GIRL DIED JUNE 11
Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse
Buelin Dies; Funeral From
First Baptist Church
It is said that “Death loves a
shining light.”
Again this seemed verified when
on June 11, 1934, just as the sun
was rising over the horizon, Peg
gy Beulin, age 18, the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Beulin of
Elkin, answered the heavenly
summons and her pure sweet
spirit took its flight to the home
above—the land of perpetual sun
shine and flowers.
“Where no evil thing cometh
To despoil that which was fair.
Where she with angels watcheth
and waiteth
For loved ones “over there.”
Peggy was a devoted and obe
dient child, the joy of her fond
parents’ hearts, loved and cher
ished by a number of brothers
and sisters and a host of relatives
and friends.
She was a member of the East
Elkin Sunday school and before
she bade her friends good-bye she
asked them all to meet her in
heaven where there would be no
parting. Failing health prevented
her from continuing her studies
at school. She was a patient suf
ferer, all the time bright and sun
ny. Everything was done for her
recovery that loved ones, a faith
ful doctor and an untiring nurse
could do, but God took her, and
we bow in humble submission
knowing that he knew best.
We sorrow not at those who
have no hope for they that be
lieve on the Son hath everlasting
life. If we believe that Jesus died
and rose again, even so them also
which sleep in Jesus will God
bring with him.
Our hearts are comforted for we
know just ahead is the glad res
urrection. Weeping may endure
for a night, but joy cometh in the
morning.
Funeral services were conducted
!rom the first Baptist church by
Rev. Eph Whisenhunt, assisted by
Rev. J. L. Powers. Appropriate
music was furnished by the mem
bers of the L. H. C. Club and a
special number, “Have Thine Own
Way”, was sung by the club quar
tet composed of Estelle Powers,
Dorothy Penfield, Myrtle Young
and Ruth Reece.
Active pallbearers were: Walter
Minish, Lefty Southard, Charlie
Gough, Carley Lail, Ralph Ray
and Noah Pardue.
The flower bearers were mem
bers of the L. H. C. Club and her
Sunday school class of East Elkin
church. The beautiful floral tri
bute bespoke of the love and es
teem of a host of friends.
The deceased is survived by her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Beul
in, and the following brothers
and sisters: Mrs. DeWitt Wishon,
of Rural Hall; Misses Ina, Ruth,
Ruby and Lucille Buelin, Roy,
Harley and Roscoe Buelin, of Elk
in.
“ ’Neath sunshine and crystal
drops from June skies,
In tears, we laid the loved one
so fair.
In a flower-covered mound 'till
she arose,
To meet the Lord and loved
ones in the air.”
JOKES
“Aunt Sue, if you had your-life
to live over again, what would you
do?”
“I’d get married before I had
sense enough to decide to stay an
old maid.”
Nice Old Lady: “Don’t you
know you shouldn’t play strip
poker?”
Flapper: “Oh, it’s perfectly all
right. It’s not gambling, really.”
Nicie Old Lady: “What?”
Flapper: “No, you see we get
our clothes back.”
FIRST AID
Chauffeur: “This, madame, is
the hand brake—it’s put on very
quickly, in case of an emergency.”
Madame: “I see—something
like a kimono.”
KNEW THE SYMPTOMS
Wife: “John, dear, I felt I must
come to the office. I suddenly
had such a longing to see you.”
Husband: “And did you bring
the bill as well?”
Impersonator
Judge — What’s the charge
against this, officer?
Officer—Vagrancy, your honor.
He was loafing around a street
corner all the afternoon.
Judge—Ah—impersonating an
officer; 30 days in jail!
George: “Bill, did you ever
hear of anyone getting paid to
stop singing?”
Bill: “No, George, why? Don’t
people like to hear you sing?”
Judge: “You say you didn’t
steal the rug?”
Frank: “No sir, your honor.
The lady gave it to me and said
beat it!”
Just Like A Mule
Yancey—How did old Lete Dis-
muke die?
Cuthbert—He kicked a mule
and the mule returned the com
pliment.
Take Her Now
Mrs. Goodman (listening to ba
by’s cries): “What a sweet-
toned voice she has, dear! She’ll
make a splendid singer. We must
send her to Italy and have her
voice cultivated.”
Mr. Goodman (trying to sleep):
“Send her now.”
THE BRIDGE YOU’LL NEVER
CROSS
It’s what you think that makes
the world
Seem sad or gay to you;
Your mind may color all things
gray
Or make them radiant hue.
Be glad today, be true and wise.
Distinguish gold from dross;
Waste neither time nor thought
about
The bridge you’ll never cross.
There’s useful work for you to do.
For hand and brain and heart;
There’s urgent human service,
too.
In which to take your part.
Make every opportunity
A worth-while gain, not loss;
The best is yours, so do not fear
The bridge you’ll never cross,
If life seems drab and difficult.
Just face it with a will;
You do not have to work alone.
Since God is with you still.
Press on with courage toward the
goal.
With Truth your shield emboss;
Be strong, look up and just ignore
The bridge you’ll never cross.
—Grenville Kleiser.
