Mr.. Jno. A. Conwell, aged IS years,
died at his home on East Church
street in this city Saturday evening,
July 2Sth at 1850 o'clock after a brief

the sincere sympathy of u people is
extended to his bereaved widow in her

Mr.. Conwell had been a citizen Of this

greater part of that period being the

age Company's plant.
His funeral took place at the Cath
olic church at II o'clock yesterday
morning, being conducted by Father
Clerico-and the interment followed

AN APPEAL FOR RED CROSS
WORKERS..

I have just returned from Memphis,
where l had the privilege of visiting
the Red Cross headquarters, and by
request of the Work Committee of u
Chapter, tried to get all the informa-
ton possible to assist them in carving
on their work here.
found it the busiest place in Men,
phis. l have never seen such enthu-
siasm and earnestness as was mani
tested by the good m of that
city. Some of them have given their
entire time for the past three months
and hundreds of others volunteer their
services every day in the sewing and
knitting departments. Large classes
are in the surgical dressing depart
ment also, all dressed in the Red Cross
uniform, making a beautiful sight. All
the work is carried on in the same
downtown building centrally located.
They have already made and shipped
great boxes of the needed supplies
and are fast completing another ship
ment.
found that the work here was pref
ty we'll organized and l don't think
the committee should feel discouraged
with the progress they have made in
SO short a time, and with the faithful
few who have labored so earnestly
with them, for it is almost miraculous
the vast amount of work they have
accomplished during the past month.
The sad part of it to me is that so
few of our splendid and capable wom-
en- have realized what a %stupendous
task is before US, and the duty Of
every one to do her part for the COM
fort of our boys who are going to
risk their lives for US. Can't we
afford to give our time and strength
for the noble man Hood of our great
nation?
There is a place for everyone. If
you can't sew you can rip-for that is
being done every day. If you don't
know how to knit, come and be
taught.

Collards, kale and cabbage seed

in August. Plant them thick an inch
deep in the drill and thin the plants
to Is inches apart when they are a
couple of inches tall.
It is almost too late to set Tomato

Beets, carrots and turnips shoul'
