IN MEMORIUM McCUTCHEN?In sad but loving remembrance of Herbert James McCutchen, who departed this life November 16, 1918, at Camp Wadsworth, -Spartanburg, S. C. One yevar has passed, my heart is sore, As time flies on I miss you more, Your loving voice, your welcome face, No one can fill your vacant place. If I had seen you at the last And held your dying hand, And heard the last sigh from your heart, % I would not feel so sad. Time cannot heal my wounded heart Or fill the vacant chair, I miss your dear, kind, smiling face, I miss you Herbert, everywhere. . To defend your home, your mother and your flag, fou left us to do your very best, vVe bade you good-bye with a heart full of love, . But to God, we left the rest. You are gone, but not forgotten, Never will your memory fade, . Loving thoughts will always linger Around.the grave where you are laid. Oh, how I miss you when I look around Where you used to sit, My heart melts with tears, but I trust, Some day I shall seeyo u again. * ' Heart-broken Mother. I One year ago my loved one was taken away, Stil! for his dear voice I am lisening each day, But .if it is wrong to grieve for him sd, God in His mercy will pity my woe. \ The month of November again is here, The saddest to me, of all the year. It was a bitter pain, a shock sincere, To part with one I loved so dear. I have had griefs and sorrows both great and small, ' But dear, when you left me, *Twas the hardest of them all. I often sit and wonder, Why Herbert dear, so young, had to die, * Was it because I loved you so, That God called him from this earth below ? Friends kriow not the grief of my weary heart, When in life; from my loved one 1 am apart, And though from the world my pain is concealed, To God, and his unbounding mercy it is revealed I loved him, but God loved him best * * Devoted Wife. One sad year has passed dear Herbert Since you have gone from us, But just as long as life shall last, I will always think of . thee. 1 did not know the pain you had, I did not see you die, I only know you went away And never said good-bye. Brother Watson. In the cemetery sweetly sleeping, Where the trees their branches wnwe, Lies the one we loved so dearly, In his lonely, silent grave. Yon are not forgotten, dear Herbert, Nor will you ever be, As long as life and memories last, Wo will alwftvs thinlc of thee. Sister Idonia. I We are so lonely without you Herbert, How we miss you no one knows, Our thoughts are always with you From early morn till evening close. Some day we hope to meet thee, Where the happy millions dwell There for you. to greet us, Where no farewell tears are shed. Sister Maude. Oh, the memory of that evening, As with breaking heart I held his precious hand, Seeing tho one I loved so dearly, Pierced by death's most cruel dart As I knelt at your bedside, dear Herbert, one year ago today, And prayed for God to keep you, And to meet again some day. "Eternal rest grant unto him, Oh Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.'' ? Sister Annie. Dear brother, the very light and love of home, Who came, we thought to stay, To make us happy while we live, "l'oo soon was called away. Heaven retaineth now our treasure, Earth the lonely casket keeps, And the sunbeams love to linger Where my darling brother s^ps. Sister Mollie. o "How to Keep The Boy on The Farm".

Southern congressmen Saturday successfully routed all attempts toa;, tach to the pending railroad bill in i the house any provision to infringe the rights of the Southern states to "Jim Crow" cars. In their fight they were aided by members from other parts of the country. ( By a vote of 142 to 12 a proposed I amendment by Representative MadIrlpn of Illinois. ReDublican; was voted I down and out of the measure. 1 Southern members in unison attacked the proposal, telling-the house that it would disturb conditions in the South seriously and cause friction between the races which might end in , bloodshed * "This is not a proper question to be raised at this time," Representative Snyder, Republican, of New York told the hoifee "No demand for it is made by the negro people and we already have enough difficulties w'thout bringing on this one. The North does not realize what it means to the people of the South." Representative Crisp, Democrat, of Georgia brought the debate to an end with a motion to strike out the proposed amendment and his motion prevailed. "Somewhere down the line there will come a reckoning," Representative Summers of Texas told the house, warning it against the proposal. "It's a bad situation down there and unless you permit us to draw the line somewhere there will be friction." Representatives Stevenson of South Carolina told the house the South handled its negro problem better than the North as was evidenced by the recent race riots and Representative Moore of Virginia reminded the members that the supreme court of the TTmi!4a#1 Vop cncf omorl flio LIUVCU OWIVCO iiao I9UCMIIUVU v??v rights of the states to provide separate accommodations for the races on trains. o DIED OF NATURAL CAUSES Florence Officials Investigate Sudden Death of J. T. Miles Coroner Smith of Florence was called to Scranton Saturday to investigate the death of J. T. Miles, the circumstances surrounding whiqh had been reported to him as suspicious. It was learned that Mr. Miles died while sitting in a drug store at Scranton a few minutes after he had been served with a dose of a well known patent medicine for headache. Jle hat! stated that he was suffering from tqothache when he called for the remedy, and that during the morning he had visited a dentist at Lake City. In viewy of these circumstances the sudden death of Mr. Miles caused considerable comment and there were some who were disposed to think that his death was primarily due to the remedies he had taken. A careful in vestigation disclosed the fact, however, that these fears were groundless and the coroner's jury returned a verdict stating that Mr. Miles had come to his death from natural causes..,. Mr. Miles was a well known fanner of the Cowards section. He leaves a widow and six children. He was 40 years old. Lap robes for Buggies and Automobiles at PEOPLE'S MERCANTILE COMPANY, Kingstree.
