IN MEMORY OF MRS.
MATTIE McCOY
Matlre was horn September 23, 1900
and died Fchruary 12, 1925. She pro
fessed faith in Christ when very
young hut never enjoyed relig
ion until of late years. She leaves
to mourn her death a loving husband
and two little children. ' The oldest
one heinghree years old. The baby
' was only one day old 'when she died.
Pcsides a host of friends and rela
tive. '
She always wore a broad smile and
was kind to everybody.
She was a Christian that set her
candle on a hill where it would give
light to everybody.
The whole community was shock
ed to hear of the death, for she al-1
ways went about making friends of I
everyone.
Although we must thing of the old
saying of Hawthorne, "That what
wc have deemed chief of horrors is
transformed into the majestic and
only fulfillment 'of the purpose of an
infinite' being God, who disposes
all thing for our good.'
", We feel she. is a living witness
in the presence of God and while
there is a vacant place here one n
filled in Heaven.
It has been asked why should wc
varry over death, for all that breathe
jhall have his destiny and come and
make their beds with Him.
We are like the sailors of the sea,
knowing not what hour our time will
come.

Something over twenty years ago
T was in a town of one of our ad
joining counties and met two brothers
I had known from childhood.
The oldest was carrying some rough
heavy limber from where a building
had been torn down to another point,
receiving the wages of a common
laborer.
The younger was conducting the
business of a local capitalist,, and
seem to be 'getting 'ten dollars a day.
In early life the elder brother had
formed the habit of drinking and died
a common drunkard some years ago,
and was almost penniless.
The younger is a thrifty business
man of his town and community.
After observing such for 50 years
I believe the old saying, "That a4 tip
pler is just as sure to make a drunk
ard "as a pig is to make a hog." ' '
When will our boys and young men
learn that if they ever amount to any
thing they will have to let strong
drinks alone. x T. R. GRAY '
So many come hungry and wearing1 a frown.
' Lint the smile that they wear when they hare eaten

Makes us sure the)' will be back when next they're
in town.

Mr. ConleyY Letter
To the people of Macon County, in
reply to the dam and power plant
that is going to be established in
Franklin. I am in hopes that it will
lie the beginning of good times, both
the town and county and get business
wide awake, for it has been asleep for
a long time and then if we could get
an acid factory, -Macon County
would get on a boom .
That is what it will take to employ
the town and county 'and get money
into circulation. For if the county
people has'nt got money the town
is without also. There has been lots
of people who have left Macon Coun
ty to make a living so it is time to get
something going on for North Caro
1 in is the Garden Spot of the world.
Lets get behind and help. .
EDUCATION
Education is something every boy
and girl should strive for. The cost
of an education is nothing compared
with the money that a well educated
person can' earn. You may have
wealth and lose it ty bad manage
ment or some other one take it
from you, but when you haye an edu
cation no one can take it away.
Besides an deducation helping you
financially it help you in other ways.
There is nothins better, than heincr
able to read, write and speak correct
ly. When you go out in the. world
people judge you by what you know
and vour manners. Thereforp what-
ever we do we should strive for an
education. I LA ELLIOTT.
