GERMAN ATROCITIES

Of course you have heard of
the German atrocities, and no
doubt, like most other people,
found them unbelievable until
convinced by Germany herself
that it was quite possible. I've
enough frst-hand stories to make
me believe anything of Germany
today.
One thing has especially i'm
pressed me-praclically all the
Belgians that I have talked with
express sympathy for the Ger
man soldiers. There seems to be
little bitterness against them,
but the German officers come in
for most violent hatred. Over
and over they have told me of
the soldiers telling them they did
not wish to fight the Belgians,
and also of how the soldiers were
told they were in France when

IN MEMORY OF MISS ADA BURTON

Miss Ada Burton. daughter of
T. G. and Francis Burton, of
Forsyth county. and who pre-
ceded her to the better land sew
eral years ago, was born August
8. 1872, and departed this life
December 5, 1915, aged 43 year,,
three months and twenty-siX
days She professed religion
and joined the Baptist church at
SheltonviIle and was baptized by
Rev. J. Frank Jackson. She
moved her membership to Sc
vile where she went to live with
her sister, Mrs. W. w. Wilson,
about two years ago, She re-
NAMED a worthy and consistent
member until her death, which
came suddenly and called her to
her reward. Her death did not
come as surprise to her friends
and loved ones. for she had been
for quite while in bad health.
1t was the pleasure of the writer
of this sketch to be familiarly
acquainted with this sister. She
possessed a most afable dispo-
sition, and was a greas lover of
children; and in return all the
children who knew her loved her
fondly. 1t seemed to be the
greatest joy of her life to make
others happy, thus bringing joy
and sunshine into the hearts of
others. Dear Ada has fought
the last battle. and like a peace.
full sunset her life ended. and on
the evening Of the 9Th we laid
her body tenderly to rest in the
Sugar Hill cemetery, near the
resting place of her dear mother
and father to await the sum-
mons from the master who shall
call up the sleeping dust to enter
a life of eternal Immortality.
Servant OF christ, we'll done
Rest from thy blessed employ;
The battle fought, the victory won.
Enter the Masters Joy.
| will say to the bereaved ones,
trust you will not sorrow as
those who have no hope, for we
expect to see her again where
she shall be clad in garments of
Immortality.

of the New Year, and dem

them, had been passing to and

all night long, it seemed, attend
ing watch parties and the such,
which Pete characterized in the
plain language of "carousing
aroun." He had spent a some
what restless night, and arose
early. Cracking his door, he
peeped out into the early dawn.
The stars were still shining.

called his wife, "an' look up at

appeared about this time, and

Mandy.
