Departed this life March 15, 1924, about six o'clock in the evening. ! " ' To'know Conley was to love, him. While it seems hard to give him up, We feel assured our loss ishis. eternal gain, for he bid his friends and loved" "ones all good-bye and askedthem" to meet him in heaven. While it almost broke our hearts to give him up; yet we must submit to the will of an all wise Heavenly Father. that doeth all things well. In His blessed Word He tells us if we hold out faithful to the end he has a crown of life laid up for us. In my imagination I can see. Dear Conley over on that peaceful shore beckoning his friends and loved ones to follow on' to that happy home on high, where no sad parting comes and no farewell tears are shed. It seemed to me while I stood by his bed side in his last moments that the heavenly host of angels was around his bed to carry his spirit to that peaceful and happy home on high. Thank God for that dyingnigraee he gives all of his children. ; Then Conley said he wanted to see his wife one time more Some one brought her to his bed side. He kissed her good-bye and told her he wanted to be buried, at Oak Grove cemetery. .1 have stood by the bed side of a great many dying people. I never saw one die as conscious as Conley did. Just a little bit before" he died he was praying. 1 heard him say, "Dear Lord, help me to come where there' is peace." Then he said to tell all of his friends who wanted to, see him once more alive to come, and there were many broken-hearted friends who. looked at Dear Conley for the last time in this world. ,He said he wanted to see his mother once agamj T 1. 1 1 1-A 1 - .. 1 1 P i went anu urougiu ins poor uruKen hearted mother to his bed side. He made signs that he wanted to kiss her, so she bfeuved over his bed and he kissed his mother farewell. Brother Bradley and myself were conducting a revival meeting at Oak Grove when Conley professed faith in Christ. .1 tried to, preach on the second coming of Christ and th" fina separation, I remember so well just how Conley looked when he came to the altar for prayer. I shall always llldllH II1C KUUU J-.U1U iUl lUdl BCl Vilit, We humbly pray -God's richest blessings to ever rest on the bereaved family, and help them to be prepared to meet dear Conley in a better land. I am in great sympathy with his father. May God bless and save his soul. Dear Christian people' let's all make the entire family a special ob ject of prayer, that they may be an undivided family around the bright throne of God. G. A. CLOER. Oak Grove News.

CONCRETE SATISFIES AS ROAD MATERIAL Experience Has Shown that Stone and Cement Malcc a Long Wearing Hfghway. Concrete roads, properly made with good Portland cement, .offer consider able choice of basic materials, accord ing to the local market, and a satis factory long wearing road when "completed. For suburban 'and rural roads concrete is an ideal road, ma terial. Concrete consists of a mix- '. 1 ture of water, cement, sand, and gravel or stone of many varieties. Engineers call the sand part the "fine aggregate," and the pebbles or rock the "coarse aggregate." Given clean aggregates and good cement' and the road when finished will be durable, dustless, very easily maintained, and smooth. The two disadvantages, tracking and breaking at the edges, can both be overcome. Cracking, as a result of temperature changes, and stress does little or no harm if the crack-is promptly filled.
