A Tribute

On December the 25th, 1s43. the Death
Angel crept softly into this home and
claimed for its own their loving mother,
Mrs. Kizzie McNeer. She was one Of the
oldest citizens of our community and to
know her was to love her. She was
seventy y-one years old.
Mrs. McNeer lived in this community
most of her life and had numbered a
host Of friends, ready and willing to
lend helping hand to those in need.
A vacant place is left in this home
which can never be filled. Weep not
dear ones, for we know she is at rest.
She T.as a member of the Pleasant
Riage Baptist Church. was laid to rest
in Bethesda cemetery beneath beau
tiful mound of flowers, laid by those
who were so dear to her.
Left to mourn her passing are hei
children, Mrs. G. R. Smith, Parkdale
Ark; Roy McNeer, West; Mrs. Harvey
Siddon, West; Joe, spinie and Ellen Nc
Neer, Lexington.
Funeral services were conducted by
the Rev. McGee, pastor Of the Metho-
dist Church, Bowling Green, Dec. 26

In addition to the amazing production
record of new ships, Bethlehem yards
also repaired. converted and serviced
over 1000 vessels, thus playing majer
role in keeping our fighting fleets in
trim.
approximately 100000 men and women
were employed BY Bethlehem in It's ship
yards, steel mills and other divisions
TO accomplish this program. But he-
cause the company has set its sights
still higher for 1914 it will be necessary

Your State Health
Officers Says:

Two common abuses Of tho u.e ~
mineral oil have merited comment by
the council of food and nutrition Of
the American Medical Association in the
December issue Of the A..oc;at,on,s
Journal.
The gist Of what the rounc,, ~. "a
say 10 that mineral oil preparations
should not be used as laxative ereept
under medical supervision: also since
mineral oil interferes with the absorb
tien Of certain vitamins by the body.
its indiscriminate use a. . substitute
Tor animal or vegetable oils in foods or
in cooking Is probably outside the in
terest Of good nutrition.
There are conflicting views Recording
the effect Of mineral oi, per se on ~
alimentary tract. Most physicians agree,
however, about the need Of caution in
the use of liquid petrolatum, since the
ease Of obtaining these products may
readily lead to abuse IL they are used
without medical supervision.
The council commented on the fac,
that mineral oil is plentiful, cheap, and
can be sold without ration points. Fo,
this reason imitation mayonnaise and
salad dressing products using mineral
oil are often bought in bulk, and served
in public eating places to a consumer
who is ignorant Of the nature or the
possible harmful effects associated with
the substitution Of liquid petrolatum 70,
vegetable or animal oils.
