IN LOVING MEMORY OF
FRANK ALEYANDFR
Frank Alexander departed this
life June 27, 1921, and was laid to
rest in Nicholson cemetery at Nich¬
olson, Ga., in the presence of a
large concourse of friends and rela¬
tives, Rev, Mills conducting the
burial services. Frank died from
being operated on for appendicitis
in the hospital of Dr. Sanders,
of Commerce, Ga. He was
14 years of age. Though young
in years he gave his heart and life
to Christ, living a true Christian
life and exemplifying the life of
Christ in his every-day life. He
was kind and gentle, possessing a
lovable disposition. He had a
kind word and a smile for every
one. He was a dutiful son, always
ready an d willing to do the bidding
of his father and mother, He was
one of the most industrious boys we
have ever seen. He worked until
Friday night and was taken very
sick. The doctor was summoned,
lie was operated on Sunday and
died Monday evening in the full
triumph of Christian faith. He
said, “Mamina, you can’t cross this
river with me.” But Frank cross¬
ed the river and is now resting on
the banks of sweet deliverance,
awaiting the coming of father,
mother, brothers, sister and rela¬
tives. Frank was the son of John
1 ). and F,vie Alexander, of Nichol¬
son, Ga. lie leaves a father, moth¬
er, a brother and sisters, grandpa¬
rents, host of relatives and friends
to mourn his departure. We ex¬
tend to the bereaved family our
heart-felt sympathy.
While our hearts are torn and bleeding.
O’er the spoils that death has won,
We must still in faith believing,
Calmly say, ‘‘Thy will be, done!”
Though today we’re filled with mourning
Mercy still is on the throne,
With his smiles of love returning.
Can we say “Thy will be done”?
Frank, kind, tender, gentle.
No more with us shall roam;
He’s dwelling in the heavenly mansion
Where no sorrows eve,r come.
Farewell. Frank, but not forcve.r.
There’ll be a glorious dawn;
We shall meet to part, no nevre
On the resurrection morn.
Ilis life was short, but bis in¬
fluence will last for ages, for he was
truly a good Christian. We give
our kindest regards to the good
people of Jackson and Madison
counties for their many kindnesses
shown in his death.

Go-Operative Cheese
Factory To Be Sold
At a meeting of the Co-Operative
Cheese Factory held in Cleveland
Saturday Ang, lj it was voted by
the stockholders present to see the
factory equipment and house as
soon as the committee could possi¬
bly do so to the best advantage of
the stockholders.
The stockholders present decided
that it was little or no use to try to
resume operation again, as the
phople have been given this oppor
tunitf enough th m^ke their deci¬
sion.
It is hope that a few of the best
supportera of the factory during Its
operation will buy it and continue
to operate.
It is to be regretted that the fac¬
tory lacked the proper patronage,
which was the couse of its closing,
but we believe that it can be op¬
erated by a few individuals and be
a paying proposition. The over¬
head expenses will be very small if
the factory is owned and operated
by a few.
The committee selected at this
meeting to make the sale if the
equipment and house are : J. B. R.
Barrett, Jess Hunt, sr; R, B. Miller.
