V-E DAY Ob this, the first V-E Day i suy, we pay tribute to thoae who fought the enemy on land and sea and in the air, to those who fought just aa bravely and valiantly on the home front, and to our war dead. Especially do we honor those who gave their livee during the long con flict so recently ended? those stal wart heroes whose supreme sacrifice brought Victory and the promise of permanent Peace to a bleeding and Buffering world. , Victory will mean nothing, how ever, if we fail to make a peace that will endure. Count all the lives, that were lost, bodies that were maimed and handicapped and Wood that was shed; to them all add the mothers' tears, the orphans' cries and the empty arms of the bereft; all these together loudly plead that the passing of the . years since Victory in Europe was first proclaimed shall find Peace made impregnable by the united ef forts of all of us?a united people, dedicated to the solidarity of the united nations. 1 MEMORIAL DAYS Two Manorial Days in May for those who died in battle and asked nothing in return. Their memory is sacred, and so we honor them on Decoration Day with floral offerings placed on their graves to say, "here lies a hero." ' Their names are engraved deep in the hearts of families and friends? It is for us the living to remember, along with their names, that for which they died ... a way of life rich because of its four freedoms... from fear and want, of speech and worship. In memory of those brave men of all previous ware, we bow ou^ heads in silent meditation, give thanks for their courage and press on towards an enduring peace. SHE SHALL BE PRAISED Thursday, May 2, marked the pass ing of Mrs. Nannie Yelverton Lewis, another Southern gentlewoman of the old school, who will be "greatly missed in this community. A devoted wife and loving' mother, possessing remarkable energy, and endowed with a compassion worthy of the Master, whose footsteps she followed so faithfully, Mrs. Lewis had a place in her heart and home for the motherless and fatherless,- and found time to minister ti> white and colored alike, for miles around until stricken five yean ago. Even, then, her loving interest and concern for others was continued and extended through her dutiful children, and the Christian fortitude with which she bore her long illness was a source of constant inspiration to those attend ing and visiting at her bedside. "Flavour is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall he praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the galea." Prov. 31: 30-31. , ? i Whenever you want to do some good work just go ahead with the enterprise and forget about forming an organisation. Two women can talk aa fRng about a hat aa two men about a political issue, and with aa many angles and sidelights.

The idea of a universal Mother's Day is attributed to Anna M. Jarvis, whoee mother did sudh excellent work among Civil War needy in Harrison County, Va. la 1906, the first an niversary of her mother's death, Miss Jarvis envisioned the idea of dedicat ing a day to all mothers. She wrote thousands of letters and interviewed thousands of people in this connec tion. Finally, on May 10, tion was passed fax Congress to the second Sunday in May a national holiday, "Dedicated to the Memory of the beet mother in the world, your mother." The following year, on the second Sunday fax May, the first Mother's Day was observed throughout the United States. MOTHER From early mom till set of sua . Her tysks of lore am never done; She shares our hopes, our dreams, our plans Believes in us and undentands; And even when we're far apart She keeps our interests at heart; Her life's a perfect symbol of Enduring and unselfish love." j. TO MOTHER Yoir painted no Madonnas, On chapel walls in Rome, Bat with a touch divine You lived one in your home. You wrote no lofty poems That critics counted ait, V But with a nobler vision You lived them in your heart You carved no shapeless marble To some high soul design. But with a finer sculpture, You shaped this soul of mine, ' You built no great cathedrals, ' - That centuries applaud, But with * grace exquisite, Your life cathedraled God. Had I the gift of Raphael, Or Michael Angelo, Oh, what a rate Madonna My mother's life would show. ?T. W.Tessenden. (In memory of our mother, Mrs. George E.

The warmer weather will put more automobiles- on the highways, they will produce more wrecks, with more deaths and injuries and so it will be in order for you to be v*rf careful while driving, if you value life or limb.
