IN MEMORY OF ISAAC ATKINS
COLEMAN.

Again in our little circle at Bar
gerton we have had to say farewell
when the grim reaper took for his
victim, Isaac Atkins Coffman. He
was born January LIST, 1853, and de-
parted this life Wednesday, August
25th, 1920, aged 62 years, 7 months
and 25 days.
On December 18th, 1896 he was
married to Dora Anna Douglass and
to this union was born one loving
daughter, Beulah MRS. Elmer Mi
LAM
He obeyed the gospel and was add
ed to the Church of Christ in 1915,
and we believe he made his calling
sure. His traits of character were
unexcelled, We loved him, Oh so
much, but God loved more, and His
will not ours be done,
Beside his wife and daughter he
leaves a host of other relatives and
friends to mourn their loss, but our
loss is his eternal gain and heavens
joy.
He was sick only a short time when
the summons came. He endured his
suffering with patience and was per-
fectly conscious when the end came
and ne went quietly to sleep in Jesus.
His life has indeed been a blessing
to those with whom he came in con-
tact. To know him was to love him.
He numbered his friends by his ac-
quaintances. He was a Democrat
and a man of fine sense of human ma
ture.
He will be sadly missed. AS we look
about us there are vacant places that
can never be filled. 1t seems so hard
to part with our dear ones. IL we had
our way Gods will would seldom be
done in death-but God knoweth and
doeth all things we'll. He giveth and
He taketh away. He was a light in
his home and those about him and by
whom so many words of kindness
have been spoken. Those precious
memories stored up in our minds will
be golden heritage and a treasure
that fadeth not away.
The years back Of us are full of
voices--voices eloquent and pathetic.
The broken rings, withered garlands,
voices once filled with fragrant flow
ers and the white faces of our loved
ones that sleep will haunt US still.
There is but little to regret. Christ
said there is little need to weep over
just man who has departed" We
should rejoice in the divine assurance
that the time is coming when the UNI
answered longings Of our hearts will
be made known. The nights will melt
in the moon and the mystery will be
death IN glory.
Funeral services were conducted by
Rev. ]. R. Page, after which inter-
ment was made in the Waller ceme-
terry in the presence Of a large crowd
of relatives and friends. The grave
was covered with beautiful flowers.
There remaineth a rest to the people
Of God
1t is said that one we cherish,
| Should be taken from our homes.
But the joys that do not perish
Live in our memory alone.
All the days we spend together,
All the happy, golden hours,
Shall be cherished in remembrance,
Fragrance sweet from memory's
flowers.

SOLDIERS FROM WlLDS

Fifty soldier boys en- route to their
homes in different parts of the United
states were in albuquerque for a
short time Thursday night. The boys
had but recently arrived in San Fran
cisco on the transport Logan from
Vladivostok, Over 1000 soldiers came
over in the ship. According to one
of the boys, who was seen at the Y.
NJ. C. A. building, they were the last
of the soldiers TO come from there who
had been in that country for any
length of time. The boys who were
here Thursday night had spent seven
teen months in and around Vladvo-
stok, guarding the railroad, and to
say they were glad to again reach the
good old United states is putting it
mildly.
According to the soldier, who was in
terviewed. the japanese are now
flooding that country with soldiers, 1t
has been estimated they now have
in the neighborhood of $4,000 soldiers
in that vicinity. Very few men from
European countries remain there, the
British having withdrawn their troops

AUTO DEALERS TO
STAGE SHOW HERE
MARCH 4, s AND 6

Albuquerque is going TO put on the
biggest automobile show ever staged
in the southwest. This announce
ment was made following a meeting
of the Albuquerque Automobile Deal
ers' association at the Chamber of
Commerce last night. Every dealer in
the city has entered into the matter
with vim and push and an exhibition
on a more gorgeous scale than any
thing previously attempted may be
expected by the public,
q Not only has the number of auto
mobile and truck users increased
during the last twelve months. but
there are motor driven vehicles now
being handled by Albuquerque deal
ers which have never been exhibited
here. This increase in types of cars
will give wider scope to draw from
for exhibition purposes, and TINS,
coupled with the fact that more peo-
pie are using motor cars now than at
any time in the past, inclines local
dealers to believe that the show March
4, and will surpass in every way
all previous affairs of this nature.
While the program in detail has not
been worked out, it was announced
that there will be a concert each
night from to 10 o'clock. followed
by dancing from 10 to IL o'clock.
Friday night will be society night and
Saturday night governors night. the
same as last year. te
Secretary Watkins of the Chamber
of Commerce last night sent a mes
sage to the Curtiss- Humphreys Air
plane company asking that arrange
ments be made. if possible, to have
the airplane which the company con-
templates sending here arrive on or
about March 4 and stay vuntl the
auto show closes.
G. NJ. Barber was selected to man.
age the show which will be held in
the armory.

day and made an examination of the
paving work on East Central avenue
that has been so unsatisfactory TO the
people and the Ell Paso Bitulithic
company contractors. Mr.. Burdge,
while admitting the paving was de-
fective, said he was at a loss to know
the cause and would forward some
samples to the laboratory in Boston
for analysis, Reports will probably
be received within the next ten days.
Mr.. Burdge, together with the con-

blocks will have to be taken up and
replaced. 1t was thought at first tina
the "hot Stuff may have been too
cold at the time it was rolled. While
this may cause defect in one place
it would not cause general defect
such as has appeared in this instance.
