THE OATH.

I will not drink from a German cup
Or eat from a German plate.
l will not deal with German man
All foul with German hate.
I'll use no drug with a German name
That's grown on German land.
I'll eat no food and drink no beer
If made by a German hand.
I will not use a German tool,
Razor or knife or saw.
I will not trade with German shop
That lives by the German law.
l will not sail on a German ship
Where German songs are sung,
l will not breathe where Gods clean
air
Is soiled by German tongue.
I'll not forget those awful deeds
To girls and little boys;
No more I'll hang on Christmas trees
Those blood-stained German toys.
I will not take a Germans word
Hell lbreak it if he can.
There is no love in a German heart
Or faith in a German man
Exchange.

JUST, AMERICAN.

just today we CHANGED to meet
Down upon the crowded street;
And / wondered whence he came,
What was once his nations name.
So asked him, "Tell me true,
Are you Pole or Russian Jew,
English, Scotch, Italian, Russian,
Belgian, Spanish, Swiss. Moravian,
Dutch or Greek or Scandinavian ?"
Then he raised his head on high,
As he gave me this reply:
"What, I was is naught to me,
In this land of Liberty,
In my soul, as man to man,
l am just American"

WHY BANKS MAKE MONEY.

A bank seems to be about the best
conducted of any business institution.
We have noticed this in our goings
about, not only in cities, but in coun-
try towns.
Their buildings seem to be the best
in any community; and even if a bank
be not conducted in its own structure,
the room it occupies is always fur
nished and decorated with the best
taste. a
Then, broadly and comparatively
speaking, bank handles its transac-
tions with more order and dispatch
and the clerks and executives are

APPOINTEE DEAD

Mr.. Clay Pittman, 80 years of age,
die0 Tuesday at the home of his son,
ESQ. Ben Pittman, in the 10th dis
trict. Just a few days before his

When VIM. G. Brownlow was re-
construction governor of Tennessee
following the civil war, Gov. Brown
low appointed Mr., Pittman consta-
bic for the Ninth civil district of this
county, which then comprised large
part of the southern portion of the

number of years, and because of his
fair, liberal treatment of his fellows
who had been on the other side, he
became one OF the most popular men
in the county, and he died in the full
confidence of legion of friends.
He was a Mason in good standing
and a lifelong republican. The fol-
lowing children survive this good
man: Esq. Ben and Henry Pittman,
Mrs. A. J. Miller, Mrs, Pleas King and
Mrs. Jim Williams, the latter of
Stephens, Ark. The remains were
laid to rest on Wednesday at the
Pittman burying ground, with SER
vices by his pastor, Mr. Pittman be-
ing a lifelong member of the Meth
odist church.

Death of Sweet Girl.

Wade Lee, daughter of lula and
John Rawls, was born Dec. 16, 1906;
died Dec. 6, 1918; aged ten years
and IL days. She was a victim of
that dread disease, influenza and was
sick only few days, but those few
days were days of great suffering.
Wade Lee was bright, cheerful
girl, full of promise for useful life
and it seems so hard to give her up,
even for a little while, but the low
ing parents are reconciled that Gods
will be done. The mother was in bed
with flu, and little baby brother,
Roy Clayton, had whooping cough
and could not attend the funeral SER
vices at Wesley's Chapel. She was
a good, sweet, innocent child and we
feel sure that she is at rest for she
talked of dying and said she was not
afraid to go.
| had known her scarcely year,
yet l loved her dearly. For the last
three months she had come to my
home every other day for music
lesson, and took the greatest delight
in her music. But, dear girl, we will
practice together no more on earth,
but | believe that some day we shall
meet together in a better world,
where we will enjoy the sweetest
music and where no note of discord
will be heard.
The members Of her Sunday school
class arranged lovely floral wreath
Wade will be greatly missed in Sun
day school and the junior missionary
society, for she attended both as reg
uIarly as she could
She leaves a father, mother, two
little brothers and host of relatives
and sorrowing friends-while she has
gone to join her older sister, Pauline.
May the God of heaven sanctify
this sudden death to the everlasting
good and happiness of all who knew
and loved her.
