VALUABLE AID TO
ARMY In BURROWS.
n, G. & st. |. Railway to Pro-
duce Food Crops on Its Twelve
Demonstratin Farms.

In Line with the suggestion of
President Wilson and the u. S.
Department of Agriculture. the
| twelve demonstration farms of
the Nashville, Chattanooga & st.
Louis Railway, representing 1, 763
acres, will be turned over to the
cultivation of food crops during
the war, the company having an
nounced that its plans for the
working out of a system of crop
rotation had been abandoned for
the present and that it would de-
vote its efforts toward increasing
the production of crops for the
feeding of man and beast.
In this work the road will work
along the lines suggested by the
Federal and state agricultural de-
partments, and Mr.. Joseph H.
Judd, in charge of the farming
interests of the company, says
that instead of the system of crop
rotation planned at the various
farms they would be devoted to
the raising of food crops strictly.
He said that every farm foreman
and laborer would be furnished
the ground and given the imple-
ments and time to put in gar
den for the needs of his family,
and that all plans the company
had made for soil fertility. crop
rotation etc., would be abandoned
until the close of the war. Corn,
cow peas, soy beans ssand other
food crops would be put in and
this, it is believed, will be great
ly augment the production of food
crops IN the territory.
The company operates demon
stration farms at Tullahoma.
Decherd, Martin, Paris, Somer-
vile, st. Andrews, Smartt's Spen-
Ger, Clifty, Murffeesboro, Dick
son and Albertsville, Ala.
For several years the road has
been cooperating with the FEEDER
al and State agricultural authori-
ties in an effort to build up the
agricultural and live stock resour-
ces of it's territory, and this move
is in line with the other efforts
which are being expended to meet
an emergency and to do its bit"
in the present crisis when food
crops are absolutely essential to
meet present day conditions.

CHILDHOOD IN DISTRESS

Six little children from one to
ten years of age less than four
months were bereft of both par
ents. The mother having died of
typhoid fever in August and the
father in Novemberof pneumonia,
leaving these little fellows in a
cold world with no one to care for
them. This is just one case out
many that comes to the attention
of the Tennessee Children's Home
Society. There are always a
large number of children from
tiny infants up to seven years of
age, who are as bright by nature
as the best. These are attractive,
beautiful children for whom the
Society is very anxious to secure
good family homes where they
may be cared for. If any reader
of this article would like to take
one of these little ones on trial
for three months, if it does not
meet the requirements of the
home it can be returned. write B.

YE PILGRIMS,

WrtIltn for tie Ntws.
Ye pilgrims who looked up for the train
Descending with Jesus a-coming again,
Ye often delighted to be talking of Him,
Then don't be offended, I'll tell you a
dream.
/ dreamed | was out, to the east cast
mine eye,
The atmosphere calm and serene was
tho sky,
So calm, still and awful, tremendous

/ thought the last judgement was
dawning to light.
With awe and with trembling, in the
east did see
An opening above and voice saying
-s ..... "Fly!"
1t was to an angel, saw him come out:
His call, Come to Judgement" like
thunder did shout.
Receiving the echo the armament ruAg,
The dreadful commanding voice
sounded along,
This awful impression my soul did
possess,
Now judgement has come, there's no
altering the case.
The dead all arose Immediately then,
And covered the earth with both wo-
men and men,
All standing together--'tis hard to in
dite
The aspect most shocking surprising
the sight
A pillar of cloud in the east did appear,
A throne in the midst on which Jesus
safe fair;
A. coming along the ETHEREAL bright
s2M plain,
A-soaring aloft till the midst He did
l thought of the prophets foretelling us
We all should see Jesus, it's come TO
pass now.
The lovers, the mourners, the children
of spite,
And they that have pierced Him shall
not shun the sight.
A pavement OF blue from the cloud did
go forth,
Extensive reaching from south to tho
north,
On which holy angels stood almost
complete,
And glorifled spirits in harmony sweet
Then next heard Jesus say, "Come
you up here,
Then all the blessed nations up gently
did steer
And quitting With sweet pleasure did
sing
A song that had never before tuned q
string.
Then in the sweet transport my feet
left the ground
Without any motion of body or sound,
My joys were unspeakably full of de-
light,
So loud was the music ic wakened me
quite.

lin MEMORY OF MARTHA
WALLEN.

" n LIEN
Mrs. Ida WalliR died at her
home in Colum bus, Ohio, Sep
TENDER oath, i1917, at the age of
about As years. She was born in
Versailles, Ohio Jan 10th, 1872,
being the youngest daughter of
James and Elizabeth Daugherty
who were life long residents of
the same village. She was mar
ried May 18th 1886 to Arthur
Wallin who came to this commun.
ity from Crab Orchard, KY, some
years prior to that time. Two
children were born to this union,
James aud Virginia, who with
their bereft father reside in
Colum bus, Ohio.
Shortly after her marriage,
Mrs. Wallin and her husband left
Versailles, residing in various
cities of she South, Mr.. Wallin' s
interest being such as to take
him to many of the States of
that region. For perhaps ten
years, however, the family home
has been in Colu m bus, and it
was here that this good wife and
mother PISSED away.
Mrs. Wallin was "a woman of
rare grace and exceptional char
acter. AS girl her sunny dis
position and pleasant manner en-
deared her to all who knew her.
She was educated in the Versail-
les schools, graduating from the
local High School with the class
of 1888. For some years follow.
ing her graduation, Mrs. Wallin
was a teacher in the schools OF
Ven sailles and other places, a
work for which She was well
fitted by nature and in which
she met with extraordinary sue
cess. Many are the young mel
and women of this community
who today, acknowledge their
most cherished am bitions to have
been inspired by the splendid
teaching and example of thi:
good woman.
Mrs. Wallin Was splendid
woman; good wife and a fon.
mother. She was stricken will
the malady which resulted in he
death, when in the fuilness 10
hope of life, when her futur
appeared most radiant, and whsl
her tive children were just turn
ing to young manhood and won

The progress..of her illness va
rapid and the last few months q
her life were attended with tn
most intense suffering. Vel
withal, she was patient, bearing
her lain without cUm plant, all
when she saw that lrecovery al

slble, became resigned to he
condition and calmly awaited tn
end. Jas the Summer se.sUi
