HELEN ROGERS cRIGGER


On Saturday, September rs. about
3 P. M, Helen Rogers Crigger, of
Munford. Tenn, passed from earth.
This loyable girl Of Ia years lived a
life of intensive intellectual activity.
She was the pride Of her school. Her
grasp of books was quick, accurate,
comprehensive. Also noble, social
qualities were so blended in her that
mental alertness seemed the least
charming part of her nature. Deli
cate and fascinating, female traits
clustered in her refined character.
Her sense of duty was keen and re-
sponsive to every demand; a tireless
energy was thrown upon every task
till it was accomplished, Duty and
service were her watchwords. On
Sunday a great throng attended the
funeral services at the Methodist
church, Of which she had been
member from childhood. The floral
tributs were many and beautiful. The
body was borne to the grave by her
schoolmates and laid to rest in
cemetery now named in her honor.
To her friends and acquaintance her
memory will be an incense and an
to her parents and grand
parents it. will be a consoling balm.
The father and the mother, Mr..
Walter Crigger, and wife, return sin
cere thanks to a host Of friends in
Munford and Lepanto, Ark, for help
and sympathy in their sore bereave-
ment. A. A. MOONEY.
