SOUTH LONDONDERRY
Susan A. Temple Thompson

The many friends of Mrs Gilman
u. Thompson were saddened to learn
of her death which occurred March 20,
1916, at her home after an illness of
Eve weeks with meningitis borne with
her usual patience. Mrs. Susan Adele
Temple Thompson was born in South
Londonderry June q, 1910, and lived
in this town and Winhall all her life.
She was married August Ia, 1859, and
is survived by her husband Gilman j.
Thompson and her daughter, Miss
Halle A. Thompson Of New York. 1t
is not strange those who knew her best
appreciated her 50 highly. Her life,
which was spared to near four score
years, though she seemed hardly 60,
was filed with deeds Of love and help
fulness to others, for she had improv-
ed them well. These words Of Scripture
may well be applied to her: "She hath
done what she could" The sweet
presence and kindly smile which mark
ed her will hold a large place in the
hearts Of those who knew her. These
words found among her papers ex-
press a thought which doubtless voiced
her feelings and desire;
"There is no sweeter tale to tell,
There is no sweeter song TO sing
~
Than one which praises long and wen
The gladness of remembering"
Services were held at the home Fri
day, March 81, and the body was taken
to the tomb and placed in a steel vault
Saturday morning. Rev. w. G. Good
win officiated. Mrs. +. Melendy, Mrs.
Frank Tyler and J. b. johnson sang
two selections. A profusion Of choice
flowers from relatives and friends far
and near and from 6. A. X, W. X. c.
and S. S. gave testimony Of their love.

serve useful purpose TO cover couch
pillows. Many persons think that vel.
vet for house decorative purposes Is

half worn, and instead of paying large
prices for antique pieces Of the fab

velvet which has been made "old" by
the articles Of commerce the house
wife with an eye 10 artistry in house
decoration may use up her old velvet
frocks to advantage.
For couch pillows, small table covers,
desk pads, table mats or TO 90 under
lamps or portfolio covers the old velvet
is perfectly satisfactory. Even when
only comparatively small pieces are
good enough to use they may be sewed
together I'm strips and the seams cover
ed with narrow gold braid or tiny
bands Of satin. While the dark color
ed velvets, wine. dark blue, dark green,
dark violet. etc. are usually considered
more attractive for house fittings.
black velvet is ut the moment quite as
desirable The present passion for the
accentuation OF the black note in house
furnishing makes the black velvet
couch cushions and table mat entirely
suitable.
Naturally the black material cannot
be used in very large pieces without
creating too somber effect, but when
made up with gold braid and fringed
or strapped with bands Of brocaded
silk II makes extremely attractive
looking covers. Another way OF using
the velvet to create rich effects in pill
low coverings or for the other purposes
mentioned is to make it the back
ground of the cover, against which
are appliqued small bright colored de
signs cut from brOcade or figured satin
or velvet.
Foot rest pillows may also be made
of velvet, They generally have an OBJ
long of tapestry, a third smaller in
the center, and their length CORE

which they are placed. one would

charming ones are made where the
seams cross the face Of the pillow,
