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.

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. I wish all would read Acts 28:15; Phil. 1:3-5: 2 Cor. 0:12-15; 1 Thess. 3:- 0: Tleb. 13:15; 1 Thess. 1:2; Num. 6 : 24 26.

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.

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. nzsuvs> Winder National Bank WINDER, GEORGI A fi fQom H UOuK The banking army of the country is made up of depositors—and they are all volunteers.
