IN MEMORY

Death has again come into our
midst and taken from our home our
inving father, Andrew j. Webb, or
.etter known as A. }. Webb. He was
he second son of John NJ and Betsy
Webb. being born on Bellstrace. Law
renee county. Ky. on March "a, 1912.
short time afterwards his parents
moved to East Fork to the place now
anOwn as GlenwoOd where he was
reared and lived with his parents until
ut the age of 10 or 20 he was married
to Jane Thompson, daughter of Mar
lin Thompson and wife, and to this
union were born six children, when
he wife and mother was called by the
death angel to pay the debt we all
must pay. His second marriage was
TO Mary C. Childers, daughter of Jo-
,yph and LOuvina Childers of Glen
wood and to this union were born l.
children, making seventeen children
in family, all of whom survive him
Except two sons. He had been in poor
health for a few years and about six
weeks previous to his death he was
Ittacged by pneumonia and at times
seemed to be improving nicely, but
inally after the pneumonia was con-
Vuered he was seized with apopleXy
and gradually grew weaker until on
he afternoon of Sept. % his spirit
took its flight to a better world. Ev-
rything was done that could be done
by wife, children and friends to re-
ieVe his suffering and stay the hand
If death, but God knew best. ....
He told some of the relatives short
" before he died that he was going
home to heaven. His funeral was
preached at his home on Monday.
Sept. 90, by Revs. Cassidy and Hutch
ison. A large crowd had assembled
o pay to him the last tribute If re-
spect here on earth. The casket was
!aden with all kinds of lovely flowers
The Masons and Odd Fellows had
charge of the burial and he was ia
ken to the cemetery back of his home
where the remains were deposited to
await the resurrection morn.
Father gone, but not forgotten,
Never will his memory fade;
Sweetest thoughts shall ever linger
Around the grave where he was laid
We loved him, yes we loved him, !
But the Saviour loved him more
So the angels sweetly called him
To that bright and happy shore.
The golden gates We're opened
gentle voice said Come"
And with farewels unspoken -"
He calmly entered home /
1t was hard to part with father
oh so sad to see him go
But we will try to meet him
Some sweet day on that eternal

A Subject For Debate.

Has a woman a right to make a
fool of herself II a man does? This
would make a good subject for debat-
ing societies. A man will stay around
nights, visit the gambling dens, play
poker and lose money that he ought
to spend for the comfort Of his fam

staying home, sitting by cheerless
fire and taking care of a number of
children. that she has only half in

plays the wheel and drink poor whis-
key, while his wife is home trying to
save money for the family by patch
ing, darning and going without things
for herself and the house. A man at
The same time will go out with the
boys and spend $25. Is II right? Sup
pose we turn the tables around and
his wife commences to play the fool,
for you can call 1t nothing else, and
what will happen? Surprising the wife
takes notion to have n little time Of
her own? Let. her go to the billiard

We know from sad experience that
1t Is very Inconyenient to be poor.
But no man Is poor who is blessed
with n happy home and loving wife
and children. A happy home does not
result from a large income. A large
amount OF love. plenty Of good sense
and very little money will make a
happy home.

Real happiness oftener looks out Of
the window OF humble home than
through the opera glass in the gid

WINTER WEATHER WITH US

Autumn lingering in the lap of win
ter, got her first invitation from the
old man to change her boarding place
when on Tuesday morning the mer-
curry fell to nearly zero in Viroqua
while some surrounding points report
ed temperature of several degrees be
low. But it has been wonderful
autumn, and years will pass before
we see the like of it again, so let US
be thankful for past favors, and hope
that the winter will treat US with the
same consideration.
