Mr. Robert G. Sberhard and his as sociates in the Graphic Arts Studio «if New York collaborated 1 in pro ducing the design for the 1925 stal. at of Mr. Eberhard teaches sculpture Yale University and is an artist note. The design is quite a departure from t Santa Claus and figure designed in recent years. Its holly, mistletoe and candles symbolize the spirit of Christmas and love of hu manity. The double barred cross, the emblem of the campaign against tu berculosis, links the idea of health with the idea of the Christmas spirit in the conventionalized decorative de sign.

At hij* home a mile from Meyer’s Mill, at 6:15 a. m., on the fifth of December, ^926, our friend fell asleep in the arms of Jesus, as the tiny-babe. ' upon its mother’s breast. He was a polighed Christian gentleman of the old South, a large planter, living in his home of elegance, surrounded by those en vironments that mark 'the owner as ^lord of the manor.” As slave owner, he maintained the honjie of comfort ahd abundance, where Southern hos pitality was generously extended to every one so fortunate as to enter its precinctsT “ $»’• Meyer was always ready to lend a helping hand in all good works. He. was a charter member of ,Camp Niorrall, U. C. V„ and was our first Commandant and our last. He was dearly beloved by his comrades and all who know him. “Full many a gem of purest ray serene The deep unfathomed caves of ocean bear; •And many a flower is born to blush unseen ' , And waste its fragrance on the desert air.” _ . . Three weeks since I spent the day with Brother Meyer and found him cheerful and patient. He said, “I have been here long enough. I thank God for His goodness t> me. I am pre pared to go when the Master calls me.” His were the words of the Christian Soldier. He has, been a deacon in the Baptist Church for fifty years and recently gave $3,000 for rebuilding of Steele Creek Church- He also aided the Barnwell Church. He entered the Confederate Army as a young man and was only 22 at the Wirrender^ He w«« jn many engage ments and distinguished himself by His bravery;' He was a sincere friend, and was active in aiding the ex- soMier and his widow in securing their pensions. His funeral was preached by the Rev. E. H. Clark, of Augusta, to a large congregation on the 6th inst, and his body was interred in tne family cemetery. .» “Thr heroes wrested from us Have not lived nor died in vain, For their memory’s bow of promise Spans our years of pain.” Nicholas A.

Many Barnwell Folks Have Found How to Make Work Easier. « What is. so hard as n day’s work with an aching back? Or sharp stabs of pain at every sudden twist or turn? There is no peace from tJ»*L dull ache. No rest from the soreness, lame ness and weakness. Many folks have found relief through Doan’s Pills. They are a stimulant diuretic to the kidneys. Barnwell people recommend Doan’s. C. C. Owens, drayman, Barnwell, says: “Jolting while riding on the wagon irritated my kidneys and they acted irregularly. I became lame and my back was stiff' and sore. My kidneys acted too freely and I had to get up several times nt night. The secretions were highly colored and contained sediment. I went to the Best Pharmacy and got Donn’s Pill*. Doan’s relieved me in a short time.” ' - 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.
