IN MEMORY.
Death has again invaded our ranks
and taken from us our beloved
brother, I). F. Kellum. He de
parted this life June 27, 1901). Hu
was about forty-eight years of age.
He leaves a wife, several children
and many relatives to mourn his
death. Mr. Kellum had been sick
for some'time and was a great suf
ferer, [but bore his affliction at all
times with patience. He was a
gentleman firm in his convictions,
hut ever re-*dv to yield when shown
he was wrong. He was a good hus
bandjand father, hard working and
hmest, and generous to his neigh
bors and friends. He was a mem
ber of (iiles Lodge 1. O. (). F. No.
;>t>2, being a. charter member of
*
this lodge. He believed in its prin
ciple-, and sought to put them in
practice and wanted its influence
to spread thatjthe order might l>c a
blessing to others.
While he is gone, the life he lived
and the deeds he did as an Odd
Fellow will ever bring bis memory
afresh to the lodge.
To his family and friends we will
say be consoled with the thought
that he is at rest with the pure and
good, where sorrow and death can
never enter, and by and by some
day *you may he a reunited family
around God’s throne never to be
separated again. Oh how sweet it
then will be.
Be it resolved, That Giles Lodge
No. 862, I. O. ()• F., extend to
Mrs. Kelluin and children our
most earnest nndjdeepcst sympathy
in the hour of sorrow and sadness.
Resolved 2, That a copy of these
resolutions he spread on our min
utes and be kept in the lodge and a
copy be sent to the bereaved family.
Resolved 8, That a copy be fur
nished The Winder News for publi
cation .

KEPT HER WORD.
(From the*Chicago Tribune.)
Harold,’’said the young woman,
resolutely, “Ifpromised my mother
I never would marry any man
without asking him how he stood
on the great question of woman
suffrage. You will have to tell me
how y<l\i stand.”
“I’m oposed to it, Bella,” bluntly
answered the young man.
“Well —we —that’s all l promised
mama.; I didn’t hind myself to re
fuse any good man just because
he —now, |Harold, you stop that?”
The Way.
A Clay Center mother was in the
house of a neighbor, visiting. The
child was out in the yard with sev
eral others, playing.
“Ruth, Ruth, are you there?”
called the mother.
“No, mamma, not now,” an
swered the child.
“Well when you do come,” re
plied the mother, “let me know
right away, for we must go home
before dark.”
The visiting went right on; the
playing went right on; just as if
there had been no interruption. In
fact there had been none. This is
an actual occurrence. —Kansas City
Journal.
Method of Eradicating the Wild Onion.
The office of farm management,
United States department of agri
culture, has now ready for distribu
tion a circular giving a detailed dis
cussion of the wild onion problem
and outlining a plan whereby the
pest ean be exterminated. This
jeircular will be -'-nt free to any
person requesting it.
It takes a woman to learn from a
man things that he doesn't know.
PARADISE.
Gee Whiz! I don’t know who
is visiting here and who is not. All
seem to be having a good time.
Whatever else may hetide this
season, there is one thing para
mount in our oudesire, and that
is that the summer may never
pass or the harvest may never
end until all those who tread
the downward way may he hous< and
most gloriously ’neath the all shel
tering arms of Him who paid the
price of their redemption on. Cal
vary. Let preachers and doctors ev
erywhere feel and know that we are
with them in their sympathy and
prayers.
We are having much rain here.
The showers are not general. Crops
where they have been worked are
good, and while food products are
rising to the high water mark, cot
ton climbers some, too, in prices.
Some have sold for future delivery
at 12c, and more a part of what
they expect to make.
When our northern friend makes
his visit we would be glad for him
to tell us how he comes out. Hope
the South Georgia woman will not
get the upper hand of him, but the
writer considers that the men are
as had as the women in some cor
ners of the south.

More Farmers Needed.
While the cities of the land are
swarming with the unemployed,
many of whom are despondent, thus
daily becoming more worthless for
themselves and the community,
there is a sad lack of farmers and
farm labor in all pajts of the coun
try. Owners cannot procure men
to do farm or field work, and even
immigrants from agricultural dis
tricts prefer to stay in the cities.
The scarcity of agricultural labor,
due to the rush cityward, is the
chief reason that food prices are
going up, and cotton prices will fol
low food prices. Population is out
growing production the world round,
and unless the drift of American
boys to the cities can he stayed it
will go on until a hungry and naked
world calls for a general remedy.
The one true way to keep the l>oys
on the farm consists in making agri
culture profitable and attractive.
The rural free delivery, the tele
phone, and in some states the trol
ley, are making rural life less mo
notonous and higher prices for farm
products are making it more profita
ble. Farm life is looking up. It
is losing its former isolation and
low earnings. An increase in all
agricultural districts of educational
facilities will also prove helpful- Ml
in all, the prosperity of the farmer
is more assured than it, has been at
any time since the Civil War.
Just now the Southern farmers
feel the high prices of food articles,
but no Southern farmer should buy
meats or grain from the Northwest
or anywhere else- Food supplies
should be produced at home. This
is what the land and the moisture
and the sunshine are good for, and
the man who grows cotton to the
neglect of food products should not
grumble over food prices.
The South should grow its own
food supplies, thus turning cotton
into a net pash crop. This of itself
would make the Southern farm
profitable, and when a farm is profit
able it is not difficult to keep some
of the hoys at home. —People’s
Advocate.
Flaying Safe.
“So you don't guide hunting
parties any more?”
“Nope,” said the guide, “Got
| tired of being mistook fer a deer”
“How do you earn a living now?”
“Guide fishin’ parties. So fer,
i nobody ain’t mistook me fer a
fish.”
