A large crowd gathered at the au-
ditorium Sunday afternoon to attend
the annual memorial services of the
local lodge B. P. O. Elks. The men,
bers marched in a body to the au-
ditorium. Rev. J. Cleveland Hall of
Danville, Va, delivered the annual
address. Three members have died
since the last memorial, E A. Ben
cini, Sam A. Hoover and J. F. Hof-
man, and Carter Dalton, Robert A.
Wheeler and D. Fl. Milton delivered
the eulogies on the departed broth-

ceIlent and very impressive as well
as the regular lodge ceremony and
other parts of the program.
The members of the lodge each
wore a bouquet of purple forget-me-
nots in memory of their dead.
The program as carried out was
very interesting.

"IT is AN ADMIRABLE PAPER
Christmas Checks SeOn to be in Cir

AS it has done for the past sew
eral years, Home Banking Company

number of Christmas checks to mem

checks is being looked forward to by
a large percentage of our citizen:

years ago, the Christmas club idea
has developed to enormous proper

Bank is one of the largest in Gull

realize the many advantages of this
weekly system until it waslaunched
and operated by our Home Bank for
a year, but now there is hardly
child even in town who does not
take pleasure in meeting the little
weekly deposits with the view of re-
ceiving a beautiful Santa Claus
check during the holidays. In add,
ton to the attraction and help of
having some spare change at Christ
mas time, many of our people have
found this system an easy, conven-
lent and most satisfactory manner
of saving money and building up
a substantial savings account with
our Home Bank. AS every year
passes, MIR. Crowson, the chashier,
advi es Us, larger percentage of

this club was responsible for their
having any bank account at all.
This system is working wonders all
over the United States and is per-

among our people than any other
agency.
Thousands Of dollars will be dis
tributed by the Home BanR this
year and not only will the direct re-

circulation at this season will be felt
in every line of business.

RAISES PRICE AND USES MORE
WATER

The editor learns Of a case that
needs the attention of the law. A
man has been selling buttermilk to
a party and lately the milk shows
about one-half water and in the face
of this has advanced the price 20
per cent 1t is learned that the man
claims to be a Christian, too; that he
is regular communicant and prays
: thy kingdom eome,' etc. 1t is not
only against the law to sell the arti-

SAVINGS AND THRIFT STAMPS

War saving and thrift stamps are
now on sale at the postofice. You
pay $4.12 for each SIS war savings
stamp during this month and next

a good investment. Beginning Feb.
1st the stamps advance lea month.
The thrift stamps sell for Csc each

NATURE PAINTS u. S. FLAG

The prett;est red, white and blue
flag (the standard of our great and
glorious country) that was ever
painted, barring none, was unfolded
10 view Saturday afternoon at $40
o'clock. It was not the work of a
human being requiring days and
weeks, but of q Supreme Being who
placed it on the western sky line
just at the end Of a perfect day for
all those. W8ose eEesaTe prone to
look up, to see. 1t does not require
a stretch of the imagination to de-
scribe this beautiful sunset scene re-
fiected against the gentle clOuds-it
was as real as life itself, and we will
paint a word picture of the scene
just as it appeared, with not thing
overdraWn, no matter how strange it
may appear to those whose eyes
were not in the right place at the
time.
We were sitting in a little coun-
try home Cat PhilIipWelborn's) rest
ing from a three hours tramp after
robbits. We were looking out of the
window at the fast sinking sun and
just as the sun had split itself in
half beyond the western horizon We
noticed the erstwhile lazy floating
silver clouds tale on coloTing which
from second to second grew more
beautiful and when the last half OF
the sun was no more visible a halo
of variegated coIors spread out be-
fore the eye like a beautiful pano
rama. Here were red, white. and blue
stGeaks and my, what deep, beauti-
ful colors, and there myrlads OF
deep blue spots. The colors seem
to quickly adjust themselves and we:
looked upon the scene speIlbound
until beautiful red, white and blue
flag with sprinkIing of blue stars
was the result. There it rested as If
held together by an omnipotent hand
clear across the western horizon
with the folds playing to the breeze,
and looking close at the strange Dhe-
nomenon one could discern a figure
l and 9. These were plainly formed
we thought we could make out
two other letters but we are giving
the facts only in this case. Three
other people at our request locked
upon the scene. Such cOl0rs no NOR
tai eye ever saw before. We have
seen many strange phenomenas IN
the heavens but never before our
beautiful emblem which was fash
ioned after heavens beautiful col
ors, no doubt, to bless mankind
Every other nation on earth has a
war symbol on its flag, but look at
ours-only the colors of heaven.
Wonder if our flag is to be immor-
talized and emblaZoned on the
heavens in righteous indignation at
the cruelties practiced by Germany
and her hell born aggregation. Since
we were forced into the war ana
have announced to the world that
we are not working for selfish END
but only for humanity. me thinks
the God of us all has picked Amer
ica and her standard to carry out
his purpose in this war. Who knows!
