OBITUARY
Mrs. Rilla Mayhan died at
the home of her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. T E. Clark last Fri
day night, Dec. 13, at 11 o’
clock. Sh<* was taken sick
with the dread malady influ
enza, developing into pneu
monia. She was sick about
ten days.
All was done that loving
hands could do but all our ef
forts were in vain. We had to
submit to Him who doeth all
things well.
Rilla was born Sept. G, 1900
making her 18 years old, just
in the prime of life. She was
married to Gaffney Mayhan
on Christmas day 1915. Rilla
obeyed the teaching of her
Lord and Savior under the
preaching of Bro. B. J. Lemon
who proceeded her to the oth
er world bv G or 8 days. She
became a member of the
Church of Christ the summer
of 1917 and lived a devoted
Christian until death.
The remains were laid to
rest at Mt. Zion, Brother Robt,
Bowman conducting the funer
al services.
She leaves a husband, fath
er and mother, five sisters,
three brothers and a host of
relatives and friends to mourn
her departure. It is sad in
deed to gme up one just in the
prime of life yet our loss is
Rilla’s eternal gain. We can
not call her back to this old
world of sickness, sorrow, and
death but we can meet hei on
the sunny shore where all is
peace and joy and love.
She’s gone to join that throng,
There in the glory land;
Where glittlering crowns adorn
And golden harps in hand
We sadly miss her here
But over on that shore
Again we all can meet
And meet to part no more.

DEMOCRACY VS. AUTOCRACY.
"There Is no royal road to
food conservation. We can only
accomplish this by the voluntary
action of our whole people, each
element In proportion to its
needs. It Is a matter of equality
of burden.”
The truth of this statement,
made by the United States Kood
Administrator soon after we en
tered the war, has been borne
out by the history of our ex
ports. Autocratic food control
in the lunds of our enemies has
broken down, while democratic
food shuriug has maintained the
health and strength of this coun
try and of the Allies.

:OMING FROM THE WAR
fathers, we are coming,
The foes are forced to yield;
Ve met and defeated them
Upon the battlefield.
Tie kaiser is a failure—
The last ditch is ours—
Tie eagle soars aloft,
And other birds devours.
Jod grants great victories,
They’re all upon our side:
io fruitless were the efforts,
Our nation to override.
•'athers, we are coming.
With uor garments red with
gore,
?ut we hope to live in peace,
And go to war no more.

SHE GOT THE SOAP
Dining the Christmas shop
ping season this week a deaf
old lady walked into one of
the leading drug stores of
Newark, located on upper
Front street and asked for five
cents worth of soap.
“We don’t sell a nickel's
worth,” said Curt Welborn, the
polite young clerk.
“Yes,I want the yeller kind,”
replied the old lady.
“You don’t understand me,
madam,” said (Curt; “I said
that a nickel won’t buy any
soap in this establishment.”
“Sure enough,” replied the
aged customer; “soap isn’t
what it used to be in my time;
they put too much rozum in it
these days ”
“Oh, Lord!” exclaimed Curt,
in a stage whisper, will you
just hear this old lunatic?”
Then placing his mouth to the
aged dame’s ear he fairly
screamed: “We don’t sell a
nickel’s worth of soap here!”
“Yes,” said the old lady,
“you may put it in a paper and
tie a* string around it if von
like.”
Curt rushed over to the
showcase, took out a bar of
soap and nearly threw it at
the old woman, exclaiming:
“Take it and get out, you old
haridan of thunderation.”
The old lady carefully laid
her nickel on the counter, and,
as she did so,remarked toCurt:
“You are the politest and ac
; comodatin’est young man I ev
i er seed, and I’ll call again
i
| when I want some more soap.
