r. F. SAUNDERS.

We are authorized to announce Mr..
r. F. Saunders as a candidate for
Supervisor Of Beat 3. He is we'll
known, having been reared and has
lived in Beat 3 practically all his life.
Nh Saunders is a farmer and is
considered one of the most capable
and practical business men in the
county, and if elected would be a
credit to his district. He would take
the same interest in the affairs of his
beat and county that he has taken in
his own welfare, and hence would be
a man to give careful and favorable
consideration. He made the race for
Supervisor four years ago and was
successful in getting in the second
primary, but was defeated by small
vote. We commend him to the voters
as a most worthy, dependable and
trustworthy man.

Mrs. J. A. Bailey,
r. f. d. No. l.
Oxford, Miss.
For the third time since the organl-
cation of Company "A" 22nd Engl-
neers, it las been my sad duty to re-
port the death Of soldier Your
son Joseph was stricken with Cerebro
Spinal Meningitis on Saturday,
December 7th, and died December 18th,
1918, at $50 p. m.
Joseph went to work as usual,
Saturday morning on the truck that
distributes supplies for the camp, ap-
pareltly he was III good health; how
ever later in the day when lifting a
sack of sugar he complained of pain
in his back, and returned to his bar
racks. That night he was taken
violently sick and sent to Camp Hos
pital No. / at Gondrecurt, about one
mile from our camp at Abainville. All
the skill known to the medical science
for curing this disease was applied
but it was of no avail.
Corporal Bailey set good example
for the whole Company. He lived a
Christian life. clean and wholesome.
He was respected by all who knew
him, and loved by his close friends.
It seems as if death was determined
to pick the best of the Company.
Joseph was buried at 200 2, M,
December 10th in the American
graveyard near Gondrecourt, along
side of the other two boys from Com
pany "A". The Battalion Band fur
nished the music, six Of his squad
acted as pail bearers while eight men
from his company fired three volleys
over the grave Chaplain A. c. Rams
den of the First Corps Schoolat Con
drecourt, had charge of the services.
1t may be of interest to you to know
that our Battalion is planning to place
large stone monument at the ceme-
terry in memory of the brave boys at
rest cherc. The names will be in
scribed on the fiat surface of this large
granite bolder.
The company sends you sympathy
and love for we know that it is sme-
times harder to live for our country
than it is to die for our country than
we trust that the good Lord will sus-
tain and comfort you in the years to
come. You may well be proud of
your hero son.

The Penalty of Filtration.
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
am a girl of twenty and decrIy in
love with man two years my senior,
and l felt my love was reciprocated
until about six months, ago. Up to
that time he used to visit mo very
often But now his visits are one or
two. months apart, and each time &C
companied by an excuse.
believe this change can be ac-
counted Tor as follows: ! met a man
through Irritation. and found out that
ne knew the friend OF whom ] have
spoken. So l invited him to visit me
at my home. where we and another
couple spent quiet evening The
next time l saw my friend ! told him
| had met a friend Of his but I
found he already knew tn" whole
story lie said he didn't think much
Of a girl who nirted and the man
immediately severed all relations. be-
tween this new acquaintance and my
self without further question
Now, Miss Fairfax, 1 still care for
this friend and l want TO know what
ought I TO do.
Your story really has a glaring
moral. hasn't it? II a girl
wishes to retain the love and re-
spect OF a man. she ought not TO
ALLEVIATE him by flirting with
strangers. But in your came, since
you realized and admitted and, 1
suppose, regretted your indiscrc-
tion, I think your friend, if he fully
your attitude. might
have been more tolerant. Frankly.
l don't think he is justified. Since
you are still in love with him. I
wish l could help you, but the only
thing YOU could do would be TO 70
over the whole subject with him
the next time you see him. But 1
don't feel certain that would result
as you wish.
