, is visiting the
home OF his parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
L. l. Epting in Nance street. Being
so far away the home comings are
rather far apart, but the more pleasant
for the eager anticipations OF being
"at home again.
Sunday was kind Of reunion day
for all the family, all save one mem
Der being present. They all came
to share Sunday dinner together and
to spend a few hours together with
their families and the grand chill
dren.'
1t was a rather busy day for the
young pastor, who attended service al
St. Paurs in the morning, addressed
the College Y. NJ. c. A. in the after

of the Church of the Redeemer at
night.

vailing there. He says that the weeVil

cotton in the larger part of Missls-

sons who had 10 acres of cotton this
year, who normally made eight o.
ten bales are gathering about loU

ton outgrows the weeyiIs ability 10

to sections of Louisiana, Texas ana
Oklahoma. His advice to our farmers
is to begin to raise home produce anu
other crops, grain and hay, and also
cattle and to encourage the coopefa-
tive creameries. Mississippi is grad
