Rev. Steed Called As
Pastor of Maysville
Baptist Church.
The members of the Maysville Bap
tist church held a conference at the
close of the Sunday morning service
for the purpose of calling a pastor.
Rev. George C .Steed, a former pas
tor of this church, received a unani
mous call and the church officials are
now awaiting his reply.
During his partorate here Mr. Steed
,was very popular and loved by all de
nominations who, with his own de
nomination, are anxious that he return
to our town, and probably we will know
better how to appreciate him and real
ize more fully what he was worth to
our town as a citizen after giving him
up for awhile. —Maysville News.

On and after September First, we will occupy the original Smith & Carithers Building, corner Broad
and Athens Streets, now used by Messrs. Autry-House & Company. We have a lease on the corner room and
expect to carry a good line of Hardware, Farm Implements, Wagons, Mowers, Hay Rakes, Riding Plows,
Etc. Also we will keep on hand a line of builders’ Hardware, everything that is needed to build a residence,
barn, crib or chicken house. Likewise, we will endeavor to keep a good line of cooking utensils; anything
from a coffee strainer to a high class cook stove; vessels of the several kinds, aluminum, galvanized, enam
eled and the ordinary tin, in fact we try to keep the common things that are used around the home.
We will maintain our Candler Street stores for our building material. There you will find the various
kinds of building material necessary to build anything from a chicken coop to a mansion. Our .Mr. Williams
has had some thirty years’ experience in the building business; his services as an architect or estimator are at
your command—without cost to you. Of course, if wemake a plan and a bill of quantities and can make as
good price as the other fellow, we would naturally expect to get the business.
So, we ask our friends, and everybody else, for that part, to call on us; it will not cost you a cent to see what
we have; it might save you several dollars to take a look at our merchandise.
Do not forget the places—our building material business on Candler Street, next to Mr. A. A. Camp’s
cotton warehouse, our hardware store will be the comer of Broad and Athens Streets, opposite the Granite
Hotel. Our ’phones will be 191 for the hardware department; 88 for the lumber store.
We will appreciate your trade and will show this by giving you the best service that we know how to
render.

IN MEMORY OF LITTLE DANNY
SMITH.
Bom November 21, 1918, Died July
27th, 1921.
“The light of her young life went down,
As sinks behind the hill
The glory of a setting star —
Clear, suddenly and still.
“The blessings of her young life
Fell on us like the dew;
And good thoughts where her footsteps
pressed,
Like fairy blossoms grew.”
Little Danny’s life like a beautiful
song—can never die. To those who are
familiar with her happy disposition, her
sweet baby ways, the familiar rhymtli
of her sweet life will be like the re
frain of some wonderful song, whose
pathos and beauty ever lingers in our
memory.
The little temple in which she lived
has been removed from our midst and,
“There* seems a shadow on the day
Her smile jno oenr cheers JgTrai n,
Her smile no longer cheers;
A dimness on the stars of night
Like eyes that look through tears.”
And, yet, we realize God had need
of this little flower or He would not
have sent, the message, “Come Into
Me.” so soon.
He let us have her for a bud on earth
for some good purpose and now that
her mission is finished, she is a lovely
blossom in Heaven.
Fold her, O Father! in Thine arms,
And let her henceforth be
A message of love between
Our human hearts and Thee.
“AUNTIE.”

This is a public service required of
the jurors that under the law is more
