lations and that you not for one mo-
ment overlook the fact that what you
are called on to do is just as i'm

all of us and the rules laid down by
the Federal Government as to the
uses of -four and meat is done with
the view of protecting the homes of
each and every man, woman and
child in the whole country. am
sure that none of us wilfuliy intend
to be selfish, but it is important that
we cooperate with the Government
about food. This must be done for
the sake of our boys across the wat
ers and to win the war. ] am writ

IN MEMORIAM.

AS long as life shall last memory
will hold a sweet and beautiful pic
ture of the gathering of friends WITH
the family around the newly made
mound above all that was mortal Of
(Mrs. r. H. Hattie Rhodes Williams,
in the beautiful City of the Dead on
last Sunday afternoon. When the
angel of death had come some days
before and carried to her Heavenly
home, this bright and lOvable spirit,
circumstances prevented her friends
and loved ones from following to its
last resting place the earthly taber-
nacle of this splendid christian wo-
man. devoted mother, loving wife and
true friend. Those who and loved her
best wanted to show proper respect
to the memory of this pure and saint
ed character. Accordingly they gath
cred around the flower covered mound
and listened to the comforting words
of the man of God who spoke so feei-
ingly of the faithful christion life OF
her who had gone to that Home above
"not made with hands, eternal in the
Heavens" The gentle cadence Of
the reading of the scriptures, the
soughing OF the Pines, the bowed
heads of that little company Of
friends, mingling their tears with her
loved ones, as the sun slowly sinking
in the West at the close of a Per-
feet Day, made an impression on the
spirits of those present which will
never be forgot. Her sublime faith
in Christ and steadfast love for all
that was true and good leaves fit
ting example to Cher priceless legacy
to the world} her children.
Sleep on dear friend and take thy
rest. for such as thou there Is no
death.
"There is no death! an angel form
Walks Ger the earth with silent
tread;
He bears our best loved ones away,
And then we call them dead.
"And ever near us. though unseen.
The dear immortal spirits tread:
For all the boundless universe,
Is ife-THERE ARE NO DEAD" p"

BUY YOUR COAL NOW AND
CONSIDER YOUR DEALER

The suggestion Of Fuel Admins
TRAITOR Myer for the people to buy
coal now ought to be speedily follow
ed.
Every person who is compelled t.
burn coal in the winter should stock
up withinn the next GO days, and then
during the summer, if there is danger
Of an abnormal shortage, all coal
consumers who might also use wood
should buy few cords of wood.
Rules were' made by the fuel ad
ministrator as to the direct purchase
Of coal from the mines.
The Commercial Appeals holds no
brief for the coal men of Memphis,
but this much must be said in fair
ness. AS far as possible the coal
should be purchased through the 10
cal dealers.
They have teams now which can be
kept busy in the work of delivering
coal.
If ali of the purchases should be
made through the mines the local
dealers would sell their teams or
greatly reduce their operating forces.
Then this fall, if there is scarcity,
or such winter as this one was
which has just passed, there would
not be equipment for the demand.
1t is well in war to keep all or
ganizations going in the usual bust
ness way. Keeping always in mind.
of course, the necessity for economy.
We can get along with the coal
man in the summer time, but in the
winter we cannot get along without
him, and we should not starve him in
the summer, for he will not be with
US in the winter.
The prices of coal are regulated.
1t is doubtful if any money would
be saved, considering loss of time and
unfamiliarity with the work, if the
average consumer in Memphis bought
direct from the mines, looked after
the freighting of his car and under
took the delivery. If a day or two
demurrage should run up on him he
would come out big loser.
And the consumer should also
stand by the coal company who stood
by him last winter. If dealer
dragged. coal to your cellar through
the snow and the ice two months ago,
do not run to another dealer this
summer because you may be able to
save so cents on a $4,000 expendl-

years ago. He had been in charge
of the Lone Star plantation for near

his friends. He was clever to faun
and generous to a remarkable degree.
He had a host of friends. He was
a good business man and was true
in all obligations One Of the best
evidences Of the bigness of his heart
and the nobility of his soul was the
LOYALTY and fidelity of the many ne

under his direct supervision for SO
long. He is survived by four broth
