THE NEWNAN HERALD, NEWNAN, GA.. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1921. OBITUARY. It. is sad for mo to write n sliotiili of tho life of Mrs. Judson Harris, wo wore such good friends. I laid known iier from our girlhood. During tho Civil War we mot. unit visited n little, At that tlmo Mr. Jus. Dodds, lior futlior, lived in Newium. She was born thuro Aug. 20, I860, grew up there, and grad uated at College Temple. After hor lour- riugo in tho early 70's we drifted apart, and t saw no more of hor until we moved to Turin in December, 1885. Thou she boe.amo my non rest' neighbor, and we. ro- itiumed congenial frionds until her death, whloh occurred Aug. 1, 11)21. Wo visit- oil and woro associated together in ninny ways for nearly 36 ycarB, with nuvor an unkind word spoken between us, nor disturbance of any kind in our dealings. 1 folt that I knew hor perfectly, and sup- linso she felt tho same way toward mo. Wo visited often ns long ns silo and 1 were able to walk back and forth, and this pleasant intercourse continued even nftot having to bo curried. Sho fre quently enmo down the street and would stop at my window, and we would chat awliilo. Then t would persuado her to come in nnd spend the time with mo. To say tllo least of it., we woro so close ly connVictod in many waVs tlint the whole family seems very near to mo. I could write much of our mutual pleasures if space would permit. She was one of tho charter members of iny Bible class, which' was organised Aug. 24, 1011. Sho was a good reader, and rear! hor Biblu constantly. We car ried on Bible study on Thursday of eoeli wook for seven years. Thou wo hold up for awliilo and worked for tho lied Gross, and sho was a faithful work er thoro. After tho war closed we came together again ns a Bible class nrtd wont on till Christmas. She nnd I spoke of beginning again this year, but her health was not good. Sho enmo down and asked >ne to look in tho Biblo and sco if she ■ could repeat the 14th chapter of St. John. I did so, nnd she repented it from beginning to ond. I think it won derful for hor to have memorized so long n chapter at her ago, She told mo sho had read the Bible through aovcrnl times, besides doing other religious reading. Mrs. Harris was always thankful for any favor or kindness shown hor by frionds. With hor, appreciation nnd gratitudo were linked together, and should bo received ns a token of love. Sho spoke sweetly of hor boys still at homo with hor, and said ns long as they loinnliind sho rvoulik not break up nnd leave them. Sho joined the Baptist church beforo her marriage. Later in lifo sho joined tho Presbyterian church with hor hus band. Sho was cheerful, nnd hor face bospoko happinosB. For some ..tlmo be fore hor departure she was unnblo lo got out to ckurch often. Sho was hap pily disposed, religiously inclined, cheer ful in disposition, mid kind-hearted. As a Christian she was humble, as a wife devoted, ns a mother affectionate, ns a neighbor considerate nnd generous. Na turally of a bright disposition, she made hor homo a place where her frionds found it n pleasure to visit. Those who know her longest nhd beat esteemed hor highest. A devoted husband, six sorrowing chil dren nnd a host of frionds mourn her departure. There is n silence in tho homo which they know nothing of'before. Her daughter said to mo, “Wo didn’t l-enl- iro mamma was growing old, ’ ’ Sho was so cheerful nhd the years passed over her so gently, they couldn't realize her ago, but her mind was not Impaired by 1 iiiia i - her heart never grow old. Wo console ourselves with the thought tlint “The Lord doeth all things well.” The large eoiieourso of frionds who came from far nnd near to show their affection mill sympathy, testitiinl to the esteem in which she was held by those who knew her. But unto nil our hearts there must oomo ■some dark nud sorrow- ‘ ful days. 1 am thankful she was spared to her family- so long. “All have somo sorrow, somo grief to bear. Knrtb hath no eup of joy uuiui.xtd with care.” A. P. 0. Turin, Ga., Nov. 19th. — 1 7—» ___ ' OBITUARY. " The Lord, in His wisdom, has seen lit to tako from us our dear rolatlvo anil frlond, Uncle Loandor R. Banks. Ho was borii May 8, 1842, and his spirit, took its flight Sept. 8, 1921. Ho was mar ried to Miss Frances M. Cnrinical in March, 18(10, and they lived happily to gether until her dentil. Four children wore born to this union, of whom tho eldest, a noble son, preceded him to tho grave 12 years ago. Ho served four years in the Civil War, olid it 1ms been said of him that a truor or bravor soldier never lived. Ho was a faithful member of tho Methodist church until death claimed him. He served one term as Tax Collector of Coweta county, and n more honest or faithful offielnl the county never honored. During his incumbency in his office ho often paid some poor mini’s or poor widow’s taxos out of his own poeket. He was n public-spirited citizen, ami always glad to help In any movement tlint had for its object tho up building of his county—especially along religious and educational’ lines. He wna-n devoted husband, n kind and affeetioimte father, and a friend to all. Lot us not think of him us being gone from us, but only waiting on tlio utlior shore. We should strive daily to emu late his cheerful, honest, Christian lifo, and bo prepared to join him where ho is in communion with our Heavenly Fa ther “over there.” Fannie Sue Doiicgiin Raymond, Go. WHfiN WILL HARD TIMES LET UP? Coffee County Progress. This quostlou Is on the, henrts and inlmis of the people of every section. It Is the all-absorbing topic hero and everywhere. Everyone wants to know When business will pick up again. Business Is not going to pick up un til we get nur debts paid. 1 When you pny your debts, nnd your neighbor pays bis debts, kaiul Ills neighbors ‘ pny tlioir debts, then nnd not until then will con ditions bo righted. The only effective Way ,to put new Jife into business today, and keep it there, is for us nil to pny our debts. If you owe a debt now Hint Ims been Imaging over, nnd you have ti dnllnr to place ngniust it, put it there. If you cannot pay nil, pny what you can. Money thus put to moving gets Into business chan nels, iinil sdon tho wlinlo community feels it. Hard times will end the’ day our debts nrc paid—or such portions of them ns can bo paid. Open nueounts of long standing nrc n drag on lids or any other community. We know what wo are talking about. If you pny up, nnd all of iib pay up, it will enable those wo pay to pny lip. Monoy thus paid starts on tho rounds, paying bills, nnd winds up by coming back to where It started. There is ns much monoy in the coun try us ever. It hnsn’t boon destroyed. It needs circulating, that’s nil. If this campaign of paying what you can if yon can’t pny all Is started, It will be surprising how many debts can bo liqui dated without, anyone suffering. How- evor, ovoryone must, pay as far as he can to accomplish the results desired. There is hardly anyone who owes more than is owed to them. Suppose that everyone could collect nil that is duo them? They could then turn around and pny all they owe—they would bo loft with go ovorhnnglng, embarrassing obli gations, ond everybody would bo bene- 5 tod. WHAT IS A SMILE WORTH? Grnud Rapids Herald. Little Jimmy Godfrey, aged 13, cllmb- od a tree—out in Kansas City—to gather walnuts. He came in contact with an electric wire. One side of his face was burned, leaving an ugly scar. A damage suit against tho power and light com- puny was instituted on Jimmy’s behalf. On the witness stnud Jimmy was asked to try to smile. Tho only result was a puckering of tho lips and a melancholy drawing of tho fnco. A physician testi fied that the smile muscle in his check had boon bound by tho scarred tissue above. Tho jury promptly roturnod a vordict giving Jimmy $20,000. That be comes .tho officially fixed vnlue of a smilo. Moral: If n smilo is worth $20,000 wlion you loso it, It is worth $20;000 when you uhu it. The world Is full of Jimmy Godfreys—some of 'em little chaps like him—some of ’em big, grown up folks. Some of ’em are‘like J immy 1h now—“smile muscle’.’ gono—instend, a deep, dark, forbidding frown that miikbs tho world a little darker nnd a little gloomlor for nil who come in eon- tnot with thorn. They paid Jimmy $20,000 to compen sate him for his loss. His loss! Do you get that? In other words, impor tant ns Jimmy’s smile wus to others, it was most important of all to him. A nr tinniest clergyman one Sunday morning was exhorting those who hud anxious nnd troubled consciences to call on their pastor for guidance and prayer. “To show you tho blessed results of these visits with your pastor,” said ho, “1 will s'.ute Hint only yesterday n gon- tlomnn of wealth called upon me for counsel and instructionnnd now today my friend—today 1m sits among ns, :itit only a Christian, but a happy husband nnd father.”, A young Indy in the audience wills- pored to a matron: “Wasn’t that rather quick work!” LONE OAK.

Miss Mary Nall nnd Mr. Rufus Null, of Nowniin, were guests of relatives here Sunduy. . , , ,, Mr. Bel) Clvfltt, who has been working In Atlanta, came homo Saturday and has been laid up since by illness.

A largo number of fine porkers have boon slaughtered since the cold weather set In, Almost everyone in this part of tho county 1ms plenty of food nnd feed stuff for home consumption. That’s something to be thankful for. Ono of our renders asks why, if an editor thinks so highly of chances on tho farm, he does not quit his present job and become a farmer. The answer to Hint is simple, namely: Ho has trained himself to something else and probably could not succeed in ngrieul- turo; it is too late to begin. Nor is it likely that a middle-aged farmer, who has been farming all his working life, could go to tho city and obtain per manent employment as au editor, easy nnd woll paid as the' editor's work may seem to him; it is too late in his ease also. We see no way of adjusting the situation to the satisfaction of all, and wo suppose nearly everybody will go on to the end of the chapter, thinking he 1b gotting the worst of it. But human nature has endowed a lot of us with the belief that we could do better if we were in the other follow's place. And wo suppose we ’ll never learn the differ ence,—Telfair Enterprise.
