BIRTHDAY PARTY.

Mrs. J. M. Thomas entertained on
Tuesday afternoon with birthday
party for little Miss Louise Feems-
ter; it being her seventh birthday.
Illness in the home prevented Mrs.
Feemster from celebrating the day
and Mrs. Thomas proved a true friend
indeed when she so delighted the lit
tie lady by giving her party at her
home.
Quite a number Of Louise's little
friends came, each bringing pretty
gift. Mrs. Thomas knows just how
to make the children feel at home and
a most delightful time was spent
playing games.
Delicious chocolate and cake was
served in the dining room, and the
table was attractively decorated in
ferns and pink carnations and light
ed with seven pink candles.

CHURCH DEBT PAID OFF

The Presbyterian church of Tu-
pelo Had a red letter day last Sum
day. In the first place, the deacons
reported to the church that they had
fully paid off the balance of the
church debt of SLIT, which at the
beginning was $4,000.
So soon as this good news had
been rejoiced over for little while,
Col. W. L. Clayton said he had q mat
ter he wished ITO bring before the
church. Many years ago, he said,
there were two little bare footed boys
who came tripping in to ths old
church building, Which sets back
from the present building. taking
their first lessons in the Book Of
Books. They have now grown to
manhood, been successful in business.
and in memory of their departed
grand parents, who rest in the GEM
etery here, and in honor of their own
living father, who was an officer IN
the old church for many years, and
on account of the love they bear to
that old church and the members OF
the new, and the beautiful little city
where they were born, and partly
raised, VIII and Ben Clayton, now
of Houston, Texas, had sent him
their check for $500 to be delivered
to the proper officers for the benefit
of the church. AS Col. Clayton de-
lineated the scene and pronounced
the word "check for $780," it would
have been interesting to have seen
the craned necks and surprised coun-
tenances of the audience.
The church by unanimous rising
vote expressed their thanks and graf
itude to these young men for this
memorial gift, and directed Col.
Clayton to notify them of this action.
The gift was perfect surprise,
none but Col. Clayton and his wife
having the least intimation of the
matter, notwithstanding that Col.
Clayton had received the check a
month and a half before that day.
