She had been very sick but hope was held for her until a day j or two before she died. She re-! mained conscious to the end. She was a daughter of the late , Mr. D. E.„and Mrs. Julia Rives, being j born March 13, 1883, therefore was 46 years, 6 months and 22 days old.' She was married to Paul L. Elkins t on December 25, 1906, and to this' union were born 7 children, six boys I I and one girl, five of which survive, j four boys and one girl. Two boys, I David Jackson and Francis, died while small. i Mrs. Elkins was converted and joined Rives Chapel Baptist church in girlhood, but later moved her mem bership to Sandy Branch Baptist .church, where she remained a faith , ful member until death. It can truth fully be said, there has never lived a more consecrated Christian life than she lived. I recall when her son Francis died how submissive she was to the will of God. She relied upon the strbng arm of God. She made mention of a song which was sung at his funeral: “Just When I Need Him Most,” expressing that He was near to her that she could say God’s will be done, not mine. The funeral was held from Sandy Branch Baptist church, being con ducted by her pastor, Rev. E. W. Byerly, of Bonlee, assisted by Rev. j L. M. Chaffin, of Goldston, both J speaking of faithfulness at their 1 church services. She not only will be 1 missed at her church, but at others . as well, for she took part in the : worship wherever attended. She is survived by her husband, four sons, one daughter, one broth er, H. R. Rives, of Goldston, three half brothers, Messrs. Geo. E. and D. A. Rives, of Goldston, and C. J. Rives, Bear Creek, Rt. 2, one half! sister, Mrs. W. B. Cheek, of Rt. 1, ! Chapel Hill. There were many floral designs, which were very beautiful. The in terment was made in the church cemetery. May God, in His wise providence, comfort the bereaved in their sad hours. The surviving children are: Lin don, of Greensboro, Harold, Clar ence, Woodrow, and Pauline. Mr. Quincy Moore and Mrs. J. H. Mclver, both of Siler City, Rt. 5,; were married recently. Mr. Moore j is a son of Wesley Moore, of Siler • City, Rt. 5, while the bride is the I daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. M. F. Emerson, of Siler City, Rt. 5. We wish for them a long and happy life. Mr. John Robert Snipes, son of J. H. Snipes, of Rt. 2, and Miss Lelia Justice, of Pittsboro, Rt. 2, were married last Thursday, October 3rd. They immediately left for a bridal tour to Pilot Mountain. We join their many friends in wishing this fine couple an happy life together. Mrs. G. B. (Stella) Emerson has been appointed Postmaster here to I fill the vacancy that has existed since Rev. G. C. Phillips resigned in April, 1928, to take a rural route from Altamahaw. Mr. H. J. Elkins, of Greensboro, was a week-end visitor in the home of P. L. Elkins. j <g> On the Road to Destruction ® (From the Graham Messenger) Superintendent T. W. Andrews, of I the High Point schools, in an ad j dress before a civic club at Lexing ton a few days ago said that the J “revolt of modern youth is most fiction.” He said it was the same old youth with a few modern trim mings. Girls with dresses above their knees, painted lips and cheeks, curse and swear like a sailor, drink like a fish and the male of the species meeting them more than half way we presume is “fiction” in the eyes of this pedagogue. Part of the trouble today is not altogether with the parents. But with certain class of teachers as this High Point man pointed them out to be. If modern youth is not on the road to destruc tion then we have failed to read signs of the time aright. <s> The life of Mrs. Elizabeth Flour noy of St. Paul was saved by a trans fusion of blood given by her son.
