Mr.. G. S. Harris, of West Point,
Miss, ever keeps the News force in
mind. 1t was in this Office he spent
twenty years of his life and when any
thing out of the ordinary. comes his
way, he remembers the old days, many
fraught with hardships and many that
brought much happiness to every one
connected with the Office. For the
cluster of beautiful cream colored
roses which grew in his yard and
where many more are growing and
blooming, we, one and all, return our
grateful thanks. The ones sent to
this Office were in evidence last Friday
night at series of meetings now in
progress at the Methodist church.

Best In The State.

A member and an officer of the To-

Adair county, has examined the new
receiving house. He stated that he
had seen all the houses in Kentucky,
but taking the size into consideration
he stated that the one in Columbia
was the best built in the State. This

1 know your hearts are sad because
of the going away of your dear little
son and brother. r. V. Bennett, Jr.,
but since he has gone to better
country and is saved to all eternity
where he shall always be we'll and nev-
er have a pain, and not one wave Of
trouble shall ever roll across his peace
full breast; and his associations are the
very best. He is with God and an
gels and with all Who have
died in faith and crossed over to the
Canaan land. His associations are
the best to be found in all the uni
verse, and his opportunities for deVel.
Opment are all that could be desired.
Let me say to you do not grleve un-
duly Casting all your care upon
Him; for He careth for you" Say,
though with sad hearU, ''Thy will be
done!" Remember that you can
meet him again and spend a blessed
eternity with him. Out of a heart of
love and sympathy for you 1 wish to
dedicate the following lines written in
verse to you all, and hope they may,
through divine grace, bring some COM
fort to your bleeding hearts.
Z Yours in Christian sympathy,
]. l.. Murrell.
Our precious son and brother dear,
Has gone where he shall have good
cheer:
He there shall never know pain,
And death shall never come again.
No want shall ever reach that shore,
But all good LniDgs forevermore;
His mind snail there be clear and
strong,
His heart be true and always warm.
More like his God forever grow,
AS He His grace on him bestows;
Happy, yea happy in His will,
God with Himself his being fill
And on, and on, shall wiser grow,
And larger joys to him shall flow;
What bliss is his we cannot tell.
He there with Cod shall ever dwell.
o think of him in such a home,
And strive at once to cease to mur
mur.
Rejoice that you can meet him there,
And with the Lord heavens bliss tc
share.
Our dear sweet one we give thee up,
Though still from sorrows cup we sup
Wen try to put our grief away,
And hope to meet you some sweet da!
And live forever with our Lord,
His holy name with thee to Iaud,
And while the endless years shall roll
Well rest in peace that can't be told

hind those of last year. the total fig

House by Delegate Murphy, Dorches-

taries Committee. Some oystermen
favored their use, while others pro-
tested against them as being harmful

cretion of the Librarian, however. to
refuse this privilege to any whom she
may deem too young or otherwise in
capable of properly using it,
(3) Books borrowed may be kept
out for a period not exceeding two
