afflicted.
With not thought of self, but
grieving over the sorrow which
death had brought into SO many
homes, Miss Cunningham faith

ing words of cheer and sympathy,
until, completely exhausted, she
was forced to surrender to the
disease early in the week before
her death.
Miss Cunningham was born in
Georgetown July IA, 1895, and
spent her life there. She grad
uated from the Georgetown high
school with the class of 1915, and
has been a trustworthy employe
of the telephone company for
over three years, besides assisting
in the postoffice for the past two
years. Her father, Thomas W.
Cunningham, was formerly sheriff,
and is now commissioner of Clear
Greek county. N
By her winsome smile and
she had woven herself
into the lives of those who knew
her, and her memory will never be
obliterated from the hearts of the
many who deplore her departure.

Old Lady Dies; Last Of
a Dozen Children

Following an illness of greater
or less severity ofabout six months
duration, Mrs. N. F. Leonard sue
cumbed Thursday morning to a
complication of diseases, having
been seriously ill only one week.
Mrs. Leonard was 66 years of
age, and was born, raised and mar
ried on the same plantation, near
Marion in southern Louisiana.
She was the last of a family of
twelve children. For six years
she has made her home with her
daughter Mrs. Eula May, who
with another daughter, Mrs. G. B.
Powell of Loveland, and son, J.
Willard Leonard on the the firing
line in France, remain to mourn
their loss.
The funeral will be Monday at
two o'clock from the Pearce un-
dertaking parlors.
The sympathy of the community
goes out to Mrs. May who seems
to have had almost more than a
fair share of trouble. 1t is just
six months since her young son,
was taken, and three years since
her husband died. With brother
in France, and a son enlisted,
times must seem very grave for
this brave little woman.

 For several weeks military experts have been watching developments i'll this particular region. because it is a logical point rom which the Germans may be expected to launch great turning movement against the Arras sector During the early days in April. when the allies made final stand on the line which they now hold. the Germans centered their fercest drives on Hebuterne and the wooded hills to the south and west They failed to advance further and later lost ground 10 the allies at this point.
 The country west of Hebuterne iS quite hilly. with many steep ridges, which afford admirable defensive posi- tions North and northwest. howev- CT. the country is moderately level with long. undulating ridges which might be stormed readily by heavy masses of troops.
