decision, as to by whom was the medal
Won, the tardiness and absences were
considered.
The four girls having made 190 each
month, and the best attendance, and
least number of tardies were:
- ... „ Pep., ab., tr.,
Miss Alary Wilson TOO 10 1
Miss Minnie Henry - 100 3 1

Happy Christmas for Orphans.
Christmas means happy’ chil
dren. Orphans feel their louli
ness most at Christmas as they re
member the happy days. Friends
should remember especially all the
Orphans’ Homes and make God
glad at the orphans’ good cheer. 1
Two little brothers of three and
one, their mother in the grave,
their father in jail, homeless, pen
niless, wanted by no one, the baby
at death’s door, found the love
they were starving for in the lov
ing arms of mother Taylor in the
Methodist Orphans’ Home at De
catur, Ga. Though fifteen months
old. little Maxi weighed only nine
pounds, and mother Taylor said,
after being up with him nearly
every moment for a week. “I’m so
glad I could save his life.” This
rich love has blessed nearly a hun
dred destitute orphans this year.
The home has had to be enlarged
by building the “Boy’s Home,” so
as to care for more of these moth
erless ones.
What could give you and your
family a happier Christmas than
to determine to care for an orphan
in the Decatur Home next year,
or even for one month at the small
cost of $5.00 a month? Write the
undersigned at Atlanta that you
,will thus make a noble Christinas
gift, that will even rejoice the an
gels, and God himself.

In Memory
Os little Exa Privitt, who was born
June 17, 1895, and died July 10, 1896.
Little Exa is dead and we will bear
her sweet voice no more, but if we
live according to the will of God we
will meet her some day in Heaven.
During her brief life she won many
hearts for she was such a sweet little
creature that none knew her but to
love her. But she has gone from us
never to return.
Farewell Exa, farewell darling
Peaceful be thy silent rest;
Slumber sweetly God knew best
When to call thee home to rest.
Farewell Exa, farewell darling
-We must say our last farewell;
Till we meet beyond the river
Happy there with thee to dwell.
