Our next meeting of the Farmers’ Union to be he'd December 4th, will be very important. That is the day we must elect officers for the ensu ing year. Every local in the county should send a full delegation of the best men they Have. We need the best men we have for officers, and no one would appreciate an office if there were only a handful of dis interested delegates present to elect them. Then there will be subjects of much importance to discuss, so l do hope that the locals through the county will all be fully represented that day. L C Padgett. Smoaks, Nov. 10, .

The death angel visited the home of Edward Bailey, and claimed for its victim his beloved wife, Saloma^ She had suffered intensely for the past two months and on the evening of November 1st. her spirit took its flight to its home beyond the skies where suffering is no more. Mrs Bailey was a daughter of Mr Joseph Canfldale. She was a con sistent member of the Pleasant Grove Baptist chureh. She joined this chruch when very young, and lived a faithful member until her death. She leaves a grief-stricken husband, two small children, four sisters, one brother, a father and a step-mother, with a host of sorrowing relatives and friends to mourn her loss. But our loss is her eternal gain. Her mother, one brother and one sister preceeded her to the better land. * Her remains were taken to Pleas ant Grove Baptist church and there funeralized by Rev E D Craven assited by Rev J M Craven, after which her remains were laid to rest in the cemetery there beside her infant, who preceeded her two years. The grief stricken family have the sympathy of the entire community in this their sad hour. But God. in His wisdom, took her to dwell with Him above where sorrow, sickness, pain and death ai*e feared and felt no more. Tis hard to part with those we love. Tis hard to part, tis true, But not so hard to part irom none As tis to part, Saloma, from you. We had a precious treasure once, She was our jov and pride. We loved her ah, perhaps too well For soon she slept and died. All is drear without our dwelling, .Donely are our hearts today For the one we loved so dearly Has forever passed away. Dear ones, we know its hard To give up one we loved so dear But God knew what was best. And took her to dwell up there. Weep not for her loved ones, She has only gone to rest. T’was God that called her home. He doeth all things for the best. A parting hymn, we sing. It gives no inward pain, But we can still be joined in heart Until we meet again. A loved one from us is gone, A voice we loved is still. A place is vacant in our home, Which never can be filled. M. E. B. UNIONISM’S Improve your stock.
