There can be but one Issue. The
settlement must be final. There can
be no compromise. No halfway de-
cision would be tolerable. No half
way decision Is conceivable. These
are the ends for which the associated
peopleg of the world are fighting and
which must be conceded them before
there can be peace.

Death Of Mrs. Emma Eliza.
beth Thomson.

Mrs. Emma Elizabeth Thomson.
wife ofMr. Frank NJ. Thomson, Jr.,
died at her home on Oaklawn
plantation last Monday. She was
the daughter of Captain and Mrs.
Will T. Jones of Franklin. She
was born here, and here her young
life developed until she reached
the charms and graces of her beau
tiful womanhood. She possessed
in their fullness all those tender
qualities Of mind and heart which
beautify and adorn the sweetness
of womanly character. To her
gentle soul life was real. life was
genuine. and the bright jewels
that glitter to the fulfillmcnt of her
short mission on earth, proved that
to her tender, clinging soul. the
beauty and purity of life was love.
Those who lived within the influ-
ence of her gentle personality,
know full we'll that love and con.
slant affection for kindred and
friende, loving gentleness for all
living was the guiding motive in
the life of this dear departed lady.
On the 2lst of August. 1911, she
married Mr.. Clarence D. Feeney.

She is survived also by her little
daughter, her father aud mother.
two sisters. Mrs. Frank Everett, of
Gueydan, La, and Miss Helen
Jones, of Franklin, and Captain
Thomas Jones of the United States
Army.
The deepest sympathy of our
whole community is with them in
their sorrow. Human coincidence,
We know, cannot lessen grief.
Memory consecrates the virtues Of
the beloved dead; no human sen-
timent can appease the agony of
the stricken heart, or fill the void
made by death.

Rehabilitation Will Be Slow.

The following ia a copy of a tel.
egram received by Mr.. C. D. KEN
per, on Sunday, Nov. 10. which
we are requested to publish:
On behalf of United War Work
Campaign Committee, Chairman Mott
requests that I relay the following:
"Our united conclusion is that no
matter how near or how distant per-
manent peace mas be, the long period
of rehabilitation and the period
which will p:ecedc rehabilitation will
present greater need than ever for the
service Of the seven Cooperating Or
CARNATIONS. and therefore that the
requested over subscription of fifty
per cent is most necessary. Our adj
visars of the American Army AID

conferred on the subject with War

service. The months following vic
torious ending of war will be accom-
panied with special dangers; We need
not be solcitous for our soldiers and
sailors when they are drilling and
fighting and confronting the great add
venture Of life and death. but Father
when this great excitement is with
drawn and discipline is relaxed and
hours of leisure multiplied and temp
tatiOns are increased, the seven or
CARNATIONS will then be more needed
than ever to prevent the period of de-
mobilization from becoming period
of decentralization. 1t took over two
years to complete disqualification az
ter the FrAncO-Prussian war. eighteen
months after the Turco-Russian war,
sixteen months after Spanish Ameri-
can war. ten months after South Afri-
can war, and thirteen months after
Russo-Japanese war. All with whom
we have consulted agree that it will
require more than one year to de.
mooolize American Forces. For this
period of graveSt danger. our Organi-
cations are planning to enlarge great
ly our physical and social program
by presenting such helpful counter
attractions a. to keep nen from wroug
associations and practices We are
also extending great educational pro-
gram, involving use of thousands of
teachers and spending millions of dol

books. A remarkable religious pro-
gram will be conducted, including use
of leading religious preachers and
teachers of America. TO occupy al,
of the time of our tneo in these useful
