In Memory
Of little Mary Lewis, the 11 months
old daughter ot Mr. and Mrs. W. (>.
Beck, who died June 11, lillt!.
She was bright and beautiful—a
pet with all who knew her. Dol
ing her short stay, in which she
lmd completely entwined herself
around our heirt«, we enjoyed the
precious little gift. Her existence
seemed necessary to our own. She
always had a smile for everybody,
and was the iite of the home. It
is very lonely witln ut her. (iod
has taught ns by afflictions what
we would not learn by mercies,
that our hearts are His property.
Father, mother, brother, sister,
you cannot afford to miss heaven
now. In our imagination we can
see Mary Lewis v\ niching and wait
ing for you. May God sustain
hem in their bereavement.
Our father always calls
His lovrd ones to sweet rest;
ihough our hearts be filled with anguish,
Will say He knoweth best.
Thou hast plucked our (1 >wer fair,
Thou needest M iry Lewi* iu paradise—
She will bloom in ire sweetly then-.
Grand Mother Purhlky.
Card of Thanks.
We desire to express our sin
cere thanks to the many friends
for numerous attentions, sweet
expressions of sympathy, with
beautiful and lov *iy floral offer
ings during the illness and death
of our dear husband and father.
Much comfort and solace have
they given through this, the dark
est, saddest and most trying ex
perience of our lives. May God’s
richest blessings rest with each
one of you.
Mis J. T. Sowell,
Bessie Sowell.

G ivernor Harris is on the right
line now and we hope he will
convince the legislature to his
way of thinking. He is going to
recommend the handling locally
of a great deal of purely local leg
islation, so that it will not take up
the time of the legislature to the
end that biennial sessions of the
assembly may be substituted
for • nrual sessions.—Darien Ga
