countv. Arthur, son of Mr, J. R.
and Mrs. Hattie West was born Sep
tember 37th, 1880, and died Sept 17,
1834. His life, like that of the rose,
was short but bright Hnd beautiful.
To know him was to love him, for
his amiable disposition and Reutle,
cunning ways won tlie hearts of all.
Words are inadequate to express
how much he was loved 1»y his fond
parents and his devoted brothers
aud sisters, but at, school where we
knew him best, he was always so
cheerful and good natured, so re
spectful aud obedient, to iiis teacher
Hi at he was a special favorite. Alas!
lie is gone! Our hearts bleed when
we remember that never again on
earth will we see liis happy face; but
we are comforted by the thought
that no more will his little oody be
racked with pain or scorched with
lever, hut that lie will.rest in peace
and ,ioy forever with Him who said:
“Suffer little children and forbiil
them not to couie unto me : for of
such is the kingdom of heaven.”

stiff dignity of the Industrial teacher
relaxed and disappeared completely
in curious pranks and tricks.
Some features of tlie affair how
ever were mysterious, aud many
made up their minds before they
ieft that the house was haunted.
For the ghosts were there, solemn,
silent ghosts, all shrouded in white
like Hamlet’s father, moaning and
groaning and gibbering in ghouldisli
glee. In fact the ghosts had every
thing to themselves at first and it
was not until they had ceased to
prowl that tho ladies took down their
heels from the chair rounds aud the
men ceased from trembling.
After the weird work of tlie spirits
was finished came tlie games. The
secret society game was perhaps
the most interesting, and one in
cident came near causing a stampede
among those marvelous creatures—
1 he ghosts.
The ladies had separated them

aud took his seat in tho silent place
with fear and trembling. Every
thing was still and not a sound, save
the beating of the president’s excited
heart, could be discerned. Suddenly
a piiir of soft, sweet lips pressed
themselves on iris rugged face and
tlie faint echo of a kiss rang about
the room. Everybody expected Mr.
Chappell to tear off the blind and
jump up.
Not lie! Oh! no, lie 8'j.t there and
smiled complacently and smacked
liis lips. “Do it again,” he said puck
