coming to Belfast about ten years ago
she had made many friends as she was
associated with her husband in the res
taurant business and met the public. For
some time she had been member of the

but did make it plain that it was a genu-
inc pleasure for 81 men to give to one
man a souvenir of their regards and high
esteem. Seeing that Mr.. Frost was COM
pletely surprised and too much affected
for ready response he called for three
cheers to make the presentation more
binding. Then he said: "Now Mr. Frost
has one of the best wives in the city, let
US give her three cheers"

and had proceeded the presentation with

best environment and education that
money could buy Compared with such
substantial seeming advantages, the
value of religious training and habit
seemed small enough. Nowhere on all
the sea of their lives appeared hint of
danger. But the mariners art had not
been taught them. They had been given
no course on the high seas of the soul,
provided with no chart. When the third
one, terrified by the discovery of his own
want and weakness, had taken his own
life, friend who had not heard the sad
tidings, asked of his father: "Where is
Frank; how is he getting on2"
Gone to hell like the rest" was the
piteous reply.
Probably he was mistaken. But for
the opportunities and service of this
world, the words were too true. We. ct
least lay the foundations of our own
heaven and hell in this world. The trsg-
edy lay in the fact that it was largely, if
not wholly, unnecessary. "He that find

Odd Fellowship's 1O3rd Ami
VerSary-.

The members of Waldo Lodge, l. o. o.
F., Canton Pallas and Aurora Rebek all
Lodge united in celebrating the l03rd an
niversary of the founding of the order by
attending the morning worship at the
First Baptist church last Sunday in
body. The delegation mum mbered about
one hundred and, with the congregation,
filled the church. The fine appearance
of the several bodies in regalia and uni
form, their hearty participatio in the
service gave to the exercises an added
note of interest and enthusiasm. The
church was arrayed with the banners and
flags of the order and with potted plants.
The pastor, Rev. George C. Sauer, gave
the address. In welcoming the visiting
orders he said: "Odd Fellowship cher
ishes some of the most beautiful portions
of Holy Writ, the story of the rare friend
snip of David and Jon than, the story of
the ministry of mercy upon the man by the
wayside, naked and half dead by the noble
Samaritan, and the story of the lovely,
mPuisiNc, courageous NcDckan, tnc DIluc
of Isaac. These cherished stories exempli-
fly the principles of friendship, love and
truth, upon which the order is founded.
For 1903 years Odd Fellowship has been
laboring and with ever increasing sue
cess, by its impressive ritual, its works
of benevolence and charity, its numerous
homes for the aged of the order, and for
orphaned children, to keep alive and
! meaningful these sacred stories of friend
ship, brotherly love and huma nifty. And
it is indeed great encouragement and
comfort to all right minded people to
! know that in these days of wide unrest
and confusion, when many by the cruel
combination of circumstances have been
left stripped by the wayside, wounded
and half dead, there is this great frater-
nifty with it's millions of members made
sensitive by it's ritual and work to mis-
fortune and pain, busily at work in far
reaching labors of brotherly kindness and
mercy in behalf of the unfortunate and
the distressed.

LUCY MARSHALL COOMBS

On the morning of April 18th, at the
old homestead in Islesboro where she had
spent all her life, Lucy A., daughter of
Samuel and Jane Marshall and widow of
Capt Wilson Coombs, passed from earth
to the great beyond in restful slumber, at
the advanced age of 88 years. She was the
last of large family, born in Islesboro
and all those long years were spent in the
immediate neighborhood. OF family of
eight children, four survive her, her hus-
band having preceded her some six years
ago. These children are Fred W, Leigh
ton W, A Perry, and Mrs. Nellie E.
Coombs, all of Islesboro. In early girl
hood Mrs Coombs became a member of
the Baptist church and all throughout
her life she was most devoted to that
church and a constant attendant whe
health permitted. She was a woman of
wonderful principles, one whose life was
devoted to her family and the church.
Always foremost in her mind was the
thought of home and children and none
was a more devoted mother than she. In
these last days the family have been in
| turn ready to sacrifice anything for the
mother. She was one of those old fash
/ Toned New England women of sweet
nature, of the stock which first graced
the shores of New England. The funeral
was from the late home in Islesboro on
the following Thursday from the home of
her son, A. Perry Coombs, with whom
! The iDterment was made there in the
family lot, Rev. Llewellyn officiating
with CHEEKY smile and a wave of her
hand, she has wandered into an unknown
land. She is not dead-she is Just away"
