PAGE FOUR PAGE FOUR Mrs. Tuttle Again Elected President Os Cemetery Group Annual Meeting: Held Thursday at Home of Mrs. W. S. Privott At the annual meeting of the Reaver Hill Cemetery Association, held on March 30, at the home of the treasurer, Mrs. W. S. Privott, the following officers were re-elected: Mrs. R. F. Tuttle, president. Mrs. E. S. Norman, vice-president. Mrs. C. E. Kramer, secretary. Mrs. W. S. Privott, treasurer. The financial report was present ed by the treasurer and approved by ' the Association, as were also other reports of officers and committee chairmen. After due consideration, it was decided to hold the annual meetings somewhere around the first of the year, instead of in March, as here- j tofore. i The collectors for 1944 are: Miss! Lou Brown,. Mrs. X. E. Copeland, | Mrs. J. M. Elliott, Mrs. R. C. Hol-j land Mrs. E. S, Norman, Mrs. D. M.j Reaves and Mrs. L. W. Stallings. As the condition of the cemetery j depends entirely upon the contribu-i tions of the lot holders, it is hoped! that all who possibly can will become members of the Association or else! ■undertake the care of their lots themselves. Mrs. R. F. Tuttle and Mrs. E. S. Norman are in charge of the '*ork in the cemetery and have been active in this since, through their efforts, the Association was founded in 1914. Only those who recall the condition of the cemetery at that time can ap preciate their efforts. Mrs. J. C. Dai! has agreed to serve •on this committee and will assist: Mrs. Norman doting the summer 1 months. The Association is very fortunate in securing Mrs. West as superinten dent of the cemetery. For she sees that it is well-kept and take* a real personal interest in the woric there.

Close to half a million ton* are already here, delivered or ready for delivery. Another 200,000 tons are expected and every effort is being made to get it here in time for this season’s crops. If shipping estimates hold, there will be about as much Chilean nitrate for top and side dressing as last year. But because all of it is being distributed under the govemmenf* allocation program, it may be impossible to supply all sec tions in the same proportions as last year. If you cannot gat Chilean nitrate when you want it remember the inconvenience is only f temporary—one of many dislocations due to war. Chilean nitrate is here in substantial quantity, but, like every good soldier, it goes where it is told and when it is told by the government.

IN MKMORIAM In loving memory of our husband < and father, Alexander Copeland, who | departed this life one year ago today, April 4, 1943. V Our wandering thoughts take us back j To this day, one year ago, When you were called from us ] And we had to let you go. j We often sit and think of you, I And of the way you died; j That you could not say good-bye, Before you closed your eyes. The blow was hard, the shock severe Although we knew your death was near. Only those who have lost can tell The pain of parting without farewell. Although your soul is now at rest, And free from care and pain; This world would seem like Heaven, If we had you back again. You will never be fprgotten, Never will your memory fade Sweetest thoughts will always linger Around your new and peaceful grave. We pray that you are in that Heavenly home on high, And we are hoping to meet you there In that sweet oye and bye. —Wife, Son and Daughter. ■ That Na<3<?in<3 I Backache May Warn of Disordered Kidney Action Modera life with lte harry end worry.
