oRITuARY

bAIDAkI.
A remarkable and lovely home life
has ended in the death of Mrs. sallie
]. Wilson, whose gentle spirit winged
its fight to that still lovelier life in
the far-away spirit-world on the
morning o fthe 17th inst, at 1880
o'clock. Great and patient sufferer
that she was, the Angel of Death was
welcome visitor as he silently and
quietly bore her immortal spirit back
to God who gave it in that early
morning hour when all nature was
bathed in silence. But the eyes of
God and His angels witnessed the
triumphant flight.
Mrs. Wilson was the wife of Hon.
A. B. Wilson, and the mother of Miss
Madge, whom everybody loves SO
well, and of Rupert and Cecil, the
former of Logan, w. Va, and the
latter soldier boy now somewhere
in France.
She was the daughter of the. late
Rev. DR.. CARTRIDGE, an eminent and
distinguished divine of the Baptist
church, long since passed to his re-
ward.
Her sister, Mrs. Sue Wilson, was
the first wife of the Hon. A. B. Will
son, to whom were born two chill
dren, James CARTRIDGE and Louise,
now Mrs. A. B. Reynolds, both Of
whom are living in Washington City
with their families.
Immediately upon her marriage,
she joined with her husband in as
Stunning the cares and responsibilities
of life as she found it. She success
fully met these cares and response
bilities, as has been demonstrated in
the lives of her step-children, as well
as her own. All have been raised to
a noble manhood and womanhood
All hail to such woman! Her
home was her sphere, and we'll and
truly did she fill it.
In the midst of this life of alter
nate JOY and sorrow, worry and tri-
umph, she was great sufferer from
physical infrmity, but bore it with
true Christian fortitude and a SUI
preme patience that made her life
remarkable and exalted to those who
knew her more intimately-for in
the midst of it all she chung to her
sphere, and faithfully performed the
duties appertaining to her home and
to her family.
Truly could it have been said of
her, "She looketh we'll to the ways
Of her household" Che has patient
ly and successfully trained her chill
dren and given them to the world for
the worlds benefit. Is not this the
will of God?
Mrs. Wilson was born June 3, 1853,
at Monticello, Fairfield county, South
Carolina, married Nov. 27, 1888, and
died at her home in Greeneville,
Tenn, August II, 1918, in the 66th |
year of her age.
After a beautiful and solemn
funeral service at the residence, con-
Quoted by the Rev. o. G. Klinger,
Of the Presbyterian church, her re-
mains were laid to rest in peaceful
Oak Grove cemetery, early Monday
and over her grave was
strewn a labyrinth of lovely flowers.

CHURCH ACTIVITIES.

An English class of five confrma-
tives were examined at the Lutheran
church for membership last Sunday.
The pastor addressed the congregation
by showing that the confirmation was
pleasing God not because it is simply
a custom Of the church but because
everything which occurs in it is de-
manded by God, namely through in
struction in Gods work; confession
before men, vow of faithfulness unto
death. After the address the confrma-
tives made solemn vow to renounce
the devil and all his work, and remain
faithful to God in faith, word and
deed, singing the hymns: "Take thou
my hands and lead me-" The church
was crowded, even all standing room
in the aisle and hall being taken up.
On the same day new roll was
displayed by the Sunday school, which
contained about fifty names of in
fants, all of whom have been made
candidates for the Sunday School and
church, by the free wish of their par
ents and several sponsor, who brought
them to the Lord. The Sunday
children are very proud OF these little
tots and can hardly wait until they are
large enough to attend and hear the
beautiful Bible stories Of their Good
Shepherd. who is represented on the
roll, tending his sheep.

Report That Barley
Flour Is Unhealthful
Is German Propaganda

Stories that barley flour is not a
healthful food were attributed to Ger
man propaganda today by the federal
food administration. Persons circulat-
ing this line of talk are either con-
scientiously or unconscientiously aid
ing the enemies Of the country, it was
said. The stories tell that in various
ways the use Of barley flour causes
organic trouble.
r. A. butcher, assistant professor
of agricultural chemistry at the col
lege of agriculture. University OF
Minnesota, made a reassuring state
ment today:
BARLEY and it's products is known
to be uniformly fine food, said Mr..
butcher. Doctors generally prescrib-
ing barley gruels as the foundation OF
food for infants and for invalids.
Barley was in general use in break
fast foods and in breads long before
conservation measures made its
more vital and no question has ever
been raised as to its healthful quail
ties. In fact it has been conceded
that barley and it's products are de-
sirable from a health standpoint"

Mrs. A. J. Smith of
Minneapolis Dies At
: ter Long Illness

Shadowing the brightness of the
Easter morning, came the news that
Mrs. A. J. Smith, for a great many
years, a beloved resident of Sank Cen
tire, had answered the call of her
Maker. Mrs. Smith, who far the last
few years, has made Minneapolis her
home, had been ill for some time and
her death was not unexpected. Dur
ing the last twom eeks, her condition
had grown rapidly worse, coupled
with suffering which made death a
relief. She was II years old, her
birthday having been but the Friday
before. The funeral took place en-
Tuesday morning and interment was
at Lakewood cemetery. The i'm
mediate members of the family who
are still living are the four daughters,
Misses Edith, Ethel, Edna and Evelyn.
Mr.. Smith having died several years
previously.
1t has been impossible for the Her.
aid to secure complete obituary at
the present time. An effort will be
made to publish this in later issue.
1t seems barely necessary to print
an account of the life of Mrs. Smith:
it is craven in the hearts of so many.
There are some, it must be said, who
have the wonderful fortune to be uni
versally loved and respected. Such a
wamon was Mrs. Smith. There are
few of the older residents of Sank
Centre who have not profited by her
wise friendship. There are many of
the younger ones who remember her
motherly kindnesses and count them
as one of their life's blessings.
