In this issue of The Echo | wish to
give honor to my father, the Reverend
E. F. Young, who will have reached
his eightieth birthday on Thursday
April 3, 1947. 1t is to him that
dedicate these remarks.
1t is profound and glorious privi-
lege to have a father who has reach
ed his 80th milestone. Born the sec
ond year after surrender he is still
active, and although he supperannua-
ted several years ago, he frequents
The pulpit on many occasions.
| am happy to know that can meet
him and in my usual manner say,
Papa, how do you do?" Not only
has he meant much to me as father
but we have meant much to each 9TH
r, as father and son.
..4o.s,. his wise council and adj
-ies, Re and ] have worked and strug-
gleG together throughout the years
as only an understanding father and
obedient son can do. Had it not
been for the faith and confidence that
we had in each other, we could not
have done for the race and humanity
what has been done by us. My dear
mother passed to the great beyond in
1918, but papa, as he so affection
ately called by me, is still with us.
My ministerial work and life is
more glorious to me because Of the
fact my father was and is a minister,
No bishop knows what it means to
have a father, who is or was a minis
ter except the bishop whose father is
or was a minister. Father and son
yoked up together in the trenches,
working side by side, is a joy that
only those who have experienced such
ca have. We have worked together
on the same district and in the same
conference for twenty-four years.
The Lord has spared my father to
see me serve as an itinerant minister,
thence to presiding elder and now
in the episcopacy.
The echo., 1947-04-01
To Celebrate Eishtieth Birth a.
A TRIBUTE TO MY FAT Err, REV. / F. YOUNG

Papa, it is to you that l dedicate
these lines. | hope and pray that
the letters, kilograms and cards of
congratulations and whatnot, h t
you may receive on this your eight
ieth birthday, will remind you of the
fact that your son was thinking of
you and has caused others to think
more highly OF you, as my father.
Be it remembered that your son,
R. L., is rejoicing from the depths of
his heart to know that you are still
with us.
This is from your son, his wife, and
their three children who are wishing
for you a continued happy and glori-
Gus life. May God bless and keep
YOU with US for many more years, is
my prayer.

PASSES

The passing of Reverend Mrs. L.

IN FIRE

According to a news release re-
ceived in the office of the Echo, the
home of Reverend C. T. Thompson
was totally destroyed by fire. Rev
erend Thompson lives at Bassfield,
Mississippi.
1t is reported that. the only things
that were saved were a few pieces
that Mrs. Thompson saved by risking
her life in the burning house. l am
sure that Reverend and Mrs. Thomp-
son will be grateful for anything that
is given to them.

FARMS
GIVE YOUR FARM A GOOD
SPRING CLEANING

GIVE your farm a good spring
cleaning" is the advice of County
Agent, F. L. Thames. "a clean farm
is safer and more profitable" he said
and recommended several ways in
which tanners in this area should
participate in the annual Spring
CleaA-Up campaign.
Clean out rags, paper, boxes and
old furniture from your attics, base
ments, barns and other outbuildings",
Agent Thames said. "Chimneys and
flues should be inspectei and cleaned
and dead vines, brush and weeds q.
long fence rows and gem ~'~r~ s~sk
ings should be cut down and burned.
He a s 0 recommended inspecting
tightening rods and cleaning cobwebs
and dust from electric switch boxes
and mp s. Fire extinguishers
shsouldl be installed in buildings that
are not already protected"
Wooden single roofs are always a
hazard and should be replaced with
retardent roof coverings if possible"
Agent Thames said. He also urged
farmers to clean their furnaces and
stoves and to remove all material
which might catch fire from their
vicinity.
"Clean farms seldom burn Agent
Thames said. "Clean farms are also
generally free from disease. A clean
farm is not only safer, but it also
has a healthier atmospher. and is a
nicer place to live"
