This is a time set aside by church organizations and other agencies actively interested in boys and young men to honor the fathers, and at the same time, to make opportunities for the fathers and sons to come together in closer comradeship and mutual apprecia tion. The program for the week’s ob servance includes special services on Sunday in the Sunday School and church services, as well as a number of activities for the week, culminat ing in a banquet or church supper on Friday night for all the fathers and sons in the church. The week’s pro gram will be sent free on request by the State Association office. Organ ized Bible Classes—Young People and Adults —are adopting “Father and Son Week” as a definite form of service which they can render for the building up of Christian ideals in the home and in the church and com munity. President Harding issued a special proclamation last year for the ob servance of “Father and Son Week.” It is being jointly promoted by the International Sunday School Associa tion, through its auxiliary State and provincial Associations throughout the United States and Canada, and the Young Men’s Christian Associa tion. The first “Father and Son” banquet was held by the Y. M. C. A. a number of years ago, when the idea of bringing them together in this way was first originated. Pastors, superintendents and teach ers of adults and young people are urged to observe this week through out Georgia, for the building up of the homes, the churches and the com munities. A SAD DEATH All the people of Barnesville and vicinity were shocked Monday when the news reached them of the sudden and unexpected death of Mrs. B. W. Maulden, which occurred Sunday night at her home in Cairo, Ga. She was the daughter of Mrs. Emma Bar rett of Barnesville and was quite a popular young woman among the people of the city and section, hav ing many relatives in Lamar and Pike counties. Before her marriage she was Miss Roumania Barrett and since her mar riage her home has been in Cairo. She was thirty-one years old. She was prominent in the religious and social circles of her home community and was a young woman who was greatly esteemed among the people who knew her. Her death, which was due to an attack of acute indigestion, has caused great sorrow. The funeral and burial occurred in Cairo Tuesday from the Baptist church, of which she was a member. Mrs. Maulden is survived by her husband, a daughter five years old, her mother, Mrs. Emma Barrett, of Barnesville; a sister, Mrs. Howard Collier, of Barnesville; four broth ers, Clifton Barrett, of Sioux City; Curtis Barrett, of Barnesville; Luther Barrett, of Charleston, and Lloyd Barrett of Sparta; Charles S. Barrett, national president of the Farmers’ Union, a half-brother, and Mrs. R. L. Jolly of Meansville, a half sister, also survive.

Milner died at his home on Thomaston street Friday afternoon about 1:30 o’clock, after an illness of several months, during which he was a great sufferer. While it was known among the people gen erally that he was critically ill and that it was only a question of time when the end would come, the an nouncement of his death came as a surprise to the community, and even his family were not fully expecting it at quite so early a date. Some months ago Mr. Milner be came ill and went to Atlanta to a private sanitarium with the hope of finding relief there but his stay there was short, as the nature of his ill ness was of such character that lit tle hope was entertained of his final recovery. During the entire illness of Mr. Milner he had the constant attention of his family physician, Dr. J. M. Rogers, and the devoted mem bers of the family and friends did everything that it was possible for them to do to make his last days comfortable and happy, all of which he deeply appreciated. Mr. Milner was a genuinely good man. He was as honest as the days were long, sincere and frank in all his dealings with his fellow men, was kind hearted and generous, was one of the old time neighbors, who was constantly doing something to show his neighborliness, he stood for all that was truest and best, having con victions and the courage to stand by them on every occasion. He was a sincere and an earnest Christian, be ing a member of the First Baptist church of Barnesville. He was also a Mason. Mr. Milner was an un usually energetic man and was al ways busy. When he had anything to do he went at it with the purpose to finish the job and when it was fin ished it was done just about as well as it was possible for him to do it. That was his nature and character and it always manifested itself in his conduct. Mr. Milner was a faithful and lov ing husband, an affectionate and gen erous father, an unselfish and true friend and a good citizen and he will be sorely missed among the citizen ship of the city and community. He did much in his quiet way for the poor and the needy and there are many who will sorrow over his going as they remember the kind deeds of the past. Asa business man in the various enterprises in which he en gaged during his life time he estab lished a splendid reputation for fair and courteous dealing and integrity. Mr. Milner was born, reared and lived nearly all his life in this com munity. He was 73 years old. The funeral was held at the First Baptist church Saturday morning at 11 o’clock, Rev. Arthur Jackson of ficiating, and paying a beautiful tribute to the life of the good man, after which the body was interred in the family lot in the Zebulon street cemetery. There were many lovely floral offerings sent in by friends of the deceased and his family. Mr. Milner is survived by his wife, who was a Miss Lunquist, one daugh ter, Mrs. W. L. Hines, who lived with her father and mother, one son, Dr. M. B. Milner of Baltimore, one brother, Mr. J. S. Milner, and one sister, Mrs. J. W. Vaughn, both of this community, to whom the people of the entire community extend deep sympathy over the going of this good man and beloved citizen.
