DEATH OF MISS GILLILAND.

Miss Sarah Gilliland died at her
home last week after a short illness.
She had an attack of tonsilitis and
had her throat lanced and blood
poisoning set in, which caused her
death. She was twenty three years
old and just at the beginning of
life when everything bears a bright
look. She was so friendly and love-
ly in her disposition that she will
be missed by the entire community
and all who knew her. She was a
member of the Rocky River Baptist
Church and was interested in its
welfare. For two years she > has
been teaching at the Iva Graded
School, which is her new home, hav-
ing moved there from Antreville.
Funeral services were held at
the Rocky River Church conducted
by Rev. Mr.. White, the pastor and
the interment was in the cemetery
near by the church. She is survived
by her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Gilliland, and three brothers, Jack
and J. B. and a younger brother.

list she held before them the mystl-
cism of the religious life and il
lustrated the merit of that life in
her own living. AS scholar she
kept the flame of intellectual ambi-
ton trimmed and oiled by persistent
application to study and the eternal
anchorage in Christianity. In her
life and teaching beautifully blended
the value of scholarship cabled to
Christian character. Her soteriolo-
gy was Pauline in compass: Esprit
and soul and body"
: Having beheld the beautiful fruit
age of her noble life in her splendid
children for whom she lived and
sacrificed, and having lived more
than her appointed time-even to
four score and four years, as the
summer sun sinks peacefully and
gracefully to the setting and there,
as a queen in royal robes sinks to
its evening couch, so she in the ri
pened years and after her full, rich
life was lived, sank to the sunset
hour of death, full-orbed and in un-
hecked splendour: an example wor-
thy of the imitation of American
motherhood child of Coda dis
ciple of Jesus Christ.
Just before she passed beyond, a
stimulant was offered her. She feeb-
ly waved her hand, saying "let me
alone. Let me die. Let me rest. "
And thus she passed to her rest-to
that Heavenly mansion-where "the
wicked cease from troubling and
the weary are at rest"
Beautiful mother, beloved Christ
tian, sanity disciple, honored citi-
zen! You lived well your life here.
We bid you goodbye. Goodbye till

more would sing;
Ther~the remembrance of thy gentle
faith
Mother, beloved, would steal upon
my heart;
Fond feeling saved me from that
utter scathe,
And from thy hope I could not
live apart.
Now that my mind hath passed from
wintry gloom
And on the calmed waters once
again
Ascendant faith circles with silver
plume,
That casts a charmed shade, moi
now in pain,
Thou child of Christ-My Mother
in JOY, I think of thee,
And mingle prayers for what we
both may be-"

HOLD YOUR LIBERTY BONDS.

Secretary j the Treasury Nc
Adoo urges the purchasers of Liber-
ty Loan Bonds of both the First and
Second issues to hold fast to trcir
bonds. They are the best invest
ment in the world.
The Secretary's statement was
called forth by the fact that Liberty
Bond holders are being approached
from time to time by agents seek
ing to induce them to part with their
Liberty Loan Bonds and take in ex-
change securities which in num-
Der of cases are of a very question
able value, and was prompted by
the desire to protect the bondhold-
ers. against ill-advised disposition of
their bonds.
The Secretary expresses the hope
that every purchaser of a Liberty
Bond will realize that the only gen.
rine help that he gives his Govern
ment is keeping his bond as an in
vestment so long as it is possible
for him to do so. He states, how
ever, that no just objection lies to
the sale of a Liberty Bond where
real necessity exists for it's sale.
