Caroline II. H., widow of Lyman
Hall Somes, passed away at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. Madella
Lethiecq, in Brewer, on Friday at
the age of eighty-two years. Much
could be said of this woman, who for
years taught school throughout the
State, and in many of the towns on
MT. Desert island For years she
taught the primary school in this VIII
iage, which was the last school she
ever taught, resigning in 1907 when
her health would not permit her to
continue. OF cheerful disposition,
she won the hearts of her friends
and neighbors. by whom she was
loved. She was ali to family that a
mother could be, and will be greatly
missed in the family circle and the
community. Going to visit her
daughter shortly after Christmas. the
winter weather would not permit her
to return until late spring. when her
health had failed and continued to
fail until she was not able to stand
the long hard journey home. All
that could be done to make life com
Portable was done by loving hands.
Both son and daughter were with
her when the end came. Mrs.
Somes was devoted mother, kind
neighbor. faithful worker for the
sewing circle, of which she was a
member, and Christian woman.
She leaves one daughter, Mrs.
Lethiecq, and one son, Fred II.
Somes, of this village. The heart
felt sympathy of all goes out to the
grief-stricken family. The body was
brought to the home here on Sunday,
and the funeral was held Monday.
Interment was in Brookside cemetery
beside her husband.

One Way Of Looking At It

AT this time there is no international law concern
ing warfare, and if America or any other country
should be drawn into war, all the crueltes and the
barbarities that practiced in the late world
war would be at once be in order again This no
thinking deny, whether he believes in a
league of nations or not.
1t was by reason of no merit or foresight of your
Armenia or Russia, or Belgium The Lord directed
when and where you should be born and also Just
what measure of wealth and worldly possessions
you should have. We believe that any one who be-
lieves in the Bible at all will concede this to be
sound theology
Then presume that everyone holds that the
Lord is going to require of each one an accounting
for the talents and the with wealth which He has
entrusted them. If you believe in just God, you
must subscribe to this doctrine.
America claims to be Christian nation, the first
in all the world in this respect, and during war we
gained the confidence and respect of every nation
the face of the earth something we never had be-
fore, and which we may never have again once it
has been lost
Calmly viewing the proceedings in the United
States Senate during the past year, coupled with
the rather narrow view of our world responsibility
taken by the seemingly dominant political party,
there is little to encourage the people of other ma
tons to look to for help or leadership, and less
to convince them of the quality of our brand of
Christianity.

MEMORIAL

Died, on April 18th, 1920, at
her home in Pendergrass, Ga. Mrs.
Martha Amanda Belts. Amanda
met death without fear, she was
ready to go, and she has entered
her place forever, in the choir in
visible. The suddenness of the
blow that has fallen makes it i'm
possible for us to realize that
Amanda is dead. May we all be
as ready as we believe Amanda
was, to meet the great Judge of
all earth, clad in the righteousness
OF the Redeemer she loved so well.
She was a member Of the Metho-
dist chruch, and was faithful
and devoted member. She is sur
vived by her husband, Horace L.
Belts; four children, Henry Lee,
Nellie Mae, John Alfred and j. T.
Belts; also her father and moth
er, Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Wigley;
three brothers, j. R., II. c., and n.
"A. WlgleH.
The funeral was conducted by
Rev. Cliff Burtz, and the mother
and infant son was laid to rest in
Kemp cemetery. The choir sang

many friends and relatives attend
ed. The pall-bearers were her
first cousins, Messrs. Landrum,
Cecil and Reuel Belts, and Belts,
Robert and D. C. Carlisle.
Darling Amanda, she has left
us, left us yes. forevermore, but
we hope to meet our loved one, on
that bright and happy shore.

THE MARIETTA JOURNAL

We say this without any prejudice or illfeeling
against anyone but in sorrow that the religion we
profess has not imbued us a nation with diff
feren spirit toward the other peoples of the earth
than that which is so apparent and so loudly pro-
claimed IN certain quarters.
Our failure to go into the league has not return
ed Shantung to China nor has it effected any other
thing for the good of the weaker and smaller nations
than to make them still more weak and defenseless.
Our failure to join the league will not put us in any
better position to defend ourselves than we should
be as members of the league. We will not be able
to detach ourselves from the rest of the world even
if it desirable to do So
Without the league of nations, we will have to
build and maintain the largest navy in the world.
we will have to keep up army coast defenses,
war planes, munition works. and many other most
expensive things, and on larger scale than ever
before, and other nations will do the same, so the
old system will go ahed to another and more horri
