s the news of the death of little
Alpn Lamar Henderson, eleven
mojjith and thirteen day old son of
Mil and Mrs. William C. Ilender
sor, spread over the town Sunday
aft;rnoon the usual sound of cheer
fulivoices and the inspiration of
smiling faces • suddenly became
transformed from its state of cheer¬
fulness, as the cloud obscures the
bright rays of the sun, to that of
gloom through sympathy for the
inmates of the home so suddenly
brought from from gladness to grief
by the departure of its youngest
jewel from earth life to that of the
spiritual.
Little Allan Lamar was sick less
than twenty-our hours, and during
that short perion of time the medi¬
cal aid was tendered him, and he
received every possible attention
and comlort at the the hands of
loved ones; hut it was God’s will,
Goe’s will being supreme,that little
Allan Lamar was wafted away on
the snow-white bosom of God’s
chosen messenger from the sins and
temptations of this wicked world, a
precious gem to adorn His Man¬
sions in the Sky.
Funeral services were conducted
in the home Monday afternoon by
Revs. R. P. Tatum and Chas. W.
Henderson, after which the cortege
filed it way to the cemetery where
the little body was gently laid to
rest in the folds of mother earth
beneath a bank of fragrant flowers.

parted soul have the deepest sym¬

Cheese Factory Opened Monday.
After some delay in opening ol
the cheese factory on account of
variout reasons, we are now glad
to tell our readers that it has open¬

Mr. L. H. Marlatt, expert cheese
man, is here supervising it until a
cheese maker can be learned, who

The patronage this week is not
what it will be after our farmers
know that it is running, and we
trust they wille backjt up to their
utmost. It can be made a success,
for the only thing it lacks is milk,
and our farmers have the milk if
they will but carry it to the factory

Your Very Best Wealth
^jtOME ^bud MEN WERE talking about the good and
investiments they had made. AH agreed that
it is not so easy to make the best use of one’s money—
that mistakes are easy to make.
One man said : “The best part of my wealth is not
an investiment at all. My farm and my Liberty Bonds
are all right—I am glad 1 have them. But those are
‘fixed investiments’and the profit fronrthetn is be=t
when I hold on to them.

“The very best part of my wealth is that part which
will serve me best and in the largest number of ways.
That's why the money in my bank account is my Very
Best Wealth—it is always ready no matter what I
want to do.

Save the Dollar Now
lias it ever occurred to you that the dollars you save
now will go twice as far in purchasing a home or any other
necessity when normal conditions return? The record high
wages and salaries of today make this the most logical time
to save
Every dollar deposited today in savings will be worth
considerable more in buying power when prices drop, in
addition to drawing interest. Appreciating the import¬
ance of this opportunity, we urge you to add as much as
possible to your savings regularly.
Our officers appreciate your patronage and want’your
connection with this bank to be of distinct benefit to you.
