Death of Miss Jeanette Singleton it is always sadl to announce the dleath of anyon-., but especi ally is this tr'ue of a young per son. Miss Jeanette was just enterinrg vouing woman hood1 andl gave priomise of' a useful life. She wams the oldest daughter of Mr'. and Mrs. J. E. Singleton, of the Peters Creek section: was b)orn Au .nst 5, 1898. and dlied August 1, 1915. Though her' life hereP wasi short vet she had by noble qual ities of hea rt and nmind endear ed herself to a large circle of (friends who monrn her going away from them. For nearly five years she was a mnember of Pettirs Creek Baptist chur tch, where her' r'emiains wer'e laidl to rest the day following her death. The funer'al ser'vices were con. dlucted byv her pastor, Rev. J. A. Hunnicut and the large as semblly of' arrowing friends at testedl the highi esteem and lovet in which she .'as held.

Deith of Miss Lucy Garvin Sorrow came into the hearts of Central and the surrounding community when it was an nounced that Miss Lucy Garyin was (lead. On Monday, July 26, just at the setting of the sun, her spirit took its flight. For several months her health had been failing, but about a week before her death she was taken critically ill and all that skilled physicians and loving care could give availed nothing. Death came as a relief to her suffer ings, but brought bitter pain and sorrow to the ones left be hind. Hers was a beautiful life, filled with love and service to the home, the ,church and friends. Gentle, modest, refined and unselfish she endeared her self to all who knew her, but it was in the home and to those who knew her best that her li-ht shone brightest. She pos sessed to a marked degree that "Charity that thinketh no evil," and never criticised the faults of others but sought to find the good in all. In the likeness of His spirit she lived on earth, and we feel she is only translat ed to His presence. Her funeral was conducted at Mt. Zion church the (lay following her death, by her pastor, Rev. J. C, Bailey of the Presbyterian church assisted by Rev. Eizie Myer- of the Methodist church, the interment follo ving in the cemetery of that church. She leaves, to mourn her death, her mother, Mrs. Etta Garvin, three sisters, Mrs. J, .' Thode, Mrs. W. J. Werner, Mrs. D. P. Montgomery, and a brother J. B. Garvin )esides hosts of relatives and friends. The heartfelt symnathy of all goes out to the family and espe cially to the immediate home 3 circle. M. r From Little Eastatoe - ltev. B. F.

Miss Kendrick comes highly re com mende(d as a literary and nmsic teacher and1 we are well pleased wvith her so far. Thell farmers' vacation mon11th has arrived~ and we are all glad to rest~ a spell from our la bore. If the present dry spell lasts a few (lays longer' crops, especial ly corn, wvill b)e cut very short. Small grain wvas short and the wilt or' blight (disease has struck the tomIlatoes, so they wvill b~e al miost a failure. W. W.
