With the Death OF the celebrated
Fanny Crosby some timo ago. Mrs.
Annie Sherwood Hawks was left as
perhaps tho last OF the noted writer's
of the gospel hymns OF the past half
century.
From her fourteenth year, when her
first bit OF verse was published i'm a
newspaper in Troy. y. Y, she devoted
large part OF her long life to the
production OF poems and hymns. or
her hymns which came into common use,
the best known is II Need Thee Every
Hour" which IS said to have been
translated into more foreign languages
than any other modern hymn
Mrs. Hawks, who was born in Hoo
sick. n. Y, in 1885, was educated In
the public schools and in the Troy
Seminary. After her marriage TO
Charles HAL Hawks. member OF a New
York banking firm. she lived in Brook
Ign until the death Of her husband I'm
1855. Since then she had made her
home with her daughter in Ecnninr-
ton, VT.
Her first hymns were written in 1858,
at tho suggestion of her pastor, DR..
Robert Lowry, who set several OF them
TO music
Not long before her death Mrs.
Hawks thus described the writing Of
her most famous hymn:
II remember we'll the morning, many
years ago when in the midst of the
daily cares of my home. ! was so filed
with sense Of ncarncss to the Master
that, wondering how one could live
without Him either in joy or pain,
these words. 1 need Thee every hour,
were flashed into my mind. Seating
myself by the open window in the
balmy air OF the bright June day,
caught my pencil. and the words were
soon committed 10 paper. almost az
they, arc being sung now.
TT was only by accident, as IL would
seem, that they were set to music
few months later and sung for The
first time at Sunday school convention
held in one of the large Western cities.
From there they were taken further
West and sung by thousands OF voices
before the echo came back to me-"
Among other hymns of which she
was tho author are THE Cross for
Jesus" Good Night" why wecpest
Thou?" Who'll Be the Next to Follow
Jcsus?'' and I'm the Valley"

Excuses of this nature are of no value and ignorance of the law cannot be pleaded as a valid excuse.
 Every merchant of Greenlee county large or small, should make it his duty to ascertain the requirements of the Food Control Act" and abide by them in both letter and spirit in the conduct of his business.

The desire of the Food Administration is to protect any community in the county against profiteers. The hearty cooperation of the wholesale and retail dealers. consumers and other individuals is re- quested in assisting me to carry out the food conservation program out lined by the Federal Food Administra- tor. Any information or violations of the rules and regulations that come to your notice should be reported without hesitation.
