A Brilliant Intellect, a Warm Heart, and a Magnetic Personality Was Strong and Attractive, and In Bvery Respect He W as a Most Lovable Man. Again has U'eldon suffered a severe loss in ihe death of one of her oldest and best beloved citizens, in the passing of Dr. Isaac Edward Green, not only a resident of the town but the friend and physician for many years of almost the entire community. Had his death came suddenly and unexpectedly we could hardly have borne it, but his long illness of several month's duration prepared the public for the blow which came on Sunday morning, April 20th, and helped us to feel that our loss was his eternal gain. His large family were all present at the last, and loving hands soothed his every pain. He was buried on Monday evening in Cedarwood cemetery, Rev. F. Cousins, of the Episcopal church conducting the services from the M, E. church, which was used to accommodate the immense crowd gathered from all over the county to pay this last tribute to one so much beloved and who h id virtually given hts life to their service. Dr. Green was a Knight Templar and stood high in this grand and exclusive order, of which a large num ber escorted his remains to the grave and committed his body to the earth with the beautiful ritual of the order. A selected choir sang several hymns at the service at the church, and also at the grave. The floral oHerings were magnigicent and gave some token of the high esteem in which Dr. Green was held. The pall bearers were: Active J. L. Shepherd, T. U'. Long, E. Daniel, N. L. Stedman, S. M. Gary, W. H. Joyner, L. Scott. Honorary Dr. H. I. Clark, Scotland Neck; Dr. T. W. Mason, Garysburg; Dr. J. E. Shields, J. E. Bowers, Scotland Neck; Dr. Jarman, W. L. Long, Roanoke Rapids; Drs. R. A. Willis. D. U'. Talley, J. K. Hall, Richmond' Vs.; Dr. S. B. Pierce, W. J. Ward, J. E. Branch, E. Clark, H. D. Allen, A. H. Green, W. W. Wiggins, W. T. Shaw, T. W. Fenner, Raleigh; W. R. Harvey, Littleton. An extended notice of Dr. Green's life and work as pre pared by one who has known and loved him long will be given next week. THE ROANOKE NEWS Thursday, April 24, 1919. Published Every Thursday.

"The hard stages of re adjustment after the fighting, the bringing the boys home and put ting them in their civilian jobs has yet to be accomplished. The gov ernment must not be embarrassed by lack of funds at this time. Every American should give his utmost financial support that the war may be speedily concluded.'' Yes, the fighting is over. Nights no longer chill to the "zero hour" as when America's bravest nightly went over the top. Skies smile down over a worn-torn but already recuperating France, and the peas ant, blue uniform changed to smock, again goes to the plow. " but the war is not over, not yet won" here shines the people's opportunity. The boys have done their part; now it is up to America as a whole to do the rest. You say it will be a hard job. Perhaps il will so was that of the boys, but had they hesitated when they were told that it was going to be, had they flinched for a moment when it was sicci tu steel with Prussia's best, we would not now be asked for a "Victory" loan it would be only a Kfth war loan, with the fighting still going on. They did not hesitate, but fought with such heroism and elficiency that they brought Germany to her knees at least a year before the time counted on by military ex perts. And now is the lime for the vic torythe real winning of the war, or. as Major General Wood puts il, the time for "the hard stages of readjustment, ihe bringing the boys home and pulling them in their civilian jobs. " This can only be accomplished if we all pull to gether. We cannot afford lo, nor will we, let this opportunity for the final victory go by. To every one belongs a share. Buy your Vic tory Liberty Loin bond and be in mine finish. to millions in the trying There will be another world war beginning in July 1 926, ac cording to a writer in the British Journal uf Astrology. This proph et, who signs himself "Sepharial" asks for a serious hearing, inas much as he claims to have publish ed a year in advance in each case the exact date of the war of 1914 and of the cessation of hostilities. "The first phase of the next war," he writes, "will begin with Turkey whose perfidy will lead to its final overthrow in 1921-22. At this time Prussian intrigue will dominate the position in the Near East affecting Greece, Turkey, and Russia. But, according to my calculations, the great crises will not be reached until June 1 926. "In this great war which may be regarded as Prussia's counter to the war of 1914-18, the malev olent forces take their rise in Vi enna and Berlin ascend to Petro grad, penetrate through the whole of Russia and descend through the Black Sea and Turkey in Asia on to Syria and Palestine." Another allied vietory is pre dicted by "Sepharial." By a curious coincidence the armistice became effective on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. That in itself might seem to indicate that to the Kaiser eleven is a fateful number, but another coincidence gives the theory even greater weight. The eleventh verse of the eleventh chapter of ihe elev enth book of the Bible says: "Wherefore the Lord said unto Solomon, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept my covenant and statutes, which 1 have commanded thee, I will surely rend the kingdom from thee, and will give it to thy ser vant." Catarrhal Deafness Can 't be Cured hy local applications, as they cannot reach Uie diseased portion of the ear. There is only one ay to cure deafucus, ami that il hy constitutional remedies Heafuess is csused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entire ly closed, Deafness is the result, and un less the inflsmmation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous sur faces.

Will you hesitate to subscribe lib erally to the Victory Liberty Loan? TilliKi; was no lagging by the American soldier in any of the drives in France that effected vic tory, and there should be no lag ging by the people at home in the Victory Liberty Loan drive that is to effect payment for victory. GliNl'INE patriotism is patriot ism of peace as well as patriotism of war. A true patriot will do Ins best during the Victory Liberty Loan campaign.
