sponse to the remark of the angry one.
There is no question of the fact that if
the fire f1end were caught right now
he would not be gently handled. Little
school girls whom the reporter met in
the road Friday morning returning to
their respective homes as he was on
his way to the scene wore a look of
disappointment.
They had gone to the school expect
ing to recite their lessons for the day
only to find that there was no school
building. That is getting to be an old
story to them now. But the weather
was very cold Friday morning and they
looked not only very disappointed but
very cold as they trudged to their
homes over frozen roads-some Of
these homes long way from school,
First in Twenty Years.
Until the first Miller school was
destroyed in December, there hadn't
been rural school building destroyed
by fire in twenty years, according to
John E. Carroll, county superintendent
of education. Mr.. Carroll like every
body else Is very much puzzled over
the tragedy in No. 4S. So far as he
knows every thing has been running
smoothly in the district and he knows
no reason why anybody should fire the
buildings.
Not Licked Yet.
], M. Mack Brice, chairman of the
Board of Trustees while very much
exasperated is not yet outdone. Brice
has put in many hard days work
gratis for that school. He has taken a
great pride in it for number Of years
and he has proved himself a most
worthy trustee. Since the fires began
in December he has done little else but
look after school matters.
While naturally he is very much
worried, he is not licked yet. 1t was
stated at the office Of the county su-
perintendent the other afternoon that
Mr.. Brice has plans to start the school
this week in vacant house in the
district. At least one more attempt
will be made to keep the school going.
And while 1t hasn't been stated Of
fcially, in all probability, a guard will
be stationed in that old house o'nights
and when the foul fiend comes with his
fire brand again he'll likely be greeted
with load Of buck shot and consigned
to that bourne from which no traveller
returns and where there Is always a
fire much hotter than any fire Of his
that have consumed the three buildings
where Miller school has been held.

Death Of John C, Allen,

John c. Allen, one of Lincoln
county's aged residents, was colled
to his heavenly home Saturday, Dec.
oath, at 800 a. m. His body was
laid to rest in the family cemetery
beside his wife who had passed over
the river six years ago.
Mr.. Allen had suffered for two
weeks at times intensely, from pneu-
monia and the end to him was well
come.
He was man of wonderful per-
sonality, seventy two years of age,
He had well trained mind and a
strong Christian character. He has
left to them that heritage, the mem
ory of life spent for the good of
others in Gods service. In his pass
ing away we feel a sense of personal
loss, for he proved himself man
whose friendship was worth culti-
waiting; real neighbor in all that
the word implies.
THAT vacant chair will always be
there.
THAT tender voice can never more
be heard"
He leaves to mourn his loss three
sisters, besides FIVE sons and one
daughter. He was a member of the
Macedonia Baptist Church. Rev. w.
S. Rogers preached the funeral which
occurred at his home late Sunday
afternoon.
Sweet be the rest of our dear faith
er and grandfather.

JOHN DIS DAUGHTER
IS GIVEN DIVORCE
Got Her Decree in Just so Min
utes from Time of Filing
Her Petition.

Chicago, Dec. 26.-After a married.
life of 26 years, Mrs. Edith Roel
feller Mccormick, daughter of John
D. Rockefeller, obtained a divorce
from Harold F. Mccormick in what
was said to be record time in Chi
cago courts. Only so minutes elapsed
from the time Ms Mccormick fled
her bill until the decree was signed
by Judge Charles A. Mcdonald.
Mrs. Mccormick appeared in court
at 1880 o'clock and filed her bill,
which tersely charged her husband
with deserting her on May 27, 1918,
in Zurich, Switzerland. A few min
utes later Mr.. McCormick's attor-
neys filed an answer admitting the
charge of desertion and less than
FIVE minutes later the hearing was
started.
Mr.. Mccormick did not appear in
court,
Mrs. Mccormick was asked less
than half a dozen questions by her
attorneys, eliciting the statements
necessary to sustain the bill. She
testified that she was married in
1895, that Mr. Mccormick left her
in Zurich in 1918 without reason and
that he had since failed to provide
for her.
Judge Mccormick signed the de-
cree of divorce at 11:40 o'clock.
The decree did not mention. the
three children of the couple, Harold
F. Mccormick, jr., and Miss Muriel
Mccormick are now living with their
father here, while Mathilde, the Sec
ond daughter, is abroad.
