About Town
BY MRS. A. H. THORPE ' ■
TELEPHONE- 832-3029 oT:
KINDNESS DURING LIFE
1 would rather have one lit
tle rose,
From the garden of a
friend;
Than to have the choicest
flowers
When my stay on earth must
end.
I would l ather have a pleas
ant word in kindness said to
me
Than flattery when my heart
is still and life has ceased to
he,
I would rather have a living
smile from friends I know are
true
Than tears shed around my
casket
When this world Eve Did a
dieu.
Bring me all your flowers
today whether pink or white
or red,
I’d rather have one blossom
now, than a trunk load when
I’m dead.

BABY BORN NEXT DOOR
BY EVA LUCAS PERRY
Sweetest little fellow,
Everybody knows;
Dent’ know what to call him
But he’s mighty like a rose.
In his crib ho squirms,
Now we see his eyes;
They look like his mother’s
But his hands are very wide.
Come folks let us judge
What this child will be;
Somewhere deep within him,
Is a hidden mystery.
Now to school he goes,
Just running like a mule;
He's not afraid of blood you see
But music keeps him cool.
The boy next door has stated,
He has all of his degrees;
Finished up in surgery,

The Daughters of Elk, Capital
City no. 310, held a Founders
Birt hd a y Celebration at
the- Home on Tuesday. Feb. Bth,
with Mrs. Mae L. Brodie as
historian. Mrs, Brodie gave a
lovely address, telling of the
humble beginnings in 1902 - the
hostility of the men and, finally,
her acclaim by the order and the
late great J. Finley Wilson.
General group singing and the
hymn honoring the founder high
lighted the evening- Mrs.
Joanne Hicks, accompanied by-
Mrs, I!. B, Walton, rendered
very effectively, "How Great
Thou Art”. At the conclusion
of the program, Daughter Ruler
Aretha King gave most inspir
ing remarks. State officials
present agreed that the program
would have an increasing publi
city campaign and would, even
by next year, take its place a
mong the outstanding annual
events for Elkdom. Madame
F. mm a Kelly, Norfolk, Va.,
founded the order in 1902.
The object of the celebration
was to increase scholarship
fund. The repast, which con
cluded the week, was typical of
the Elks Social Committee.
So now we feel at ease.
Watch his double ego now,
He's going to rearrange;
The Leo-Lton pari of him,
Will turn to something strange.

He doubled back and took the
course,
To psy-cho-an-a-lize.
Surgery was the thorn,
Music a leaf so green;
Psychiatry Is the blooming
rose,
Os which his mother dreamed.
Visit his couch and talk,
With confidence recline;
God will bless you right in there
And give you peace of mind.
Keep on buy ing, singing, lis
tening to GOOD MUSIC.

Christ does not call every
one to givefulltimetomission
ary work. Often He calls u - to
be happier wives and mothers
at the breakfast table. To.some
His call is to keep within the
family budget. Many marriages
could tie saved by the proper
answer to such a call. He calls
parents to a full time job that
the home may be a place where
children will learn of the love of
God and the wisdom of Jesus
Christ. In whatever way He
calls He asks for a listening
ear and a dedicated response.
The life giving gospel of Je
sus Christ also had a beginning.
It did not begin in a manger
in Bethlehem or even In
Christ's atoning death on the
Cross. The gospel of Jesus
Christ began in the heart of
God, the Father. He so loved
the world that He gave His only
begotten Son that all who would
believe in Him might have e
ternal life. Christ calls us to
this new life. What oeace of
mind it gives us to know Christ
well enough to talk freelv with
Him. Many of our thoughts
we feel are too personal todis
cuss with one earthly friend.
We can freely tel! Christ of our
joys, our troubles, shortcom
ings, and our desire to serve
the highest and the best. Christ
is always there to listen and
we know He understands and
will hein us. Let us pray:
Father, we thank Thee for the
peace Thou dost give us when
we open our hearts to Thee.
Teach us to listen to Thy coun
sel and discipline us to fol
low it. Help us to trust Thee
wholeheartedly. Holding no
thing from Thee, may we know
the peace the world cannot
give, but which Thou givest
to those who trust and follow
Thee. Give us more love for
Thee and one another, we pray
in the name of Jesus, Amen.
