THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TIME5-RECORDER DECEMBER 15. 1910
BURIAL OF MRS. EDDY
NOT MARKED BY GRIEF.
Simplicity'Marks Funeral of
[Noted Woman.
Boston. December 9.—'Th*> followers
of Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy, the
founder of the Christian Science
church, parted with ti?r visible form
at a funeral that was marked with
impp'dclty and lack of osteusation that
yielded no expressions of sorrow, r:
IcaFt not by -her followers.
Clifford P. Smith, first reader of the
brother Church', read the greater part
cf lire service, .prepared by himself,
consisting of selections from the Bible,
co-relative passages from Mrs. Eddy’s
hr ok. "Sciences and Health." and n
•prayer.
He was assisted by Mrs. Carol Hoyt
Powers, the aecoml render, who ren
dered Mrs. Eddy’s poem, "A Mpther’s
Evening Prayer,” with sweet and ten
der expression. The service lasted
only eighteen minutes.
There was no eulogy, no sobbing ex
cept by the young granddaughter, Mary
Baker Glover.
Those who wished to look for the
Saat time on the face of the leader
saw the small, delicate face of a wo
man who looted sixty, instead of
minery, and wfcose expression was sin
gularly peaceful and showed no «lgn
of suffering.
Eighteen carriages followed the
hearse to Mount Auburn cemetery In
Watertown.
HOTEL HAS
A
ESCAPE.
Bad Blaze In Screven House
at Savannah.
Fire Started at 3:30 0’CIock Yester
day Morning But Was Finally Sub
dued Without Loss of Life and
Small Damage to Hotel.
Savannah. Ga., December 9.—Fire
that started In the basement of the
iScteven House was- discovered at
•V2j o’clock this morning and before
the arrival of -the Are department .a
response to an alarm from box SI
smoke was Issuing in great volumes
from the hotel.
It appeared as If the hotel was in
danger of being destroyed by Are and
t-vo .patrolmen with tin assistance of
bell boys aroused the sleeping guests.
Some of them had already been wak
ened by the smoke.
In their night clothes both men and
women made their way to the hotel!
oAlce, or to ttie parlor Boot.
The patrolmen -were blinded by j
smoke in their efforts to wake the
guests of til ehouse, and the conse
quences would probably have been se
rious had not the firemen conquered
the Aames as quickly as they did.

GOV. HOKE SMITH WILL
GIVE SIX MONTHS
Thinks Governors Should Go
In in January.
Atlanta, Decembe 9.—In order that
future governor* of Georgia may enter
upon their term of office on the first
of the year, Gov.-elect Hoke Smith
will recommend to the legislature next
summer that six months be lopped off
his term of two years, so that
successor can be Inaugurated January
1st.
The governor-elect is strongly
the opinion that the interim between
the election In October and the inau
guration of the chief executive the fol
lowing June is too long and should
be reduced at least six months. There
are several reasons advanced by Gov
Smith which make this change nec
essary.
Among them are the following:
First. The man elected as governor
does not serve for eight months sfter
his election and in the meantime there
are two men who are treated on prac
tically the same plane a3 governor.
Second. The inauguration in June
breaks right into the middle of the
year’s work. The fiscal years should
be from January to January, thus end
ing with the calendar year. At the
present the new governor takes hold
of his duties right in th emiddle of the
tax collecting period and i s absolut
ly tat sea regarding the financial su
ms of the state.
Third. The new governor should go

The reports as to the result of
hearing before the railroad commis
sion on Wednesday, relative to
change of schedule on train? 7 and
of the Central, appears to have result-
ed in a decision to change the schedule
so tlut tie train will leave Albany at
5:20 In the morning, reaching Amer
icas about 6:30. This will enable the
train to make elate connection
l?m-lthvjl!a with the -train- for Mont
-gomery, and also make Important con
nectlona at Macon.
Returning the train will reach
Amerlcus about 9 o'clock and close its
run at Albany at 10 o’clock.
This change will probably prove
satisfactory to the Amerlcus merch
ants. although naturilly it would hav
been preferred to have the train reach
here later In the morning. How ev
it i3 believed the new schedule will
result in bringing back to Amerlcus
some of the trade to the south that
was -lost by the former change
schedule.

We men,” said a wise friend the

ought to be allowed to conduct her
household on business principles sim

in his office or on his farm. The sue
ceasful -merchant or farmer is alwav
ca -efull to keep in touch' with the lat

adopt the changes suggested. Yet -this
very concentration sometimes makes
him overlook the necessity of provid

only so can she In her domestic sphere

It Is Just this need that the Stand

of cx|>erience and costly -labor, bat
that It has been successful seems
proved by the favorable opinions of
this -heater expressed wherever It has
been tried. Even in foreign countries
its usefulness an convenience have
gained full acknowledgement, and in
