that they will abide by it also
keep a record of the sale and
promise to follow the pledge.
Keep a record in book form
same as you are now keeping
the sugar sales. If this is fol
lowed to the letter will enable
us not to go back to the plan

the pledge and mailing them
to me.
PLEDGE
I hereby certify that I have
ground or have had ground at
the mill for use in my family
and have in my posession
-pounds of corn meal and
-pounds of
which have not been balanced

flour.
I pledge myself in using
flour to conform to the pro
gram of the United States

in the baking of all bread at
least one pound of substitutes,
to every four pounds of flour
or if rye is used, two pounds

OBITUARY
Jewel Callie Flippo was born
Sept. 29th 1895, was married
to II. E. Seymour April 5, 1916.
To this union was born two
sweet babes, Murl and Little
James. Sister Jewel professed
faith in Christ in 1915 in a
union meeting1 conducted by
Rev. J. R. Harp and joined the
Missionary Baptist church in
which she lived a consistent
member. To know Jewrel was
to love her. She was always
happy and made those around
her happy.
October the 17th, 1918, the
death angel visited Brother
Seymour’s home and claimed
Jewel for its victim.
While the home is made
dark, Heaven is made brighter
as she has gone to live with
God, the One she loved and
served. During her illness
she could see by the eye of
faith, over the tide of life’s
wonderful sea was a bright
mansicm waiting for her. Re
alizing soon she was to dwell
in that beautiful clime where
God and her Reedeemer live.
Let me say, Brother Henry,
and loved ones as pastor and
neighbors pastor, be faithful
and when our blessed Lord
shall come with His Holy One
in mid air and call for His
church we who are living shall
be caught up to meet him and
loved ones
So look unto Him who can
raise these vile bodies. He is
the great helper in time of
need. May God bless and
keep you all is your humble
servants prayer.
KEV. It. W. MARLAR.
