MRS. MARY POND CARPENTER

CONTINUED frOm page One)
the hospitality, cordiality and gener-
osity of Mr.. and Mrs. Carpenter was
unlimited. A few years ago they
went to Los Angeles, where they
built beautiful home, and after a
trip to Japan and China returned to
California where their home became
a Mecca for friends far and near.
Their consideration was not for per-
sonal friends alone, but extended to
the humble and the unfortunate,
outside. Many a struggling student
was aided, many were the helps to
the sick and ailing that they sc
kindly and SO modestly gave. In
conducting the routine and details
of his business, Mrs. Carpenter was
! her husbands trusted, capable help
and advisor.
In January of 1925, Mr.. Car
penter's death occurred. Since Their
| Mrs. Carpenter had given her time
and business talent and considera-
ton to administering the affairs of
her husbands estate, and to church
and benevolent work. She gave
largely of her time to church and
missionary interests, both foreign
and home. She was active in her
club and was scrupulous in all her
social obligations, but being a mem
Der OF the board of trustees of the
Jane Couch Home in Los Angeles,
she devoted herhelf faithfully to its
interests and development. She
was highly cultured, and in the
years prior to her marriage she
gave much of her evenings to the
study of the languages, and read to
keep abreast in thought and study
with the foremost thinkers of the
day. Her appreciation of the hu-
morous, her gift for quoting what
she had read and heard. her ability
to analyZe a situation or a problem,
her love and understanding of fine
music, her quick wit, all added to
her kindliness, her generous spirit
to every acquaintance, all endeared
her to everyone and marked her as
supreme among women.
AS We look back over the years
of friendship and endeavor to select
the trait of character that was most
pronounced, we find it to be her
depp religious faith. She united
with the Malta M. E. church when
a little girl nine years old. She
experienced religion" in the real
old-fasfioned sense of that term,
and her faith never wavered. d, She
once said to the writer, mo matter
what experiences ] have been called
upon to go through, have always
believed God would take care OF
