In Menoriurn

Lillian Campbell Moss entered
into rest OH March 18th at the
We million Sanitarium.
The river of another life has
reached the sea. a life of love is
now blessed memory, lingering
strain of sweetest music The
devoted daughter, the faithful and
loyal wife, the pure and consecret
ed mother, the loving sister, the
sincere friend, who with tender
faithfulness discharged all the
duties of life, has reached her jour
ney's end. A Drawer, a more
serene, a more cheerful spirit
never passed from life to death.
No field of battle ever witnessed
greater fortitude, more perfect
courage, than this dear, suffering
woman displayed upon the bed of
pain and death. Fully conscious
to the end, and ever greeting her
dear loved ones with loving smiles
and tender words, cheerful and so
accomplishing that it was hard to
realize that her brave spirit was
soon to take its flight into the
Great Beyond. There remains
this consolation: She can never
again feel the chill of death, never
again bear the pang of separation
from loved ones. Her tender,
loving heart can never feel another
pang. She has shed her last tear
and upon her stainless brow has
been set the wondrous seal of ever
lasting peace. When the Angel
of Death enter the houseothere
come with her all the daughters of
compassion, and these, Love and
Hope, remain forever.
She added to the sun of human
JOY and was never too busy or too
i'll to neglect the small, sweet
courtesies of life. Were everyone
for whom she did some loving
service to lay a blossom on her
grave, she would sleep today be-
meath a wilderness of flowers. The
record of her generous life runs
like vine around the memory of
our dead and every sweet, unset
fish act is now a perfumed flower.
Those who stood with breaking
hearts around her grave need feel
no fear. We know that she has
passed into the blessed Heaven of
Eternal Rest. We know too that
through the common wants OF life
the daily needs and duties of each
passing hour, their grief will soften
day by day, until at last this dear
grave will be to them a place OF

FORMAL ACTION
NOT YET TAKEN
BY ST. JOHNS

Formal action on the call extended
the Rev. A. J. Feeger of ST. John s
Lutheran church will be taken at a
meeting OF the congregation In two
weeks. A determined effort is being
made to hold the pastor here, and the
prediction was made today by mem
bers of the vestry and the church that
the congregation would not permit: him
TO accept the call.
The Rev. Mr.. Feeger yesterday in.
formed the congregation that the mat
ter Of his accepting the call would be
settled definitely at the congregational
meeting in two weeks. He said that
he had not informed the congregation
at Dayton of his decision as to the
call, and would not until after the con
gregational meeting here.
Members of the congregation pre-.
dicted today that an almost unanimous
vote would be cast at the meeting
against the acceptance of the call by
the Rev. Mr. Feeger. ..

country ever has known, Mr.. Lontz

prices are higher now than they
ever have been. No doubt there will
be a recession of prices some time.

PILOT NOT INVOLVED
IN DEALERS CLAIM

The Pilot Motor Car company is
not involved in the action Of Raymond
A. Smith, GAINESVILLE dealer, to re-
cover $500 put up by Smith in accept
ing a sub-contract from the United
Motor Car and Tire company, an Ohio
concern, to handle Pilot cars.
After Smith accepted a contract
with the United Motor Car and Tire
company, which was the distributor
of the Pilot cars in his territory, the
Pilot company terminated its con-
tract with the United Motor Car and
Tire company, it Is stated. Smith
then sought to recover the $500 he
had posted with the distributing COM
pany but payment was refused, it is
alleged.
The United Motor Car and Tire
company, it is alleged, had $125
guarantee posted with the Pilot COM
pany, and at the Pilot company's sug-
gestion Smith brought proceedings to
attach this sum.

CROWD HEARS
WOMEN TALK
AT ECONOMY

Woman's natural part in the house
keeping side of government was the
basis of the speech made by Mrs. w.
o. Lewis at the Suffrage meeting held
in Economy, Saturday night.
The meeting was one Of the most
successful which has been held this
fall. About $50 people, men and
women, attended.
1T is natural" said Mrs. Lewis.
that woman should look after the part
of government which has to do with
children. She is best suited to look
after sanitary conditions and to gov
ern the schools. Woman has been
mistreated inasmuch as these natural
rights have been withheld from her.
Women Held Back.
"By reason that she is not given the
right to vote, woman is placed on the
same plane with criminals and minors.
This is unfair.
Negroes were given the rights Of
franchise, but still woman was held
back. Immigrants after they have
been in this country for one year and
have merely signified their intentions

par with the best educated men is de-
clined the right to help govern the af-
fairs Of government in which she is

In answering the common plea that
woman's place is in the home, Mrs.
Lewis said:

les have enlarged as the work in her

FEAR OF POLIO
PREVENTS SHOW
OF Prize BABES

Because of the infantile paralysis
plague which has swept over the
country. the committee on the Rich
mond Perfect Baby contest has de-
cided to hold no large public demon
stration when the prizes are awarded
as had first been planned.
Although there are no cases OF the
disease in Richmond. it was decided
that all precautions should be taken.
During the examinations which were
conducted at the Social Service
bureau rooms last week all precau-
tons against the spread Of diseases
were taken Only few babies were
present at any time and no baby came
in contact with anything that any
other baby had touched.
Committee Starts Work.
A committee of three this afternoon
started averaging the score cards. Be-
cause of the many children whose
scores are almost the same, it is ex-
pected that it will be necessary to
make many denominations. These
will be conducted with the same pre-
cautions that were used in the first
examinations.
The committee hopes to be able to
announce the winners by the end OF
this week. Orders will be given by
the committee to the winners upon
merchants who have offered prizes.
The mothers will present the orders
to the merchants and receive the mer-
chandise.
During the entire contest, only six
babies out of the total 173 registered
failed to show up for examination.
Three babies who had not been reg.
istered were examined. This makes
a total of 10 score cards from which
the winners must be picked. The two
pairs of twins which were examined
are sure to win prizes. The committee
agrees that it will be difficult prop
osition to Judge which pair is the
most perfect as all four Of the babies
are we'll developed.
