CAMPAIGN NOW ON

The campaign is now on for the
raising Of funds for the Jewish Re-
lief work and we urge everyone that
possibly can to contribute to this
worthy cause. AS we stated last
week seldom do the Jews ever call
for help outside Of their own race
but always contribute to every
worthy cause themselves. Col. S.
M. Newmeyer has charge of the drive
here and we trust he will receive the
hearty cooperation of our people.

To the blessed Land of Room Enough
beyond the ocean bars,
Where the air is full of sunshine, ana
the flag is full of stars"
OF such was this mother heart.
She loved her home and her life was
an indelIible imprint on her own
and with this pure soul Astounding
in the faith Of the redeemed, "Tis
home wherever the hearter is"
Memories of this sainted mother
will ever cluster around the dear
children, children who would give
even the life blood that she might
abide longer on earth.
'NNith slow and noisless footstep
Comes the messenger divine,
Takes the vacant chair beside me,
Lays her gentle hand in mine"
Oh how she loved her Lord, her
church and lived the song
~ love. Thy kingdom Lord
The house of Thine abode,
The church the blest redeemer
saved
With His own precious blood"
She knew her life was in the bal
ance and to those around her said,
it matters not which way the plum
met goes it is well with me. We have
known Mrs. Greene from girlhood
to the grave and we are here to say
she was an exponent for all that is
noble, helpful and gracious. To say
Unto the arms of "Good, who
gave"-
The spirit fair has swiftly flown
Beyond the gates of day
Unto the arms of "God, who gave"
By Him twas called away.
Good night, rest, sweet peace.

SPLENDID LADY
3 PASSES AWAY
Mrs. Ella Greene; One of This City's
Most Beloved Women, Dies in
Lexington Hospital.

Mrs. Ella Wilkerson Greene, relict
of William Greene, yielded to the in
evitable Thursday, 3rd, at 7:15 q.
M, at Good Samaritan hospital,
Lexington, where she had undergone
a surgical operation. Rallying from
the operation, it was thought SHE
would soon be herself, but vitality
was so low that recuperation was
impossible. Everything known to
science was resorted to, even the
TRANSMISSION of blood, but all to no
avail.
Mrs. Greene was a daughter of
J. M. and Annise Wilkerson, and
was borne in this county in August
1858, and in this and Clark county,
all her life was spent. She was
married to the late William B. Greene
August, 1871. She is survived by
two sons, Cecil and Thomas Greene,
and two daughters, Mrs. W. Reid Me-
Kee and Mrs. w. Caldwell Clay; four
grandchildren and one sister, Mrs.
Jessie Hunt. At the age of twelve
wears she became a member of the
Baptist church at Kiddville and aft
er her marriage became a member
of the Mt Sterling Baptist church
and continued in the faith until
death. Funeral service was conduct
ed Saturday afternoon at the grave
in Machpelah cemetery by her pas
tor, Rev. j. S. Wilson, and the body
was laid to rest in the beautiful city
of the dead, beneath garlands of
rarest flowers, contributions from
loving hearts, to await the resur-
rection morn. AS child, the pass
ing girl, the young woman, the bride,
the mother, the friend, she bore a
smile, spoke words of cheer, admin
istered with loving hands, sympa-
thized, helped; gave even to the
"drop of water" She loved others as
she did her own. Her heart was
pure, her words inspiring and was
happiest when she saw the lost
saved.
She loved her country, her pray
ers were for those who offered their
lives for humanity and lived to re-
joice in the cessation of the distruc-
ton of lives by implements of war.
All, yes, she loved the stars and
stripes, and the national song,
America, lifted her heart Heaven
ward.
With that same smile, the inviting
hands and outstretched arms, she
prayed for peace and wished the
heroes home again, happy in all
that's pure and inviting; restored to
mothers, sweethearts, homes.
$50 it's home again, and home again,
America for me!
