IN MEMORIAM
(In loving remembrance of Vir
gie Mason Askew, who died Ded.
28, 1928)
Virgie, dear, you have left me,
And my eyes are still in tears.
I have missed you, yes, I missed
you,
Through all these passing years.
Days of darkness still come o’er
me,
When my days of life have fied.
But in Heaven I hope to meet you
Where no farewell tears are shed.
Your mother and daddy,
Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Askew.
IN MEMORIAM
(In loving remembrance of
Shirley Mae Finch, who departed
from us five years ago, Dec. 25th,
1936)
She little thought in leaving
home that she would never re
turn.
That she so soon in death would
sleep and leave us here alone.
To think I could not say good
bye will always bring regrets.
But the ones that loved you dear
ly are the ones who will never
forget.
She bid me no last farewell, she
said good-bye to none.
The heavenly gates opened, a
loving voice said come.
Julian Finch and family.

The world is deeply indebted to the
Gregorian calendar for the omission of
10 days in the calendar year of 1582 to
help catch up with Father Time. We
are deeply indebted to the people of
this community and it would take about
10 days of the calendar y%ar of 1942
for us to express to each of you per
sonally the gratitude we feel for your
kindness to us in 1941. So we are simply
sending this “blanket vote of thanks”
to our many friends and customers with
the wish that with New Year’s dawn will
come a brighter, happier future for you.
