MRS. NETHERY
DIES SUDDENLY
Apparently in Good Health up
To a Few Hours Before
Her Death on Morning
July Fourteenth.
Mrs. W. 11. Nethery died very
suddenly the morning of July
14th, at the family home, three
miles southeast of town. She
had been as well as usual on
Thursday evening, but after
supper she became very ill and
»»ever regained consciousness
before she died a few hours
later.
She was (53 years and 8 days
of age.
Mrs. Nethery’s maiden name
was Ida Flowers; she was born
at Prairie Lee in Caldwell Coun- i
ty. There in her young woma-1
hood she was married to VV. H. j
Nethery. In 1900 the fam-
ily removed to Kimble County,
where they have since lived.
Her two sons, II. C. and Mor-
ris, are residents of Kimble
County, and were present at the
time of her death. Her daugh-
ter, Mrs, Elizabeth Camp of
Hawley, Texas, was present at
the funeral. One other son
died when a little child.
Besides being survived by her
husband, three children, Mrs.
Nethery’s aged father, H. M.
Flowers, mourns her departure.
She has two brothers at Prairie
Lee, one at Houston, one at
Lockhart, one in Omaha, Neb-
raska; and two sisters, one at
Luling and the other at Prairie
Lee. The father, H. M. Flow-
ers, of Prairie Lee, Mr. M. O.
Flowers of Lockhart, and Mr.
and Mrs. S. J. Davenport, at-
tended the funeral.
Many friends gathered to juiy
their respects to the departed
woman. Her pastor, Rev. S. F.
Marsh, spoke of her good qual-
ities as a wife, mother and as
neighbor, and called attention
to the contribution that Chris-
tianity can make to women’s
well being.
Interment was in the Junc-
tion cemetery.
Hundreds of
tourists from
all parts of
the country
come here to
/enjoy life
carfiping and
fishing on the
Llano rivers.
f
There are
many places
like this along
tin* streams of
Kimble County
unequalled for
bathing, fish-
ing and camp-
ing.

JFaithftil Unto Death.
\ sweet and devoted mother!
A loyal friend and wife,
Who toiled to the very last hour
Of her sixty-three years of life.
Her foot-steps that last night
were weary,
She had reached the end of the
way,
For the summons to “rest from
her labours”
i ame after a busy day.
Our call may be as sudden!
So help us, Lord, to give
1* rom now, a more unselfish love
To those with whom we live.
For women, 1 ke this good mo-
ther,
in \ ho dross ot the world are
pure gold;
rheir lives an inspiring example
pi our heart's sweetest memo-
ries we hold.
in loving memory ot Mrs VV.
11. Nethery. who was suddenly
called-home. July III. 1922.

PROGRESS.
When Willie went into the pantry,
When nobody knew he was there,
And ’ere he had fled, ate a loaf of hot bread,
His mother was filled with despair.
For often the doctor bad told her
How bread that is soggy destroys—
By retimi ng to dough in a second or so—
The stomachs of greedy small boys.
When father, whose love for hot biscuits
Could never be utterly curbed,
After eating a batch with an avid despatch,
Felt inwardly grieved and disturbed—
When he wakened the following morning
Pale, bilious and wholly upnet.
His better half said: “It is too much hot bread
It may be the death of you yet !’’
But now, so physicians inform us,
It really ass sts one a lot,
And adds a real zest to the food we digest
To look on tlu* bread when it is hot.
They give it as “invalid diet
To patients of standing and wealth,
Who are ill of strong drink, and as quick as a wink
It always restor- ’em to health.
Profound are tin wonders of science;
The food that it wouldn't allow
Was tit to bestow on a boy years ago
Is given as medic ne now!
