MEMORIAM.

Alice Alliston is dead! That
sounds very strange to our ears
as we repeat it DER and o'er,
and think. A short time ago she
was young, fresh, and full of
life; but now she is dead. Is it
true? Did | say that Alice is
dead? Yes, but change that and
say that she is at rest. Yes,
Alice is at rest. Will we miss
her, did you ask? How can we
et-forget! Does the sun
forget to keep its appointed
time, or the stars to twinkle in
their brightness? Nay, verify!
Neither does image stamped up
on our hearts by those we love
perish or decay. No, we shall
not forget Alice. She was no
BILE, true girl, and we delight to
pay tribute to her memory.
She lived consecrated chris
tian life and died a triumphant
and happy death. She was in
her happy teens; the time when
youth stands waiting before the
half-open door that leads into a
fairer and more promising land
of dreams and flowers. AS she
would have entered a messenger
came up and said: Come this
way. It is best" No, we wilt
not forget-we cannot forget!
The night was serene and un-
clouded like those that came to
Bethlehem in the long, long ago.
The stars still serve as remind
ers, and the night winds whisper
her name. Forget? Never!
A chair at the table is vacant,
a place in the Sunday school is
left to be filled, but the work of
workman will go on and on.
However, the Loving Father
has thus decreed and we humbly
bow to his will. On Sunday
night, Nov. 4th, 1917. she fell
asleep, and on the following day
she was buried in the Silent City
at Monterey.
Farewell, dear friend and loved
one! | shall ever cherish thy
memory. On thy grave are
many tears for the parting, and
hopes for the meeting beyond
the river. VESTER MAY.

failure Of the corn crop to mature can
be largely prevented by earlier plant~

corn planting until the soil is warm,
because poor seed will rot in cold soil.
The proper kind of seed corn can he

past. Spring frosts do not seriously
damage very early planted corn. one
fall frost is worse than three spring
frosts. The earliest paintings mature
earliest and usually produce the larg-
