FARMERS COMMENDED

The following letter from
General Pershing, Commander
in-Chief of the American forces
in France to Hon. Carl Voor-
man, Assistant Secretary of
Agriculture, highly commends
the farmers of the country for
the part they took in helping to
win the war;
"Wi.l you please convey to
the farmers our profound ap-
probation of their patriotic ser.
vices to the country and to the
allied armies in the field? They
have furnished their full quota

bought largely of Liberty Bonds
and they have increased their
production of food crops, both
last year and this, by over Il
thousand million bushels above
normal production. Food is of
vital military necessity for us
and for our allies, and from the
day. of our entry into the war,
American armies of food pro-
ducers have rendered invalua-
BILE services to the allied cause
by supporting the soldiers at
the front through their devoted
and spiendidly successful work
in the fields and burrows at

RESOLUTIONS

y In loving retnembTahce Of
our dear friend, sister, and CO.
worker, Mrs. w. d. McNiel.
W hose death occurred October
10, 1913,
Little did we think that the
Angel of death was lowering 80
near her, and that we were SO
soon to lose sight of her dear
smiling face, which always
wore the impress of her noble
and lovely character. Truly
death loves a shining mark. We
will greatly miss her from our
social and religious circles.
The whole community suffers
the loss of one of ito best friends,
her home the tenderest, gent
lest, most loving mother. Her
place will be hard TO fill by one
so kind and good. a pearl of
precious wolnanhood. Our sor.
row is deep, but not as those
without hope, feeling our loss is
her gain. Her face is lost from
our vision, yet through faith we
look upward and behold her
glorified spirit basking in the
sunlight of eternal bliss. Earth
knew no lovelier soul, Heaven
contains no brighter gem.
Therefore, be it resolved by
the Ladies' Aid Society and the
Woman's Missionary Society of
Wise Baptist church,
First:--That we bow rever
emily and submissively to the
mighty hand of God while it
smites, believing that He, who
is too wise to err, too mcrciful
10 be unkind, doeth all things
well.
Second:-That we testify TO
her faithful leadership ns presi
dent of our Aid Society for sew
eral years. Her loyalty and
zeal will be an incentive to our
future work, her life IL sweet
benediction.
Third:-That in our future
meetings we will miss her sun
ny smiles, her cheerful DISPOSE
ton, which swcetened the at
mosphere around her as the
flowers make fragrant the air
about them. Her sun went
down while it was, yet day, but
the glory of the sunset will
long linger around her men,
Dry.
Fourth;-That copy of
these resolutions be placed on
record, and copy be sent TO |
Big Stone Gap Post, CoalfieId
Progress aud Lee County Sun
for publication, and Il copy sent
To her bereaved husband and
children, as token of our sin
cere sympathy and respect.
