IN MEMORIAM.

Mary Elizabeth, daughter of James
E. and Sc.rah tz-Fors.er, was born
the 2l:-. day of March, A. D., 1886, at
York. Sandusky County, Ohio. He C
she lived and received the educational
advantages afforded by the public
schools Of that day.
When she was lass, her parents
moved to Searcy, ArkanSas, where sh.,
was married on November he Goth,
1853 to Joseph Allen Hughes. her un
Gle, Rev. John Forster officiating. Sew
en- years later, MIR. and Mrs. Hughes
came to lronton, where she resided
until the Father above summoned her
home March 10th, 1917, at 3 O'cloc. p.
m.
She was the mother Of six chill
dren, only two Of whom survive her
Mrs. Sarah l.. Newman of this city,
and Mrs. Rose H. Leech Of Propico,
California. She leaves also nine grand
children and three great grand clll-
dren to cherish delightful recollections
of her sweet life.
Her husband died December 18th
1908. He was first Lieutenant O.
Company E., Goth Missouri Volun-
teers. U. S. A. His company was
stationed at Pilot Knob, and he was
the man whom General Ewing sent to
the top of Pilot Knob to signal to the
fort the approach Of the emmy. when
General Sterling Price on his raid
through Missouri in 1864 came to the
Valley. The flag used in signaling cn
that occasion, Mrs. Hughes recently
gave to her grandson.
Mrs. Hughes was true wife and
Il devoted mother. But her noble he ar!
was too generous to be hedged about
by home ties. She was the friend OF
the friendless, and a mother to the or.
phan, as was demonstrated when she
took two homeless boys and became
mother to them for five years, until ar
older sister could care for them. As ir
all good deeds, that act was truly
"bread cast upon the waters and has
returned many times over.
As neighbor, sister Hughes was
very highly esteemed. To know hei
was to love her. Unselfsh she sought
the happiness not only Of the member.
Of her family, but Of all others com
ling within the sphere Of her activi
ties. As we look into her face as sht
lies motionless and silent upon tht
last resting place that will ever bt
prepared for her, we easily discover
that death, while able to rob her fotn
Of It's vital forces, was not able to rol
Ihor face Of Its wont"d expression o.
peace, or Of that long accustomed
sweetness which gladdened the eyc'
Of all who looked upon II when anima

Don'ts for the Knitters of Socks.

Don't cast on tightly. An other
wise well knitted sock may become
useless by tight cord at the top.
Don't knot your wool. Join the
ends by splicing, or by knitting the
ends double for 2 or inches
Don't make heel with a seam on
the sole. Remember a man may not
have chance to change his socks for
many days, and lump or knot brings
a blister. If the blister breaks, blood
poisoning may set in and result in
the loss of foot or even of life,
We cannot afford to lose our men
through ignorance or negligence.
Don't use black, dark or bright
colors. Here again lies the danger
of blood poisoning.
Don't use needles too fine for the
wool. The knitting should be elias
tic, if too tightly knitted the sock
becomes hard and boardlike.
