five KILLED.;
ELEVEN INJURED
Former Tazewell Man Killed in
Wreck When "Memphis Spec
ial Ran Into Rear of Second
No. 4 Near Radford.

A. P. Delong, n former school teach
er in this county, was killed in Il
gailroad accident near Radford last
Friday night. The Memphis Special
ran into the rear of extra No. 1 and
smashed the wooden cars to splinters.
Four other persons were killed and
dozen or more injured.
The bodies of the victims aud in
Jurcd were rushed to Roanoke on Il
special train.
1t is presumed that the limited was
making about forty-five miles an hour
when it collided with the standing
train which had stopped ut Walton's
tank for water. The rear end of the
train was telescoped and 10 persons
of the limited were injured, reports
received stated. The cause of the
wreck is now being investigated.
There were number of local peo-
pie reported aboard the passenger
train No. but the only one injured
was L. Thompson, formerly of Blue
field, passenger brakeman who was
deadhcading back to Roanoke. All the
killed and injured were riding in the
last two coaches, these being wooden
cars which had been attached behind
the Pullman. When the limited ran
into the train the rear coach was
thrown on top of the coach ahead,
and hte engine crashed half way into
the next coach. Occupants of this
coach were caught between the seats
and crushed to death or injured. The
locomotive was stripped back to the
cab but no member of either train
crew was injured

1t Might Be Better-and Worse.

AS the year draws to close we
naturally "take stock" and look back
to see how far we have come, what
we have accomplished, wherein we
have failed. No doubt each of us will
conclude tilt in many ways he
might nave and should have done
better, and Will regret his failings
and nlisused or lost opportunities.
There was good old Methodist
steward in our little church at home
who always included in his public
prayers this statement: eve have
done many things we should not have
done, and left undone many things
that we should have done, and we
brt we thank thee that it is us well
with us as it is, and that we are still
on praying grounds and pleading
terms" And that about covers the
ground, states the case fairly for
most of us, whatever be our status.
After another years experience and
work, it is true-"it might be better
it might be worse" with most of us.
There is nothing so bad but that it
might be worse. There is nothing so
good and great that it might not be
better" "In the best of men there is
some evil. In the worst of men some
good" We cannot have failed to find
truth in these old proverbs. In none
of them is there cause for undue
pride, neither despair.
These, and sucil observations and
reflections have to do with our priv
ate, personal lives and condition,
physically morally and relieiously.
In the realm of business conditions
could hardly have been better There
has been work at high wages for
every one who wanted to work.
Never before in our history has
money been so easy and plentiful.
Living costs have been abnormally
high, but we have had money to pay
the costs. If dollar is worth only
fifty cents we have had the dollar.
Everything is about even after all.
we pay two prices for our goods, but
we get two prices for our labor. So
after all, conditions, altho they might
be better, might also be much worse.
AS the year dies and is buried in
the grave where all the past years
lie, rs we clip another year from the
calendar of our brief earthly eyis-
tence: there should be and sure
ly will be-a grateful acknowledge
ment of numerous and tender mercies
shown us by an ever bcncficient
Providence during 1919.

to pay for the Ford Educational
Weekly film which is run. This re-
port is circulated for the purpose of
iniuring the Ford Motor Company

His eyes, how they twi3kled his dimples how merry!
HIS cheeks were like roses, his nose like cherry;
His drowl little mouth7was drawn up like bow,
And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow
The stump of pipeshe held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like n wreath
He had broad face and a little round belly,
That shook when he laughed like bowl full of Jelly

He spoke not word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings; then turned with jerk
And laying his finger beside of his nose
And giving knod, up the chimney he rose
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave whistle
And away they all flew like the down of thistle
But heard him exelaim, he drove out of sight
