For several year* she suffered, but after having done all that loving hand* could do. ahe gently closed her eyes in peaceful slum ber, to awake in the restful arm* or Jesus. The funeral services were held at the home, and her body wa * laid to rest in the Flat Rock Bap tist Church cemetery. The serv ices were conducted by her pastor Rev. H. O. Baker, assisted by Rev. Chat. B. Howard. The pall bearer* were her grand-children. The floral tribute was beautiful showing the love of her many friend*. Those who are left to grieve their Iom are, her dear husband, Joe Timberlake. two sons, J. J. S. Timberlake and Tom Timber lake. Bight . grand children and nine great-grant children bealde* a host of friends. Many are the friends who will miss her familfer face, her pleas ant voice and bright smile*, but we must remember that we, too, will have to wo** the bar that ahe haa crossed. We must not weep for bar, but we must so lire that wo skill meet her in that far bo yokd.

Seaboard To Offer Free Pick-Up And Delivery Service Another forward step in Iran*-! portation will be taken by the Seaboard Air Line Railway when on February 1st. or as soon there after as possible, tree pick-up'and delivery nervire for less-than-car ?load freight will be established over its system and its subsidiary railways. The effect of this serv-j Ice is that the railroad will furn-j ish drayage service to collect and deliver less-than-carload freight without cost to shipper and con signee. If shipper or consignee prefers to perform bis own truck ing service to or from Seaboard freight stations, an allowance of five cents per hundred pound* will be made to such shipper or consignee. This pick-up and delivery serv ice is designed to facilitate the use of rail transportation by en abling the public to deal with only one transportation agency which becomes responsible tor a com-! plete railroad service from the consignor's door to the consignee's door. This service becomes effective in Louisburg along with othe" places. HOGS PAY WELL It always pay* to get good pi Kb to raise good bogs, says a writer Jo the TIM US, because I tried It.
