The entire city was saddened On
Monday morning at the intelligence
Of the death Of Mrs. VIM. q. Elkih,
which occurred at her home, on Me

night.
Mrs. Elkin was a member Of one
of the most. prominent and induen-
tial families of the State. and ex-
emplified in her life those qualities
and characteristics that distinguish
ed her ancestors.
None ever entered her home with.

out feeling the influence of her gen.

for the good of humanity found ex.
preston in her generous charities.
transformations in these dispense
tons, her right hand knew not what
her left hand dispensed for the re-
lief of suffering humanity. Many a
sorrowing heart has been lifted up
and made glad through the benevo-
lence of this good woman.
She was a devout member OF the
Methodist church, observing its Or
dinances and supporting its institu-
tions. In this sphere, the value OF
her life was exemplified in the show
ing of her faith in her good works,
The deceased was the mother of
Mrs. John Gilmore and Mrs. Julian
Evans, both of this city, who with
their children and relatives, have
the deepest sympathy of a wide cir
Gle of friends and acquaintance.
None but those who have sat in the
shadow of a great bereavement can
Justly weigh such sorrows as come
to children and grandchildren in
the loss of a Christian mother and
grandmother.
Impressive funeral services were
held at the home at 4 O'Clock Mon

E. Cunningham, assisted by Revs.

which all that was. mortal of this
good woman was laid to rest in the

dear lady, George Washington and
wife. were truly reproduced by Mr..
Herman Egger and Miss Mabel!Cros-
by. The entertainment was espe-
cially given in honor of Washing

were both beautiful and appropriate.
there were four very striking tableaux
of George Washington. The first
was the cradle artistically decorated
in the national colors; next his boy

Irwin, barefooted and dressed in a
costume becoming the occasion,
swinging his Ratchet over the already
fallen cherry tree. And next Wash

Egger certainly looked stately and
commanding. And last, though not
least, Washington's Inauguration.
The scene was beautiful and impress

position the chorus girls filed in the
rear and sang the grand old song,

Then came the primary class with
their program which showed tact on
the part of their teacher and talent
in the pupils. Their costumes were
very striking and their pieces ap-
propriate. Miss Henderson graci-
ously presided at the piano. At the
close of this entertainment a recep-
ton was given, refreshments were
served from three booths. A histor-
ical contest was one of the features
of the evening.
The Presidents in Rhyme, and

who came with fixed and sturdy
purpose and determination to make
the club success; and after plain,

The organization as it came to-

concentration of the efforts of a few.
Today it is an active organization of
125 souls who have combined to-

materialize in the early summer and
wake up to the realization of the
fact that the Aberdeen Country Club
