IN MEMORIAL!
In memory of our dear father,
A. J. Sandeford, who passed away
one year ago, August 28, 1937.
One year has passed, dear daddy,
Since you left us here to mourn;
It made our hearts so lonely
When God called you from our
home.
Our home seems empty, we miss
you so;
Dear daddy, we were all so happy!
Why did you go?
You were always helping in every
way,
And gained many new friends day
by day.
We’ll never forget the parting—
We miss you more each day.
We can’t forget how suddenly
You were called away.
Sleep on, dear daddy, and take
your rest—
The ones who miss you most are
the ones who loved you best.
God has taken you—it was j.j.is will
But in our hearts you are living
still.
Daughter, Elmina Sandeford.
Wife and sons.
IN MEMORIAM
In memory of my dear brother,
Stanly W. Askew, who passed a
way September 30th, 1937. We
can’t forget that sad day God call
ed you up in Heaven with Him.
We miss you but God knew best.
Our home is sad and lonely with
out you and we hope to meet you
where we will never part again.
A loving sister,
Mrs. J. L. Killibrew.
IN MEMORIAM
TOMMIE C. DAVIS, JR.
On September 9, 1937, there came
a darling little boy into the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Collis Davis. This
little blossom only stayed with us
one short year, but that year will
never be forgotten. He was des
perately ill for only a few hours
and though every effort possible
was made by physicians and
nurses, their efforts met with no
avail. What a blessed thought to
know the Master was near and on
His bosom our Tommie gently pil
lowed his head and sweetly breath
ed his last.
We try to be submissive for we
realize that God called and this
beautiful budding flower was
plucked by the Angel of Mercy to
bloom in the garden of Paradise.
He leaves to mourn their loss, a
mother, father, grandparents, and
many near relatives.
“Long, long be my heart with such
memories filled,
Like the vase in which roses have
once been distilled,
You may break, you may shatter
the vase if you will;
But the scent of the roses will lin
ger around it still.”
W. T. Edwards is a patient at
the Roanoke Rapids Hospital.
Mrs. John Welch, Mr. and Mrs.
Henry Inscoe and children, Mr.
and Mrs. Cal Rose and son spent
the week-end in Faulkland.

ville is spending this week with

Diphtheria Can Be
Greatly Checked
In Infant's 1st Yr.
Raleigh.—If ~tht~ approximately
80,000 children born in North
Carolina annually were immunized
against diphtheria the first year
of their life, this would mean the
elimination of several hundred
useless deaths every twelve months
and the prevention of something
like 2,000 cases each year, which
leave our children with serious
impairments, Dr. Carl V. Reynolds,
State Health Officer, has pointed
out.
“Diphtheria immunization is 85
per cent effective in preventing
the disease”, he said, “and conse
quently, in doing away with the
dangerous sequallae which follow
in its wake, including principally
heart complications and a weaken
ed condition which, in later life,
means less efficiency in the school
room and, following that, in daliy
employment.
“Seeing that children are given
the advantage of immunization is
primarily the responsibility of the
parent. The physician can only
advise. Only last Saturday, fif
teen cases were diagnosed as diph
theria in the State Laboratory of
Hygiene, while the expectancy for
this month is already up about
