M. all that wfis mortal of .Miss Edna Mae Wilson passed peacefully . away to enter the great .Kingdom beyond to live with ' and the angels forever. Edna ' the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. Wilson, of Cojd Spring, ' and was within just a few days of be- ■ twenty years of age. She died in father's arms, and just before J passing away, said 'td her father: is Heaven! ■ It is beautiful I and I am 'going home." She was 1 ready to go, and to witness such a ■ peaceful patient sufferer, who with- 1 to the last what she passed thru 1 very unusual indeed. ' Miss Wilson was a member of Cold Presbyterian Church for sev- '■ years and a fithful attendant- of 1 Chapel Sunday school. Rev. Mr. 1 Keller, pastor of Tabernacle M. E. Churth, preafched the funeral sermon, I services being held in old Brick 1 church, Sunday last, assisted by Rev. ' Dyke. In conclusion, Mr. Keller 1 said: ' "Friends I wish I could have taken with me as I went into this young ' sick Yoom a little over three weeks ago. 1 went there not feeling very well as 1 was discouraged and a 1 little £lue. As I was ushered into presence, I felt a change at once. 1 sick rooms are not "happy and This room had a party in it who was happy in spite of her sufferI thought how happy \v£> should wheli one can undergo suffering and still be happy. "I asked Miss Edna if 1 could do anything for her and if she was restin Jesus. She said she was. She did not need to tell me that — I kilew While sufferng -pain her thoughts of her parents — sister and sweet ! heart. It tpkes courage — yes love of in one's heart while suffering ! pain to think of others. After a prayer I, went out feeling a hapI pier and better man, because by the grace of God I had been permitted to enter Into the room. Fully expectto retupi within a short time. In than- three weeks her soul had flown. "Friends — can you sit here in the presence of this body this afternoon I without feeling that life,is short even I at its best. Tlyit is why I have been urging you real strongly uring the past fejv weeks to mak,e your calling and election sure by being found in | Christ, when the call and summons "I did not haye the privilege of beUng present during the last five hours j of her life but it was WJJnderful. Reaher stay was short with her I loved ones aiound her — she called them to. ber — all were feeling sad except- this youiig • lady. Looking up into mother's face — filled with tears — she said: "smile — mother smile" — •harjl thing to do when one's heart is breaking." She told them what she saw — the Heavens opened beckoning her. to corned One could not refuse a call li^ that. Kissing hor loved ones — bidding them join her later — she hastened to accept the invitation. tfas willing to -be absent from the body to be present with the Lord. "The majority of you present have the privilege of knowing her than I but friends it is impossible, to have known her. and been privileged to converse with i^er without, resolving to live a better life. she was one of God's children and she was— for God took her." Members of her Sundfcy school class acted as honorary pall bearers,, each one carrying a beautiful floral em-

blem. Theae girts were: Floreac* I Catherine McPherson; Gladis 1 Ludwig, Martha Teal, Julia Hoffman, Hoffman, Anna Elliott and Mrs. LilHan Smith. The active pall beari ers were: Irene MjPherson, Jennie q Reba Baker, Alice Rea, Ruth Swain and Grace Learning. The music, which was so appropriate, consisted of solos by Mrs. Belle* Mat- a thews' and Miss Dyke and choir. Miss Hoffman arranged the t] music. Miss. Edna leaves to mourn her loss, W fattier, mother and one little sister, Roberta, and a host of rela- j ' tivea. She has gone, and while we w j miss, her it was God's will be done. The community has lost a beautiful Christian character, in the death of Edna Wilson, where she lived ** and was held in such high esteem. b Miss Wilson, had she lived to recover 0 from the malady with which she died, ^ ' would have been magged in a short [.time to Mr. Melborne $chellenger, of '' [ferma, the engagement having been " | announced some time ago. "As the evening sun is getting I Oft tim^s^s we sit alone, ' our heartsthere comes a feeling C j v Wishing Edna tb come home. L Our home is sad and lonely; L How we miss her smiling face, E j But she left us to remember L | That no one can take her place."I Dearly loved, and sadly missed by MOTHER and -SJSTER.

I Hall, of the Scouts proved to be a t regular tartar in the way that he < played around the All-Stars. Kvi- j dently the dark horse upheld the rep- t ulation of the Scout-s and was prepar- < ed in real "Man of War" jftvle by t scoring six points for the Scouts, t Chambers and L.
