Tribute to ray Dear Little Nc
Kie Waunita.

Baby has left her cradle for the
happy shore. We were not prepared
to part from our darling. Like bolt
from a cloudless sky came Gods
message "Come." We weep and Won
der why God took this rure darling
from US; so pure, so sweet, just three
months old. Our darling is not dead,
the star has gone down to rise in par
adise, to brighten heaven the more.
She now is bright, shining angel in
Gods home with no tears in her eyes,
no pain and no trouble.
Sometime our eyes shall see our
darling, that sweet face still in our
memory: sometime that dear little
hand will beckon to US to come. When
the baby angel meets US, as we go to
join the happy band, we shall know
our darling by her shining eyes and
face. We can see her now, her sweet
voice floating to us through the calm
air, that whispers "Fm watching for
thee" She is not dead-she no longer
needs our poor protection. God Him
self doth rule day after day.
She is not dead-there is just a
night between, and sometime we will
see her, she will never be taken from
US in heaven. Consider the lilies OF
the field how they grow, they toll not
neither do they spin, and yet l say
Solomon in all his glory was not ar
rayed like one of these" God has tax
en- thee to His holy resting place.

First Sunday School Conven-
81 - tion. ''''''
Editor The Advertiser:

Editor The Advertiser:
In reading Mrs. Minis interesting
paper, read before the Sunday School
convention, it brought 10 my mind
memories of the days that are gone.
Forty-nine years ago the Sunday
School convention of Edgefeld coun-
Ity was organized at Horns Creek
by electing J. P. Mealing as president,
Luther Broadus, vice-president and
DR.. Pat Adams as secretary.
Among the select choir on that oc-
casion were Capt. Markert, William
Bryan, Hugh Harrison, Will Penn,
Dick Bonham, Hammet league and
some others that do not now recall.
Miss Emma Roper, now Mrs. j. N.
Fair, presided at the organ. She is
the only one of the ladies and DR..
league of the men now on this side
of the river as far as / know.
The opening address was delivered
by D. D. Brunson who gave Il history
of the Sunday School movement from
its beginning up to that time. Out of
eight or ten preachers who were
present, not one of thsm are now liv-
ing.
The Horns Creek community at
That time was noted for it's prosperi-
ty, hospitality, gallant men and beau
tiful women. In thinking over the
happy hours spent there in my youth
full days, can to some extent, sympa-
thize with, what must have been the
state of mind of him who wrote:
"I feel as one who walks alone
Some banquet hall deserted"
One must grow (what the world
calls) old, in order to realize bow fast
times change. Of all the hundreds
of people who were present at that
first Sunday School convention, you
would be surprised to know how few
are living to-day. There were no min
utes published the first year but the
second year at Stevens Creek the
minutes will show a long list of del
egates that are numbered among
those who sing in nobler, sweeter
strain, the power of Jesus to save.
