benefit to the state if he can carry
them through.

Your editorial on the influenza cpl

until people learn to stay at home
when colds G? develop or when two
or three Of the family are sicl, with in

in demand
If Il case Of small poX should appear
in a town people would expect strict
quarantine. Influenza seems to be
highly contagious and more deadly

If people who have it themselves or

at home, the only safe way is for peo-
pie who have it not, to stay at home

FRANK ABERCROMBIE.


On Nov. the 9th OasD the death an
gel visited our community and claimed
for his the sweet spirit of brother
Frank Abercrombie.
Frank (as he was known) was a
good, honest, man; had sunny dispo-
,sition and always cheerful, which made
for him many friends. On Oct. 8, 1918,
he underwent an operation for appen-
dicts and ever afterwards was a great
sufferer until that dreaded disease, in
auenza, seized him, which proved fatal.
On one bright summer day uring
the month Of August, 1903, he gave his
life to Christ, Q shall never forget that
day.. He left his mothers going to
his home which was one mile distance
and was soundly converted on the way
lie ran in home and told his dear wife
of this great change that had taken
place In his life, then hitched up the
t,mily horse and came back to mothers
and said to her, Your NOW boy has
come" and when it was known, all the
family and visitors were stirred from,
the very bottom Of their souls. That
same evening he stood before a large
CONGREGATION in old Bramlett church
and told what Christ had done for him.
This same Jesus whom he loved and
trusted throughout life, no doubt stood
by him even in death and was his pilot
in crossing to the great Unknown,
He leaves a wife and eight children,
a mother, six brothers and two sisters
to mourn their loss, but our loss is
Heavens gain. His body was laid to
rest in Bramlctt churchyarI beside his
little child, Palmer, who preceded him
to the Spirit World ten years ago. Rev.
Presley, dear friend Of the deceased,
conducted the funeral services.
Farewell, dear brother, till we meet
Before the throne Of God above,
And cast our crown at Jesus feet,
And sing the triumphs of his love
His Sister.
