We wonder whether our cor-
respondents did not understand
about their letters, as only one
came in this week. Last week
we asked them to get their let-
ters in early but we received
only one. We hope you are not
“quitting.”

Since our last issue things
have “happened” in Washington.
Doubtless every newspaper read-
er has learned of Secretary
Bryan’s resignation and why.
There has been and is a good deal
of discussion concerning his res
ignation and the note sent to
the Germans by President Wil-
son. We do not mean to discuss
matters aiiy, but certainly hope
the fighting nation may come to
look at matters from our (Ameri-
ca) viewpoint.
One of the messages sent to
President Wilson last week was
shortly after the Texas Press
Association meeting at Corpus
Christi opened, and read:
“The Texas Press Association,
in convention assembled, unre-
servedly indorses your policy
for our country in the present
world crisis. We hope that
when the terrible conflict is end-
ed, guided by your unyielding
love of righteous peace, she
shall have passed through its
frightfulness without so much
as the smell of tire on her gar-
ments and that-this Nation, as the
friend of humanity, and as one
power in the midst of insanity
which has remained sane, will
be turned to by the world to
shape the terms of universal
peace and lead in the rehabilita
tionof mankind.”

In Memoria.1,
Once more we "have been re
minded that we are traveling on
the level of time to that undis-
covered oountry from whose
bourne no traveler returns.
A few days ago a large circle
of relatives, friends and ac-
quaintances gathered around
to pay the last loving.tiibute to
all that was mortal of Mrs. A.
E. Wooley.
On such occasions when we
look upon the newly made grave
and the sorrowing friends we
are instantly reminded of the
words of the dirge “Dust thou
art to dust returneth.”
We know tuat we cannot es-
cape the common lot of all mor-
tal beings and that sooner or lat-
er we must return to the earth
from which we sprang, for
"earth to earth and dust to
dust” is our common lot; that
soon this flesh and blood will
fail and earth claim its own.
While we realize this and bow
our heads in humble submission
to the inexorable laws of God—
the question comes unbidden,
If a man die shall he live
again?” This question which
has come ringing down through
the ages appeals to us ali the
more forcibly on occasions like
this, for on its answer hinges
our hope of future happiness,
our expectation of future re-
ward and our only incentive td a
life of usefulness and service
while on earth.
We have abundant assurances
in the Holy Book that we shall
live again, but further---it is the
glorious springtime and on every
hand we see proofs of immor-
tality—in the fields of ripening
grain; in the flowers; in the
growing corn and in the bud-*1
ding trees; for it is through the
death of the old seed that a
new flower, a new plant, or a
new tree springs into being in
the glad spring time, and under
the influence of the warm spring
showers and glorious sunshine
develops into the new grain, the
new flower, or the new tree.
And if the Master has im-
planted in matter mute and in-
animate such as the grain of
wheat or corn or the acorn the
power to undergo thousands of
successive resurrections, will
He leave neglected in the grave
the soul of mar, made in.the
image of the Creator? “No, t
shall not doubt that my soul has
power to clothe itself with a new-
body suited to its new existance
when this earthly tenement shall
have crumbled into dust.”
So that while we have looked
for the last time on all that is
mortal of our dear friend who is
gone, we have no doubt that her
soul, freed from the weaknesses
and frailties and pains of the old
body, has clothed itself with a
new form made in the image of
the Creator himself, is now en-
joying the fruits of a well earned
rest after the trials and hard-
ships of the life just closed.
M rs. Woolley was left a good
many years ago through the loss
of her companion and helpmfeet
to face the battles of life—alone
I was about to say—but the all
wise, ail seeing eye of Him who
doeth all things well” never
permits those left in her state to
feel that they are figting the bat-
tles of life alone, and we know
that she constantly availed her-
self of His aid and counsel, and
through His help and guidance
and the loving care and assist-
ance of her relatives, she suc-
ceeded in providing for her chil-
dren and raising a splendid fam-
ily to years of maturity, and was
enabled by divine providence to
live until we might almost say
that her earthly work was finish-
ed and she was ready for theoall,
well done good and faithful ser-
vant, enter into the joys of the
Lord.”
I had the pleasure of knowing
th's good woman, this woman of
God, for a good many years add
I know that had it not been for
the sustaining grace and the
loving watchful care of God she

could never have finished her
work as she did. For whilq her
only son was but a little boy and
her daughters unable to render
her much assistance she was
always cheerful, always striving
with that calm assurance that all
would be well, that was so char-
acteristic of her, and though
herself frail and often racked
with pain and weakened with
disease she always met her
friends with a smile and a cheer-
ful word, and even a few hours
before her death smiled at the
efforts of her friends to cheer
her in her affliction.
Her work is done; the poor,
tired hands are at rest, the frail
body so often racked with pain
is now troubled no more, and
what is better and more glorious
and grander far than this is,
that she has so influenced her
children through God’s grace
that all have the sweet assur-
ance, that when the spring time
of the resurrection shall come
they shall meet her again on
that bright strand where sad
partings come no more.
A Friend.
Odd Bits of News
Gulfport, Miss.—John Keating
of this place died the other day
and his obituary was published.
A barber was called in to shave
the corpse. As the razor passed
over the man’s , cheek his eyes
opened, his lips parted, and he
said “Don't cut me, kid.” The
barber dived through the win-
dow and is somewhere in Okla-
homa by this time. Keating is
alive and well.
Grinnell, la.—W. C. Robinson,
an amateur aviator, was tuning
up his monoplane in a field near
Dr. Somers’ office when the doc-
tor received a telephone call to
attend a man terribly injured in
a runaway 11 miles southeast of
town. Robinson volunteered to
take the doctor to the scene in
his monoplane, Dr. Somers ac-
cepted and the 11 miles were
covered in six minutes, or at
rate of 110 miles an hour.
Trenton, N. J.—Chas. Katzea
lost the use of his voice as the
result of an accident several
years-ago. Last week a fellow
patient in a hospital told a funny
story. Katz< i laughed long and
loud. That night in a dream he
repeated part of the story aloud.
Next morning it was found that
his power of speech was res-
tored.
Edwardsville, III.—Something
strange has happened to a poplar
tree on the premises of Town
Clerk Peter Dresch. The tree
gives - forth a strage, powerful
and sweet perfume. No one has
been able to explain the phen-
omenon.
Gardner, 2, was found unhurt
and cooing when her father
crawled under the taxi to rescue
the babe.
Frederick, Md.—Rev. George
Whiteside, preaching a sermon
on the subject “Take unto thy
self a wife,” was interrupted by
H. C. Rockwall and Miss Nellie
Barger, who taking the preacher
at his word, arose from their
places in the congregation and
marched down the aisle to the
pulpit, where the young man re-
quested the minister to m&ary
them. After a whispered con-
versation the ceremony was
performed. The sermon was
never finished, for the affair was
turned into a reception.-
Perth Amboy, N. J.—Mr. and
Mrs. McFarlans have 17 child
ren. Her husband thought it
would be right to hire a house-
keeper to help her. As soon as
the housekeeper appeared Mrs.
McFarlans walked out and de-
serted the family. When arrest
ed she said that she did not
want anyone interfering with her
work and would go back if the
housekeeper was fired.
Wapakoneta, O, —A pebble,
pinched between the pavement
and an automobile tire, was
hurled against a nearby plate
glass window with such force
that it pierced the glass in the
same manner as it a bullet had
been fired through it.
-Kingman, Ind.—A colt has
been born on a farm near Rom
ney, which is minus his front
legs. Where the right fore leg
should be, there are two legs
about six inches long. One ot
these has the foot of a dog and
the other the foot of a calf. The
animal is expected to live.
Hazelton, Pa.—Jacob Getski,
an armless man, has been ar-
rested for beating his wife.
Mayor Jas. Harvey is wonder-
ing how the wife will prove her
charge when the case comes to
trial.

“Now,” said the farmer to the
new hand from the city, “I want
you to clean up the pig sty and
the stable and the hen house and
all the other houses of the stock.”
The new hand worked vigor-
ously for a couple of days. Then
he appeared before his employer
with both eyas nearly closed,
his mouth swollen and" re
bumps all over his face and nec
and hands.
“Gimme my money,” he said,
“I’m a-goin’ to quit.”
“What’s the matter,” said the
farmer. ■>
“I don’t know what’s the mat-
ter,” said the victim, “but it
happened when I started to
clean the beehive.”
