Remarkable life COMES TO CLOSE, A life, remarkable in many in stances, came to a close last Fri day when Mrs. Leaoy William son, one of the oldest and most, highly respected ladies in this section of the state, died at the li .me of her daughter, Mrs. Cor bin, neat Oakpark. She had reached the advanced age of 03 y ars, and the greater part of her life was spent m the portion of Montgomery that is now em braced in Toombs. Her husband, Hon. Andrew Williamson, preceded her to the grave about two years ago. They were the oldest couple, perhaps, that ever lived in this section, Mr. Williamson having reached the ripe age of 94 years before being called to bis reward. They had been married seventy-two years at the tune of his death. Mr. and Mrs. Williamson rear ed a family of sixteen children to toe age of maturity, and they are now prominent citizens of r J .ombs, Emanuel and Mont gomery counties. A great many grand children and great grand children are 1 •*ft to mourn their d part are. Mr. Williamson, many years ago, represented Montgomery county in the Georgia Legisla ture, and was cue of the most prominent men of the county. Mrs. Williamson was honored and respected by all who knew her, and a devoted Christain. “Aunt Leaoy,” as she was generally called, will be missed by a host of friends, for her beautiful Christian life was an inspiration to all with whom she came m contact. She was pre pared for the great change, and while we bow our heads in sor row at her departure, yet we do not mourn as for those who have no hope of a better life in the great beyond. We extend sympathy to the bereaved ones, whose hearts are made sad death, and point them to her Christian life as being worthy of emulation.— Toombs County Local.

A CHRISTMAS PARTY FOR BOYS ANO GIRLS. “Thd Original entertainment was given by a Sunday-school teacher to her class of boys and girls,” says Alice P. Robinson in Woman's Home Companion for December, “and was intended to instruct as well us amuse. The children were old enough to have some idea of geography.. “Soon after the children reach ed the teacher’s home, she con ducted them into a room dero gated to represent Norway. Here they were greeted m a most cor dial manner by a maiden dtessed in the costume of Norway, who told them the story of Christmas in that land, which is called Yulepeace instead of Christmas, and is celebrated by feasting, and all quarrels are made up. She spoke of the preparation made by the mothers, the way the gifts are distributed from the trees, how the birds are remembered with hunches of wheat placed outside the window on poles, that all animals are given extra por tions of supper, and how strangers are treated on Yule-peace day. After tlie story, little girls in the native costumes ol Norway ap peared form behind tile pint* trees with trays of dainty sandwiches “Then they went into another room where dainty articles from Holland were displayed in a very artistic manner. After u hearty welcome from a maiden in the typical Dutch costume, some time was spent looking at the pretty things before she began the story of how the Dutch people keep Christmas —as a holy day. Among other things she told them that the Dutch children think Santa Claus comes driving a white horse instead of deer, and’ they clean their wooden shoes and fill them with hay and oats for the white horse. Here ice cream was served in little wooden shoes with (lugs of tJie country stuck in them like sails. “They next visited Denmark. Here was a pretty Christmas tree with dainty gifts for each one. A young lady in the native dress told how Christmas is celebrated there. “Then they went to a pretty room decorated with American flags and bright holly wreaths and other greens—that was America. Here they had u merry time eating nuts and fruits and playing games.” Damon Dots. The Damons held a most in teresting meeting in the chapel Saturday afternoon, last.
