THE PEACE OUR SOLDIERS
WANT-THE PEACE OUR
WAR MOTHERS WANT

The Stars and Stripes, the official
newspaper published by the soldiers
of the American Expeditionary For
ces in France, says editorially about
the enemy peace offensive:
"Let the weak hearted who are
dreaming of a compromise; let the
pacificts who are talking peace by
agreement; let the sideliners who
have had enough of war; let the Sc
cretly inclined pro-Germans who think
this war should end without a deci-
sion-let them one and all know
once and for all that for the Ameri-
can Expeditionary Force there is no
such word as Peace with the Huns
unbeaten. The man who talks of
peace today, except through victory
is a traitor"
The enemy peace offensive is liken-
ed to the action of German machine
gun crews in the Vesle fighting, when
they fought and killed Americans
until they were surrounded, ther
shouted "Kamerad."
The mothers of the American sol
diers in France want the same peace
their sons demand. All the courage
OF the ancient Spartan mother is in
the hearts of the women of America
The object of the Fourth Liberty
Loan is to bring that peace-a just
peace, righteous peace, an American
peace.

OBITUARY
Mary Ferebee Applewhite

Mary Ferebee Applewhite, dau-
ghter Of Mr.. and Mrs. James 0,
Applewhite, of Tillery, North Car
DINA, passed from earth to heaven
on Saturday night, December 7th.,
1918-after a brief illxess from
Influenza, followed by Pneumonia.
That death loves shining mark
was never more fully demonstrat
ed, than in the untimely death Of
this beautiful, lovely girl Of twelve
years Of age.
The joy Of her devoted parents,
sisters and brother, it was a de.
light to watch her many attrac-
tions and magnificent gifts unfold
each day revealing new beauty !;
her one thought was to scatter
sunshine and roses in her home
and wherever she went. A most
unusual child from birth, endowed
with exceptional charm Of face
and character; the idol Of her
friends and the community.
The ways Of God are so myster-
ious, and His dealings with His
children Of earth past finding out
Heaven is brighter, earth poorer
and countless loved one and
friends are left in utter darkness
endeavoring to see His smiling
face through the tears, and deer
shadow which now surrounds
them in their unspeakable sorrow
and affliction. Gone to join tn
choir invisible-Oh, Lord help u
all to suffer and be strong. TIL
funeral services were said by Rev
Reuben Meredith of the Episcopa
church, and she was laid to res
in the beautiful cemetery at Scot
land Neck.
Not now, but in the coming years,
Well catch the meaning Of our tears;
We'll know why clouds instead OF sun,
Why song has ceased when just begun
Why what we longed for most Of all,
Why hopes are crushed and shadows f.
God knows the way, He holds the key
Sometime with earless eyes we III see
: Then trust in God-fear not, he hole
thy hand,
Though dark the way, still trust al
pray;
Some day, up there, we II understand.
