LONG AIRPORT Jefferson, Georgia IN MEMORY OF GUY W. CROOK Guy William Crook was born on April 29, 1905. He united with Cen ter Grove Baptist Church on August 9, 1918. Asa young Christian, he lived consistently and became a good example for the church people of his generation as he “Abounded in the work of the Lord.” Brother Crook was married to Miss Bertha Dell Holman on April 4, 1926. He and his good wife gave themselves largely to the training union work of the church. Brother Crook took his letter from the Center Grove church on September 3, 1933. He believed it to be his duty to serve his Lord in the community in which he lived. Brother Crook served faithfully and well as Training Union Director of the Chicopee Baptist Church for a number of years. His work was so outstanding in the church until it attracted the attention of the train ing union workers in the churches throughout the Chattahoochee As sociation. There was a unanimous demand on the part of many faith ful workers for the service of Guy William Crook as Associational Di rector of the Training Union work of the Chattahoochee Association. In this capacity he served for a number of years perfecting the best organization and carrying forward the most effective B. T. U. work to be found in any Association in this section of Georgia. He prayed much and worked hard and when on Dec. 20, 1947, the finger of God touched his eyelids into sleep there was a vacant place left in many of our hearts. We thank God for his life of faith ful service and extend to his dear ones our deepest sympathy. We recommend that a copy of this be recorded on the minutes of the church and a copy be sent to the family and one to the Jackson Herald. O. C. PERRY, DEE MARLOWE, W. L. RAGAN, Committee. In Memoriam In loving memory of our beloved husband and father, Mr. Daniel B. Mathis, who passed away one year ago today, June 13th. More and more each day we miss you and sweet memories linger with the ones you left at home. There is a day of sunny rest, For every dark and troubled night And grief may bide an evening guest, But joy shall come with morning light. God hath marked each sorrowing day, And numbered every secret tear, And Heaven’s long age of bliss, Shall pay for all his children suffer here. —Mrs. Daniel B. Mathis and Children. The Jackson Herald, Jefferson, Georgia ! SELF SACRIFICE OF WORTHY NEGRO FAMILY REWARDED (Atlanta Journal) ATLANTA, Ga —An elderly Ne gro couple sat through the Spelman college commencement exercises Monday with tears of pride in their eyes. They saw their sixth and last daughter graduated with honors as president of her class. Her diploma marked the end of a near-lifetime job of hard work and self-sacrifice on the part of the man and his wife to educate six children. The proud parents were John Wesley Dobbs and his wife. The last of their six honor graduates was their youngest daughter, June. John Wesley Dobbs is now 66. He was born in the shadow of Kenne saw mountain. He worked his way through Morehouse college and went to work as a, railway mail clerk. He was married, then came the children—all girls. His small salary as a railway mail clerk was not enough to give his girls the education he thought they needed. He took on other jobs in his off hours. By depriving them selves, the elder Dobbses managed to save a little each week for their children. Irene was the first to graduate from Spelman. She took her degree with honors and then went on to do graduate work. She is now the wife of a minister. Then came Willie, Milicent, Jose phine and Mattiwilda. All graduated with honors. Some were valedictorians of their classes. Others were class officer^. Like theii* eldest sister, all those who followed went on to do grad uate work. Three took graduate de grees from Columbia university. On eof them was Mattiwilda, who received her degree there last week. She is studying voice. All but the last two are married. Three are teaching. Another is the wife of a successful insurance man. June, too, plans to do graduate work, and she may follow her sis ters in the teaching profession. The parents have lived almost all their lives in Atlanta, and they are leaders of the city’s Negro com munity. The husband has been grand master of the Prince Hall Masonic grand lodge of Georgia since 1932. He retired from the rail way mail service some 15 years ago, and since that time has worked for the grand lodge. All of the daughters sat with their parents at Monday’s exercises. There were some prideful tears in their eyes too, for when the honors were announced, little June the baby—had upheld the family tra dition.

HELPS JUVENILE APPETITE Children are likely to be in more of a mood to eat supper if you in terest them in quiet play for the half hour preceding supper. Making a doll bed, fitting together a puz zle or rearranging doll house furni turee are typical relaxing activities that will get Junior and his sister ready for quiet eating. In addition to use as a shoe lin ing, cotton cloth is widely used in the shoe industry for backing thin leathers for extra strength.
