Mrs. A. H. Henderson
Passes To Beyond.
After an illness of a few weeks
duration, Mrs. A. II. Henderson,
Sr., passed from life unto death at
her home in town Monday after¬
noon about 5’clock, Mrs. Hender¬
son, better known as “Aunt Eliza,”
fell in her room while stooping to
pick up some article that lay upon
the floor and has never known what
caused her to fall. In* the fall she
fractured a hip, and from that day
until her death she slowly moved
downward in health and upward
in spirit.
The funeral services were con¬
ducted by Revs. O’Kelley, of Cler¬
mont. and Rev. \V, R. Power, of
Cleveland, in the home, with the
concluding services at the grave in
Cleveland cemetery, where the
body was laid to rest in presence of
many sad hearted friends and
weeping relatives.
By the people of the town Mrs.
Henderson has been held in the
highest esteem. She was endowed
with such a great love for all that
no one ever appealed to her but
their needs were cheerfully given
with a smile, pleasant look and the
outpou’ring of a gracious heart.
Site has resided in Cleveland for
over forty years, and is not only
known in Cleveland and White
county, hut by hosts of people all
overGeorgia and neighboring states
who have stopped at the hotel she
managed, where they always met
such a hearty welcome.
All the care and love of skilled
physicians and an anxious house¬
hold could devise and apply for
her comfort and assistance were
brought into play, but the will of
He who rules our incomings and
outgoings had been issued and their
prayer# and entreaties were over¬
ruled, and before the hills were
kissed by the setting sun her spirit
had gone home to He who gave it
unto everlasting life.
As the death dew gathered upon
her marble brow her relatives gath¬
ered in silence to witness the last
of that noble woman on earth.
Smooth the locks of silver hair,
On that marble brow with tenderest care,
Gather the robe in final fold
Around the form so still and cold;
Lay on her bosom, pure as snow,
The fairest, sweetest flowers that grow,
Kiss her and leave her our hearts delight;
Her pain is over she sleeps tonight
No Time Limit For Weighing
And Measoring.
Letters and telegrams asking
the Children’s Bureau of the U.S.
Department of Labor to extend the
Weighing Measuring Test have
been so urgent that the Bureau an¬
nounced today its intention of re¬
moving entirely the time limit for
receiving reports of the test. How¬
ever, the Bureau calls attention to
the fact that the sooner these report*
are received at the Chicago Office
of the Bureau, at 540 South Dear¬
born Street, Chicago, the sooner
can the information concerning the
health of American Children, as re¬
vealed by the reports, be compiled
and given out.
Extensive local use has already
been made of the report cards for
the Weighing and Measuring Test.
The facts they reveal have been
used to stimulate work for child
welfare. In some cities arrange¬
ments have been made to send a
public health nurse at regular in¬
tervals to the home of every baby
whom the Weighing and Measuring
Test has revealed to be underweight
to advise the mother concerning
the care and feeding of her child
until it has been brought up to the
normal standard. In many places,
weighing and measuring is recur¬
rent. Parents are urged to bring
their children to the stations at in¬
tervals of three months, §0 that

Christmas Parcels For A. E. F.
Under Red Cross Supervision.
The War Department is desirous
that each man serving in theAmer
icanExpeditionaryForces in Europe
shall receive a remembrance from
home at Christmas time, and ad¬
vises that because of transporta¬
tion and distribution difficulties but
one parcel of standard size and
weight can be sent to each. To
this end arrangements have been
made whereby Christmas parcels
may be mailed to members of the
A. E. F. in Europe under the
lowing conditions :

ing the correct name and address
the soldier or member and also
name of the person designated
mail the parcel. The labels will
prepared to serve as address
for the parcels. The label furnish¬
ed each soldier or other member
the A. E. F. will be sent by him
the person who is to mail
Christmas parcel. No Christman
parcel for members of the A. E. F.
in Europe will be will be
for transmission without such label.
All Christmas parcels must

es, and shall not exceed 3

seal showing that the parcel

Such certificates will be
by the Postal Service and
authorities as evidence that the
parcels conform to the
prescribed and obviate the neces¬
sity of subsequent examination.
Ad Interview With A Seer
With Apologies To Cowper.
Germany shall perish—write that word
In the blood that she had spilt;
Perish, hopeless and abhorred,
Deep in ruin as in guilt.
Germany, for empire far renowned,
Tramples on many states;
Now her pride shall kiss the ground—
Hark! the Tanks are at her gates.

their progress may be noted and re¬
corded. The State Board of Health
of Wisconsin has passed a resolution
asking that the Weighing and mea¬
suring of children under six years
of age be made an annual event.
The condition of babies and
little children as revealed by the
Weighing and Measuring Test,
has aroused public interest in the
physical condition of older children.
Agitation for regular medical in¬
spection of school children has be¬
come part of the Children’s Year
program in several States, and in a
number of places the provisions of
warm, well-cooked luncheons for
school children is being urged as a
Children’s Year activity.

How About ike Farmer?
The end of the fourth Liberty Loan campaign is close at hand, and
the South has not fully met its share of this national obligation.
There have been many subscriptions, and many of them were large.
There were some which represented merely the surplus money of wealthy
folk; there were many which meant real self-denial by the poor. But on the
whole, we have not made a sacrifice. We have said to ourselves: “I can¬
not spare any money just now," and turned the canvassers away w'ith a
small subscription or with nothing at all.
Now, let us think this thing over, you and 1. This is our war. Our
boys are fighting in it, our country is backing it. It is just as much our
■war as though the Germans were bombarding Charleston or Savannah or
Brunswick or New Orleans and threatening to march Inland, burning and
destroying, and murdering innocent women and children. It isn't a far-away
war in Europe. It is our war.
Let us consider this bond issue as a cold-blooded business proposition,
If you like. Suppose we were stockholders in a big business house which had
been waging a great and expensive light for success. Suppose our rivals
had fought us' hard and had almost won the victory. Suppose that we
had poured every effort into the business and were gaining the advantage,
that we wore right on the eve of permanent success—and our money' ran
out!
Let us suppose that the president and directors you had elected to run
that business called on us as stockholders for more money to win this
fight; that they assured us and proved to us that additional finds would
win, and pay us a handsome return. Would we button up our pocketbooks
and say: “No, it isn’t our business. We can’t spare the money?" No. We
would pour in all we had and mortgage our farms to borrow more, and
we'd pour that in, if we had faith in the business and the men who were
conducting it for us.
And we must not forget that the United States is our business, and the
greatest business of all. We have entered into a campaign to lick Ger¬
many and lick her so she can never raise her head again. And that takes
money. If we are not willing to pay our share, we prove we have no trust
in our own government. ,
The Southern farmer was worried a few weeks ago because he be¬
lieved the government was going to fix a low price on cotton. That was
not done, and we have assurances that it will not bo done. President Wil¬
son heard the appeal of the cotton planter and was governed by It. Now
he asks, in the name of the government, that the cotton planter and every
other farmer bear his share of the burden of the Liberty Loan and lend
the country every dollar he can save. Suppose the cotton planter of the
South shows up in the last reports its having failed to do his fair share.
What position will he find himself in when he goes to Washington again
to ask that he be protected? . 0.
This fourth Liberty Loan Is a big affair, but it Is not a dollar too big
If every man will take the lesson home to himself and do his full share,
without thinking of how' big the amount of the national loan is. There
Is not a man or woman in the United States who has a farm or a store or
a shop or a job ^ho cannot buy a bond of large size or small. The banks
have made arrangements for small payments lasting six months. The man
who cannot save and invest $50 in six months is a mighty poor citizen. And
the average man who has two logs and two arms can do a great deal better
than that.
And there’s something else—if you want to get back to the straight
business side of this Liberty Loan -a government bond, [saying four and one
fourth per cent interest, better than gold or silver, which earn nothing—
Is a mighty good thing to have stuck away against that time of trouble
which comes to all of us some day.

FARMERS & MERCHANTS BANK
OF CLEVELAND, GEORGIA
THE BAN 14 THAT LIVES UP TO ITS POLICY
We ure very definite in our ideas of what a Bank
owes its community, aud of the attitude which it should
take toward its customers.
There is no favored few here. Every patron stands
upon exactly the same footing—entitled to all the service
we can render properly. There is a feeling that Banks are
stiff and reserved institutions—-sitting in judgment upon
mens’ affairs. But this is not one of that type. Our atti¬
tude is studiously opposite. We seek to impress you with
our sincere desire to handle your account in a safe manner
and meet your requirements to the fullest degree. What¬
ever service we may be able to render to you, will be done
cordially and cheerfully.
There IS a difference in Banks, but the Farmers &
Merchants is the Progressive kind—welcoming your bus¬
iness with genuine appreciation Expressed in SERVICE.
