II. r. Richards. Designer and special Machinery Builder for Concern.
 Completes Long Term of Service.

Alderman H. F. Richards. ma- chinist- designer at the Stanley Rule and Level company, has severed his connection with the concern after many years of service. He first went to work in the Rule Shop in 1869, when he started in as an apprentice for the machinists' trade under the foremanship of his father, Henry Richards. In 1874, during the period of dull times, MT. Richards, in pref erence to seeing married men forced to leave their places, voluntarily re- signed. He then went to New York State, where he furthered his knowl- edge of machinery and the building of special tools. He later worked in New Haven and Springfield and Newton, Mass.
 Upon taking up his residence again in New Britain he entered the employ of the Traut and Hine Manufacturing g company, where he was superintc1- dent for several years, during which time he invented a mum Der of patents held by that concern. MT. Richards assisted his brother, r. H. Richards formerly of Hartford and now of New York, in the construction of special machinery. With the removal of the business of his brother 10 New York, Mr. Richards again took up employ ment with the Stanley Rule and Level company as a designer and builder of special machinery. He was in charge | of this department for several years Mr. Richards plans could not be ascertained today, as he is out of the city for few days.

OBITUARY.

Mrs. Nettie May Roberts (nee Fes-
mire) was born May II, 1901. She
was married to Mr.. Winfert Roberts
Dec. 27, 1918. She professed faith in
Christ at about the age of 16 years
and it is believed that she lived a
Christian life until the day of her
death, which occurred Oct. %, 1919.
She made the statement just a few
days before her death that she was
ready and prepared to go. She leaves
husband and father and a brother
to mourn the loss of u loving sister,
daughter and sweet companion. Be-
sides she leaves a host of loving
friends and relatives and will be
greatly missed but not forgotten.
Her funeral service was conducted
by Rev. w. A. Lampkin in the pres
ence Of large audience, after which
her remains were laid to rest in the
Antioch cemetery to await the glor-
ious Resurrection morn. ,
Though thy darling form lies sleeping
In the cold and silent tomb,
Thou shall have glorious awaking
When the blessed Lord doth come.

HUMBOLDT HAS NO COAL.

Humboldt, Oct. 25.-The people Of
this city are interested in the prob
able strike of the soft coal miners in
a very personal way. Very few citi-
zens here have secured their winters
supply Of coal, though many of them
placed their orders months ago. The
coal dealers have been getting only a
relatively small proportion of their
orders filled and in, therefore have
not been able to supply much more
than the coal necessary for current
uses. If the strike occurs, as it seems
it will, despite the best efforts of con-
ciliators, there will undoubtedly be
much suffering here. While timber
is to be found on nearly every side of
us, it is practically impossible to get
it cut and hauled, save in the most
meager way, and it is proportionately
more expensive than coal, even at the
present nigh prices of the latter.

THE DEATH ANGEL COMES.

Harry Laverne, the little daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. R. G. Milan, was
Born May 9th, 1919 and died Oct.
Gath, 1919, aged four months and "a
days. She was loved by all who knew
her, was such good natured child,
seldom ever cross or peevish until
overtaken by affliction which she en-
dured for forty-two days. During
this time she must have suffered a
great deal but she bore her affliction
like a little hero and always seemed
willing to take her medicine. She had
the very best care and attention dur
ing her illness but all that loving
hands and skilled physicians could do,
could not detain her. She must go.
The Blessed Savior had need for her
in the blessed home above, like many
little flower that he plants and cul-
tivates here seemingly for its fra
GRANGE and beauty and just about the
time that the little bud begins to
open to attract our attention with its
sweet aroma and beauty the Death
Angel comes along and clips the lit
tie stem and carries it to the realm
above to fill place in the Heavenly
home.
The funeral services were conduct
ed blythe pastor, Rev. w. A. Lampkin
in the presence of host of friends
and relatives after which her remains
were quietly laid to rest in the Pleas
ant Hill Cemetery, to await the glo-
rious resurrection morn. Our loss
is Heavens gain. She is gone but
not forgotten.
1t is sad that one we cherish
Should be taken from out home
But the joys that do not perish
Live in our memory alone.
All the days we spent together,
All the happy, golden hours
Shall be cherished in remembrance
Fragrance sweet from memory's
flowers.
W. A. Lampkin.

CUSTOM IGNORED
FOLLOWING TRIAL.
Ripley Man Gives His
First Public Statement
Endorsing Trutona
Highly.

Ripley, Tenn, Oct. 29.-"This is the
first time I've ever authorized my
name to be used in connection with
a medicine ad, but / feel that | am
justified in giving this statement
praising Trutona as the medicine has
proven its merits in my case"
Such was the convincing statement
made recently by V. z. Rush, a we'll
known Ripley grocer residing on
Brownsville street. Mr.. Rush, who is
81 years old, was born and reared in
this vicinity and he is known to prac-
tically everyone. Many will there
fore be interested in his statement
praising Trutona's merits.
II was suffering from the after eff
fects of the 'flu,'" Mr.. Rush said.
Il especially suffered from pains in
the back of my head after the attack
of influenza.
"I've used one bottle Of Trutona and
! want to say that it has helped my
case and ! am willing to recommend
it to those troubled with a generally
rundown system. Trutona has proven
to me that it is medicine of merit
and | think | am safe in saying that
it is a splendid tonic. / hope othres
will give it a trial."
Trutona is now being introduced
and explained in Lexington at the
Stewart Drug Store and in Wilders-
vile by the City Drug Store. The L.
S. DuBoiss, Son & Co., are the whole
sale distributors of Trutona in this
territory.

THRIFT IN INDUSTRY.

The factors and factories of the in
dustrial world of America are close
ly interdependent. Everything that is
bought has its bearing on the employ
ment of big line of workers going
back to the ultimate source of the raw
material from which the article is
made. At the far end of that line
stands the man or woman who obtains
the raw material from the earth--for
the earth or products Of the earth is
the source of practically all raw ma
terials.
Next stand the workers who adj
vance the raw material through the
various processes of development
and manufacture. Then the man and
woman who transports the article and
distribute it and finally those who
sell it to the ultimate consumer.
When you buy foolishly ,unneeessar-
lily or extravagantly, you disrupt the
long line of workers upon whom the
nation depends for its necessary sup
plies. By just so much, you injure
yourself and every other consumer
which means every citizen of the
United States. When you buy wisely,
intelligently and reasonably, what you
need, you do your share to keep the
workers Of the nation employed in
healthy, normal, essential procession
of production.
Thrift is not parsimony. Thrift is a
necessity for the improving of con-
ditions which now face the nation. To
spend money foolishly, unnecessarily
or to no good purpose is to disrupt
the production system and throw
away financial and material resources

We hold no brief for w. L. Doug
lass, the shoe msn-but we are told
that there has been an effort to actu-
ally run the Douglass shoe from the
market because the prices of them
are stamped on the bottoms Of each
pair-hence the dealers have no way
to further hoist the prices. The fact
brings to mind the suggestion that
Congress might make law forcing
the wholesale price Of each pair Of
shoes to be placed on the shoes as
is now the case with the Douglass
shoes-only the Douglass price is re-
tail instead of wholesale, and the
Good Lord as well as the dealers know
that the Douglass prices are high
enough. A member Of the Tennessee
Legislature once suggested, perhaps,
introduced a pure Shoe" bin but was
promptly squelehed-Of course.

sorely needed to reduce the cost of
necessary things. The en6eavor to
get along without the things actually
needed is not thrift but parsimony.
Thrift consists of wise and intelli-
gent buying, wise and intelligent use
Of what is bought, wise and intelligent
saving and wise and safe investment,
such investments as War Savings
Stamps, Treasury Certificates and
Liberty bonds. BY following these
precepts of thrift you will do your
part to restore helathy normal pro-
cessions Of industry and commerce
and solve the problem of the high cost
of living.-BUY W. S. S. STAMPS.
