IN MEMORIAM

Charles Preston Skinner, son OF
w. F. and Maggie Lee Skirher pass
ed from his early home, to one. not
made with hands, on August the elev-
enth. nineteen hundred and twenty
one at the Baptist Memorial Hospi-
tai. He was born in NoXubee Coun-
tv Mississippi: March the seventh
nineteen hundred and eleyer, and
came to Shelby County with his par
ents four years ago.
His school life was spent in Mes
sick school at Bewentyn, and in Cum
mings and Bruce school in Memphis
His short life of ten years ard five
months was filled with love and de-
votion for his parents and brothers
and sisters. and his vacant place in
the home is filled with fond memor-
les of his joyous, bright and boyish
life.
His mother was his companion and
many hours were spent in listering
to youthful stories which she loved
to read to him. Her service for the
master was also shared by him, for
he loved to talk of God and his home
in Heaven.
His gentle manner and devotion to
his mother was spoken of by his
friends and neighbors, and was an
inspiration to his playmates, by
whom he was loved He was always
ready to take part in all the little
games oft his companions, and they
will miss the enthusiasm and inter
est which he added to the game.
God has chosen him and he has
gone to join the angel choir. where
he will await the coming of his loved
ores.

Family Darning Machine

A sewing machine that will do the
family darning has been patented
says Popular Mechanics Magazine for
October. Its essential feature is a
steel arm which carries the intricate
mechanism controlling the shuttle
and feed. This is incased in ball
at the end Of the arm. In this way
about twenty parts have been elimi-
mated, making maintenance much
less expensive, ard because Of its
simplicity requiring less power to
run. In darning the bedplate covers
over the ball and arm are removed
and the sock is drawn over the ball
and along the arm. This construc-
ton also permits the sewing and
mtnding of vtrtous other articles
that require circular scanning.

NEW YORK-More than 1000
Fairgrounds and recreational centres
in the United States are helping to
keep boys out of mischief. teaching
girls swimming and other athletics
and showing adults how TO benefit
themselves physically and mentally
by play.
The effect they have in keeping
boys out Of trouble with the police
is emphasized in reports which have
come to the Playground and Recrea-
ton Association from all over the
country as one OF the most import
ant results OF the establishment OF
Fairgrounds In cities These facts
arc given in the year book OF the
association just made public.
The chief OF police of San Fran
cisco believes the establishment Of
ncighborhood recreation centers is a
constructive measure toward sup
pressing the crime wave. He asked
the community service to extend its
recreation work because he believed
/ that the wrong use OF leisure time
/ had much to do with the increase in
crime.
Granville Lee. supervisor OF the
Portland. Me. Recreation Commis-
/ sion. says that bad boys behave
J themselves better during the play
ground season. and also that there
are fewer street accidents involving
T children because of Fairgrounds.
The playground directors of Pay
F City Mich. have discovered that
summer activities on the play
grounds have practically eliminated

among the children. They note
