CARD OF THANKS
I wish to thank those who minister
*d to us during the sickness and dentil
of our dear husband and father, Mr.
Weymnn I*. Harrison. We especially
■wish to thank Miss Berta Meadows. Dr.
E. It Harris, and the kind neighbors

CARD OF THANKS
"Count your Blessings.”
Someone has said: “There’s noth
ing so kingly as kindness, and nothing
so royal ns truth.”
If the word queenly be inserted in
Ihe above couplet, then the word truth
will help characterize the spirits of
Hod’s men and women who “came unto
me” in my recent illness.
Thirty-two dear brethren, sisters, and
neighbors, representing all denomina
tions and the lodges of Master and Roy
al Arch masons, blessed me with sixty
two visits during the ten days of my
painful “shut-in,” bringing with them
every help and comfort they could
think needful, while others who could
not come, sent me many tokens of their
kindly sympathy.

John Hill, Roy Jackson, W. J. Russell,
as well as ex-Pnstor Faust of Atlanta ;
are a few of tin* visitors, nil of whom I
gratefully remember. 1 haven’t space
for every dear name.
My tongue seems too feeble, my hand
too faltering, and my heart too weighty
with grateful emotions, even to at
tempt an adequate expression of my
abounding gratitude, both to the nam
ed and the unnamed in this card, for
their manifold expressions of kindness
to me. I can only say, thanks to. and
perennial blessings be upon every one
ef them.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF MRS. ED
NA MoELKOY, WIIO DEPARTED
THIS LIFE DECEMBER 24T11, 1922.
Whereas. God saw fit to take away
from us one of our most beloved friend
and sister, kind physician, fond parents
and hundreds of warm friends did all
they could to stay the hand of death,
but all in vain. God knew best. He
alone could relieve her sufferings.
i The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh,
blessed he the name of the Lord.
Dear aunt Edna, was a true and lov
>ing friend to everybody; a loving moth
er and a devoted wife. Oh how it
wrung our hearts to have to part from
this dear aunt. It was so sad to look
on her beautiful face the last time, but
we knew she wasn't dead, only sleeping
in the arms of Jesus.
How sweet the thought that ts all
tired weary pilgrims who loved Christ
and awaited his glorious appearing,
this noble aunt fell asleep like a tired
child in the midst of its toys, to awak
en in His likeness; to tie satisfied in
liis presence forevermore.
She was the oldest child of Mr. and
Mrs. PL V. liardigree of Barrow coun
ty, Die most beloved Christian people.
She married Mr. Muller McElroy
fourteen years ago. She gave her tin
der heart to Jesus and united with the
Chapel Christian church. Her beautiful
Christian character the worshippers in
the church to which she belonged, in
the community in which she lived was
inspiration and joy.
She as like sunshine after a passing
cloud; she was a regular attendant
and rendered great aid in the service
of songs, delighting to blend her soft,
sweet voice with the other voices that
the most rapture and sterling music
might lie dispensed in the service.
Dear Aunt Edna was a Christian
woman, as much as we knew her and
as such we shall miss her.
We feel that Chapel Christian church
has lost one of Its truest members.
A precious one from us is gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in her church,
Which never can be filled.
She is survived by her husband, Mul
ler McElroy, and one child, little Doriee
McElroy who will miss her loving and
tender care.
Her parents Mr. and Mrs. E. V. Har
digree and three brothers, Elis liardi
gree, Herschel liardigree and Wester
iiardigree and one sister, Mrs. Edwin
Giles, and many other relatives sur
vive her.
Her Neices, Emma and Carr McElroy

The Way to Save
—is to begin saving-there is no other way.
Nobody is going to come along with some
patent device which will endow us with a
nice balance over-night.
Nobody else indeed, can save for us.
But, once we establish the saving habit in
ourselves, that will be our line of least re
sistance, and saving will be natural—and
easy.

The banking army of the country is made up of depositors—and
they are all volunteers. As an army of soldiers fights with firearms to
protect the liberties of the country, the army of bank depositors Ls
fighting with dollars to preserve the business fabric of the nation.
The larger and the stronger the army the more sure we are of good
business conditions, and that is one reason why bankers urge all to be
come bank depositors.
There is no coercion about it, but it is a patriotic duty.
