MISS DORA SMITH PASSED AWAY
EASTER SUNDAY.

On Easter Sunday, April Sth, the
Death Angel visited the home of Mrs.
Laura Smith and took from her a
daughter, Miss Dora, who had been
sick for two years, yet through it all
she bore her pain without murmuring
until the last when the Death Angel
summoned her. She was, however,
willing and ready to go and patted
her twin sister on the cheeks and told
her it was all right and to come on.
Miss Smith was a member of the
Second Baptist Church of Rocheport
of which she was a faithful member
and also in the Sunday School and
was always willing to do whatever
was put upon her. She was a mem
Der of P~arthenia Tabernacle No. 4 of
Columbia, under whose auspices the
funeral services were held. She
leaves a mother, Mrs. Laura Smith;
two sisters, Mrs. Ora Black, a twin,
of Kansas City, Mo, and Miss Maymie
Smith of R%ocheport. Mo-; two broth
ers, Mr.. Leonard Smith of Columbia,
Mo-, and Mr.. Christal Smith of st.
Louis, Mo-, and, other relatives and a
host of friends The funeral was
preached by her pSstor, Rev. Ed Will
son and the floral designs were many
and beautiful.
Through all pain at times she'd smile,
A smile of heavenly birth,
And when the angels called her home
She smiled farewell to earth.
Heaven retaineth now our treasure,
Earth the lonely casket keeps,
And the sunbeams love to linger
Where our sainted sister sleeps.

RILYEu AT HOPEWELl

Filling his regular appointment at
Hopewell church, Rev. J. p. Bilyeu
preached last Saturday and Sunday,
his sermon Sunday morning being an
exceptionally good one. Although
the weather was very disagreeable,
4u....1 large crowd was out, and az
ter several beautiful and soultouching
songs by the class led by Mr.. L. B.
Thompson, Bro. Bilyeu delivered his
sermon on Soul Winning" his text:
HE that winneth souls is wise," from
Proverbs 11:30 He clearly demon
strated that only the truly converted
could lead others to Christ. as a per-
son cannot lead others unless he
knows whittier he is bound. He then
showed the joy Of soul-winning, and
the necessity of finding the unsaved.
and how to bring them to Christ. At
the conclusion Of the sermon nearly
everyone present agreed to try to lead
others to Christ during this year. A
church meeting was held before the
congregation was dismissed. some re-
ports were heard and one candidate
for church membership was present
and received. Bro Bilyeu breaches
at Hopewell every third Sunday and
Saturday before.

woMAN's MISSIONARY SOCIETY

On Monday afternoon the Womans'
Missionary Society of the Methodist
Church met with Mrs. Austin Smith
with splendid attendance of men,
bers and two visitors.
The lesson was a most interesting
one, subject: "The Kingdom Coming
Through Consecrated Money" Bible
lesson: How they gave for the Tab
ernacle," found in Exodus XXXV and
XXXVI. This lesson is the first
scripture account of great cccpera-
tive giving of material possessions for
the building of religious institution
and it clearly points to freewill
offering unto Jehovah. A very i'm
pressive lesson it is; right now es-
pecially, as we have been talking of
building, not a tabernacle, but a
much needed class or Sunday school
room And, too, this being the time
for US to consider what our anrua'
pledge shall be. Every one present
subscribed very generously to the
pledge, all of which goes with our
quarterly dues, exclusively to the
mission fields.
Everyone present manifested much
enthusiasm over the thought Of hay-
ing a Sunday school room. A COM
mittee was appointed to confer with
our pastor and others in regard to the
matter and estimate the cost of the
proposed building.
other committees were appointed,
after which most delightful social
hour was enjoyed by all, the hostess
serving delicious chocolate and cake.
The next meeting will be in Feb
ruary, with Mrs. Worth Bryant.

TEACHERS EXAMINATIONS

State Supt. Sheriff. has sent the
following notice to all county superin-
| tenlents:
| The next State examination for
teachers will be held in March 30th,
31st. The weather was so inclement
when the December examination was
held that but comparatively few took
it. In order to give the graders an
opportunity to care for the papers
of the next examination, which will
be very heavy, we have decided to
hold the next examination sooner
than was first planned. We desire
to have certificates from this exami-
nation in the hands of teachers in
time for them to teach Summer
terms of school.
AS this is the latest examination
until the middle of July, it will be
necessary to have all your teachers
who expect to begin teaching before
September 1st, take it..
No teacher can legally receive pay
for teaching who has no contract with
the board. No board can sign con-
tract with teacher who has no GER
tificate. The law fixes fine for the
violation of these regulations.
All applicants taking the examina-
ton to receive certificate must
take the entire examination. This
includes the Reading Circle. Hold
ers of five-year or permanent certif-
Gates, in lieu of the examination in
the Reading Circle, may attend
term at some accredited school. In
this work at least one course in edu-
cation must be accredtably done.
Please give this announcement
wide circulation in your county and
get all your teachers to qualify at
the next examination. 1t is very un-
satisfactory to wait until the
examination.

State Superintendent.

lone AND CLEMENTHA
BY Prof. S. 3. Yeargan

There is a Grecian story of lone
andClementha that has a beautiful
moral lone was sentenced to death
| for some political offense. His wife
was allowed to visit him in his last
| days Of imprisonment She talked to
him through the bars each day pre-
ceeding his death. On her last inter-
view she asked him If they would
ever meet again? lone said that
thought of a final separation had
borne heavily upon his mind. He
said, "Clemantha, have gone forth
at night when all the world was wrap
ped in slumber, and l have asked
this question of the eternal stars that
cleaned on high, among which my
spirit seemed to move divine, but
they had no answer for me. I have
stood upon the bank of the majestic
river, that rolled it's turbid waters
onward to the sea. l have propound-
ed that question there, but it had no
answer for me. / have stood or the
-, {; ~ ~. :, Ss..'i,--s.ss....y the
sea, while the storm-god was piling
the waves mountain high, while the
lurid lightning in swift coruscation5
lighted IT,, the storm tossed sea,
while deep peals of thunder shook
the world. l have again asked that
question, but they were dumb. But,
Clementha, when ! look into thy face
and see the love that mantles thy
cheeks and read the story of thy low
ing heart, the answer comes to me,
Clementha, that we shall meet
again."
The moral Is that nothing in all OF
the physical universe has any sympa-
thy for the human soul, and to find
these things we must find them in an
other human soul.
The human heart has Languages,
that only human hearts can read.
Hence the story of Prometheus and
the story of the human Christ solves
all soul problems

THE LITTLE WHITE CASKET

The little white casket went out Of
the house,
And the little white angel went back
to its God;
The soul like swift-winged bird
flying high,
The body so~tiny to rest meath the
sod,
Leaving an empty space in the dear
mother-heart,
A space that no earthly presence can
fill;
Though long be her life and joyous
one, too,
This one little spot will be empty
Her own soul shall wing it's way up
to God,
And life with its cares and it's pleas
ures are DER;
Then the little white angel will rest
on her breast,
And there'l be no sad. empty space
any more.
