c. NJ. SoMERviLLE FOR STATE
REPRESENTATIVE.

The patriotism of our forefathers
gave US liberty, and the liberty and
freedom enjoyed by all who now dwell
within our country were bought by the
blood of the soldiers of the American
Revolution and those who died that
we might remain a united people.
The debt is ours and now when our
own flesh and blood Is going out to
fight that our noble inheritance be
preserved to US and future genera
tions, it Is for us to show our unqual-
flied loyalty and patriotism, by cur
every act and effort.
Now is the time we should realize
as never before what our glorious his
tory means to us and pledge "our for
tunes and our sacred honor" as did
those patriots who signed the Declara-
tion If Independence. to the support
OF our country and the men who in
this day pledge their lives that hu-
man liberty shall not perish.
The martyred Lincoln said of the
soldiers and sailors: DO they not
have the hardest time of It? Who
shall quail when they do not? God
bless our sailors and seamen, and ali
their brave commanders"
When the Father Of our Country was
laid to rest. these words were spoken
which should Eever die: Though
Washington is dead, Jehovah lives;
Americans, this God who raised up
Washington and gave US liberty, ex-
acts from us the duty of cherishing
IL with zeal according to knowledge.
In all the perils of our country let us.
remember Washington. The freedom
CT reason and of right has been handed
down to us on the point of the hero'sr
sword Guard with veneration the sa-
cred deposit.
Fellow countrymen. let us do our
full duty, lest the blood of our fore
fathers and our loved ones OF this day
be shed in vain. The spirit of Wash
ington and Lincoln must inspire our
deeds II we are to preserve THE Land
of the Free and the Home of the
Brave to future generations.
In the words of Abraham Lincoln:
"Wc have chosen our course: without
guile and with pure purpose, let us
renew our trust in God, and go for
ward without fear and with manly
hearts,"

IN MEMORIAM.
MISS S. MAGGIE BROWN.

On the morning of April 4, 1918, in
DR.. Highsmith's hospital, Fayetteville,
n. c.. the spirit Of this lovely Chris
ton lady was called from earth to
heaven weeks after a very serious
operation, which she bore with so
much patience, never known to m ar
mur or complain about her affections.
She had noble, sweet Christion
spirit: Her interest and love for the
church IN all its departments showed
itself IN persistent and enthusiastic
effort for its welfare. If any part of
the church work was dearer to her
than another it was the Sunday
school. She was always there unless
providentially hindered. She was
consistent member of Philadelphus
Presbyterian church. AS long back
as | can remember she was nv Sun
day school teacher. We loved her so
much, she was SO devoted to her work.
and her class in Sunday school. Al
great missionary worker always at
the ladies' missionary. She was pres
ldent so many years up to about two
or three months before she went from
earth to heaven. All society mem
bers loved her ard would vote for her
TO lead IN all the church work socie
ties, for she was willing to take
part in everything that was good and
uplifting. Surely her sisters and
brothers will rise up and call her
blessed. She was the Oldest daughter
OF the late w. J. Brown and wife
Amanda Brown. She was born March
26, 1861. She was 81 years young.
She had such cheerful Christian
spirit to know her was to love her.
HeI funeral was preached by her
pastor, Rev. H. M. Dixon, in the pres-
eence Of large crowd of friends and
loved ones who assembled in The
church to show the love they had for
the departed sister of the church. I

died and she did, the morning before

Flowers as sweet and pure as the
life of this Christian lady covered
the grave. They showed the esteem
in which the devoted friends held cur
loved one. Her going away was like
