sympathizing with them over the loss
Of Their mother, Mrs. Mary Webb-Lock-

For thirty-fve years Mrs. Lockman
was a resident Of Greenville Miss. and
here lovely disposition and sanity
life made an impression upon that
community that time can never efface.
For the past ten years she has lived
in Nashville in the home of her
daughter The last two or three years
of her life were necessarily spent in
retirement, her illness having in
capacitated her for active church and
benevolent work, however those who
came in contact with her on their
visits to her daughters home were
deeply impressed with her piety.
After having spent seventy years in
this vale of sunshine and shadows,
the allotted three score and ten, do
ing her best in accordance with the
Masters wishes it was very fitting
that as day babe farewell to the hills
and mountain tops and night began to
cast its soft shadows over the rugged
earth, surrounded by those who low
ed her best, she should lie down, with
the draperies of her couch about her
and enter into pleasant dreams.
Mrs. Lockman left to mourn her
loss two children, six grand children
and two great grand children. Car

THE OLD TURNPIKE.


White the road, beneath the sunlight
Cleaning far as eyes can see,
Lulled by drowsy monday droning,
OF the honey-heavy bee,
Deep the fringe Of sun warm daisies
All along the dusty way.
Intermingled with the larkspur,
Where it flaunts its colors gay,
Here the perfumed-laden breezes,
Toss the swirling dust on high,
Here the cool and quiet shadows,
Welcome weary passers-by.
Here through clover scented meadows,
Wind the slowly gliding rills,
And the turnpike, long and Turing
Fades into the purple hills.

ITALIANS ASK
 J. s. FOR FOOD

WASHINGTON, Nov. 16. - The Italian government has apepaIed to the United States food administration for food to help feed her people and her armies. Fuel shortages have been one of Italy's recognized handicaps, but dispatches urge the need of immc- diate help in the way of foodstutts The message sets out some of the con ditions now existing in the southern kingdom.
 Bread has been standardized and none is sold until 24 hours old. Con sumption is strictly limited, and the ration even for soldiers has been re- duced from 75O to 600 grams, except for soldiers operating at attitudes above 67OO feet. The wheat is milled to 90 per cent and this flour is mixed with inferior cereals.
 There is shortage of all cereals.
 The government is attempting to limit the sugar consumption to b. 900 tons a month for the entire popU- lation, including the army This would give 800 grams, or about one pound, per person. The manufacture and sale of confectionery and all sweets is prohibited and in the larger cities sugar cards are in force. Very often holders of cards are unable 10 get their sugar rations because there is none.
 The sale of fresh meats is pro hibited on two days of each week, and the number of cattle slaughtered monthly has peen regulated
 Because of the shortage of home crops and imports, the consumption of corn by hogs was limited. This forced the slaughtering of hogs and while relieving the grain situation developed crisis in meats and fats.
 These are only the high marks in Italy's presentation of her case in re- gard to food and fuel.

FAIRBANKS WOMEN WILL FURNISH BED FOR
 AMERICAN HOSPITAL

FAIRBANKS, Nov. 16.-The wo- men of Fairbanks are preparing for a great time Thanksgiving eve to raise funds for endowing a bed in the American hospital at Neuilly, France.
 The women will edit the Thanks giving edition of the News-Miner for the same purpose. All money from advertising and sales will go to the cause.
 The Fairbanks women will not work with the women from the coast, for the purpose of furnishing a bed, but will independently furnish one, and possibly two beds.

DAYS IN
 FRONT TRENCHES

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN FRANCE, Nov. lG.-The mercury is settling steadily toward the bot tom of the glass and life in the trenches brings thoughts of wool socks and hot coffee more than of the dangers of warfare, at present The Sammies are gitting their first hints of the real rigor of a winter in North ern France, and the autumn rains which are continuously pouring down strike a biting chill into the flesh.
 There has been little excitement the past two days to keep the Americans warmed up, either. Some one has kept count of the shells hurled over by the Germans opposite and has es- timated that on an average of five hundred shots a day are wasted by the enemy. They have not succeeded in doing any appreciable damage with the bombardment.
 The U. s. Boys, however are de- lighted because they are convinced that some of their return fire fell either upon or very near a German battery position, and some strategic points aimed at. The continuous rain has made artillery observation and  sighting very unsatisfactory.
 The trenches are partially filled with masses of mud and water des- pite the engineers efforts to keep them clear.

ITALIAN HEADQUARTERS, Nov. l6.-The Italian Engineers of the War Department this morning open ed the flood gates of the Piaye and Sile rivers, northeast of Venice. The dash of waters which followed the opening of the gates is probably an attempt to drown out the TeutOnic forces which crossed the Piaye river recently at Grisolcra. All land ad- joining the district which will be GOV cred by the flood waters is either at or below sea level.
