ONB of the fines, of all Mis-. Norris' splendid
novels. a story Of life, love and the beauties of
nature; told in the charming style and with the
absorbing qualities of plot for which its author
is famous.
Z The sisters, Cherry and Alm, opposite in type,
are also different in their natures and furnish the
contrasting characteristics upon which is built a
very human, captivating tale. The palmer, saner

IN MEMORIAM.
To the Worshipful Master, Wardens and Brothers of Green Grove Lodge No. 107, E. & A. M.

and Brothers of Green Grove Lodge No. 107, F. & A. M.
 We, your committee appointed to prepare and present a suitable mem- orial tribute to Brother Samuel W. Simpson, beg leave to submit the fol- lowing, sacred to the memory of our departed friend and brother. He was born in Baltimore, Md, on September 10, 1851, and died suddenly in Con- way, Ark, on June 8, 1921, and his remains were laid to rest in Oak Grove cemetery by this lodge with the beautiful and impressive ceremo nies of the order on June 10, 1921. In early manhood, Brother Simpson took up his residence in this state and adopted the legal profession for a time as his calling and was state senator for several years from Clin- ton, and gave the people the benefit of his sound judgment, his righteous character and his practice of square deal for all. Some years later he To- cated in Morrilton and engaged in the mercantile business upon a large scale and lived up to his profession of fair, square dealing and made sue
 
 fact that honesty in business can be followed and that 36 inches can be given for a yard, 16 ounces for a pound and that man may make his word as good as his bond with ap- proved security.
 In 1919 Brother Simpson came to this place, purchased home and en- gagged in business and was putting into his affairs the same rules he had observed elsewhere and the late depression of finance matters did not cause him to throw up his hands in despair nor turn from his course of rugged honesty and twentith cen- tury follower of the "Golden Rule in life business.
 Brother Simpson was made a Ma son in early life and loved it's tenets, observed its precepts and followed it's rules of living and was beautiful example of the fact that an 'honest man is the noblest work of God"
 His life was spent in right rela tions with his God and his fellow-man and we recognized in him the humble and ennobling principles so essential III llldAlIS llIt Neli IOuHucu 1iiI lStloi manhood and we firmly believe his life work will receive approval of our Master when sentence shall be passed upon the world on judgment day.
 Therefore be it resolved that in the death of Brother Simpson, this lodge has lost a devoted member; the state a loyal citizen and firm and enthusi- astic supporter; his church and Sunday school faithful adherent and zeal ous attendant; his family, loving husband and father, friend and defen- der, and the business world, a stall wart man who kept sin out of his business dealings with men and re moved as far as possible sin from selfishness and was one of Gods mo- blemen in all his walks in life.
 Resolved that page of our record be set apart for this tribute of esteem, that copies be furnished local papers with a request to publish same and that his widow, son and daughter be furnished with copies hereof.
 Fraternally submitted,
