DIXON SPRINGS
COMMUNITY MEETING

After taking a rest through the
winter months on account of the cpl
demic of influenza through the county,
the Dixon Springs Community Organ
lzation resumed its regular monthly
meetings on the first Thursday in
March. The program was taken up
mostly with the reports of the Corn
Club for the past year and plans for
Agricultural Clubs for the coming
year.
1t was announced at the meeting
that, through the enterprise of the
good citizens of the community, as
sisted by the two splendid teachers
of the Dixon Springs school, Misses
Kate Moore and Alma Ford, a new
piano had been ordered for the use of
the school and the community. Mrs.
W. w. Chambers, who was very much
interested in having new piano for
the young people of the community,
laid the suggestion before the Commu-
nifty Organization before her fatal
illness, and the Dixon Springs people
are glad that her plans have been real
lied.
1t is reported that a treat is in
store for all those who attend the
next regular Community meeting at
Dixon Springs. Further announce
ment of the program will appear in
next weeks paper.

AGED AND HIGHLY RESPECTED
CITIZEN GOES TO HIS REWARD

Smith county lost one of its old
est and most highly respected citizens
on March 18, 1919, when James A.
Thomas quietly passed into the great
beyond at his home in Difficult. Mr..
Thomas was 85 years of age and had
been a resident of this county for
over so years and was numbered
among it's most substantial and infiu-
entail citizens. He had been a con-
sistent member of the Cumberland
Presbyterian church since young man
hood. Mr.. Thomas was married to
Miss Evaline Williams So years ago
and to this union were born eight chill
dren, five of whom survive and are:
S. P. Thomas, Mrs. Robert Clay, Mrs.
w. p. Copas of Difficult, and Mrs. Lee
Duke and Mrs. w. E. Mcclellan of
Carthage. He is also survived by one
brother, jeff Thomas, of Macon coun-
ty. Mr.. Thomas, though very feeble,
had been seriously i'll but few days,
general breakdown in his physical
condition on account of old age in
firmities occurring last Saturday,.
The funeral services were conduct
ed at the residence, where Mr.. Thomas
had resided for many years, by Rev.
j. L. Smotherman of Carthage. At
the request of Mr.. Thomas, the re-
mains of his beloved wife, who pre-
coded him to the grave about six
teen months, were exhumed and a
double grave was prepared in which
both bodies were laid to rest in the
family cemetery. A large gathering
of friends and relatives were present
to pay their last respects to this good
man and to extend sympathy to the
