Referring to the life of Mrs. Will
liam T. Young, whose death was pub
Eshed in the Times last week, the
Rev. G. II. Clayton, a close personal
friend of the deceased, writes as fol-
lows: "Aunt Rachel" as she was af-
fectionately known, was richly en-
dowed with queenly qualities of
Christian character, uniformly kind
and courteous, and attracted to her
self host of loyal friends. She was
a charter member of Ewell Methodist
Protestant Church, having been con-
verted at the early age of ten years.
She was regular and faithful COM
municant until impaired health pre-
vented. She was successful as a
"winner of souls" Through her eff
forts as Sunday School teacher of
his boyhood, the writer was brought
into active affiliation with the Church.
An undying appreciation of this ines
timable interest in him during the
adolescent period, prompts this sin
cere, heart-tribute. A good woman
has gone home to God. 1t is easier
to live because she lived"

$125,0O0 with some insurance.

COMFORT IN THE ELECTIONS.

There is no great comfort for the Democrats
from a party viewpoint in yesterday gubernato-
rial elections in FIVE states because they seem to
indicate, at least to some extent, a desire for a
change-something inherent in American breasts
1t comes every so often, regardless of what party
is in power But there is comfort for real, red
blooded Americans, who love their country, its
free institutions and its principle of government by
the majority in the overwhelming victory of Gov
Coolidge, of Massachusetts,, republican, over
Richard II. Long, a democrat, because the gov
ernors resolute handling of the Boston policemen
strike, which he quickly crushed, was made an
issue
In this election Governor Coolidge evidently
received thousands of Democratic votes cast by
men who put principle above party, and who vote
the American ticket first
That is the spirit that makes strong people
and a strong nation. And both parties will prob
ably see great deal more of it before, the close
of go
