Quality
in Lumber
counts for much more than its
initial cost That is proven by the
fact that when you buy lumber
here, you won't have to buy more
for a long time to come. Sound
and thoroughly seasoned as it is,
once it is put up it is there to stay
without the need of repair or replacement.

To the Public.
I take this method of expressing ap
preciation, of the kindness the Demo
cratic voters of the county have shown
me in the recent primary election. I
acknowledge with a greatful heart the
large vote you have given me for a see
end term as Trustee. I have been com
pelled through disability and the press
of duty to remain in my office, and
your courtesy and support is therefore
doubly appreciated. I have nothing
but the kindest regard for everyone,
whether you voted for me or not, and
will in the future as in tho past .use my
very best efforts to make you a faithful
and worthy servant.
Respectfully,
J. H. Sanders.

HICKMAN GOES DRY.
Church Bells Ring and Whistles
Blow When Vote Announced.
Hickman, Ky., Dec. 6. The drys
won in to-day's election over the wets
by a majority of 8i?G votes, the drys
getting 1,547 votes and the wets 6C1.
The polls opened at 6 o'clock this morn
ing and closed at 4. When the polls
opened this morning the church bells
began ringiDg and the different bells
rang every hour until 12 o'clock, and
when it was found at 5:30 this after
noon that the county had gone dry the
fire whistles blew for several minutes,
carrying the tidings to every one, the
church bells also riDging. West Hick
man school children paraded the streets
this morning, singing and distributing
dry tags. Prayer service was held from
9 to 12 this morning by ladies. Not a
single precinct in the county went wet,
the votes tyiDg in West Hickman, with
not a single wet vote cast in Madrid
Bend district, which came as a thunder
bolt, as that precinct was expected to
go wet. The grert majority is largely
due to the untiring efforts of the ladies
of the W. C. T. U., who. have worked
for weeks raising money to get good
speakers here and making speeches in
every precinct. Hickman went dry
about 17 years ago,' and this may pos
gibly be the last election of this kind
that will ever be held here.

the loss of some very valuable farm ac
cessories and feedstuff.

Card of Thanks.
To my many (riends in Obion County:
A a vnnr flotintv Court Clerk I wish to
extend to each and all my heartiest
thanks for the endorsement given me
in the Democratic primary of eaturaay.
T fArtainW Mtppm it an honor to have
led the ticket with the many estimable
gentlemen who were in this primary.
Yours as ever,
- C. S. Tali.ky.
came, and claimed : their only cbuia.
little William Buser, age nine years.
He was sick abou eleven days with
carlt't fever of whirl he died. All that
William Buster Cook.
As dark clouds Va t0 gather and
darken the sky on ibe afternoou of the
fifth of December about 3 o'clock the
home of Mr. and XJrs. John Cook was
darkened by the shadow of death which
came, and claimed : their only child
li
He
scarlt'
but in vain. God saicome to a world
where there is no pain nd where death
will nevor come. ,
It was sad to part with ine we loved
so dear, but angels IdVedriim best; so
weep not dear mother : d father for
your loss is heaven's gai4 Upon tho
eternal shore little Bast will watch
and till Jesus calls for you.1 '
A place is vacant now a school, &
face is rnis.sed at church, i chair is
empty in his home which He loved so
dear, but his place is filled in heaven
that no other but he could fill. Dear
mother, father and cousin Myrtle, weep
not for you have not wept alone, but
let us look beyond the sorrow, where
no parting words are known, to Him
that giveth and taketh life away.
I seem to see him, as in days past
and gone, playing in the yard with
golden curls around his shoulders.
Again I see him standing by an organ
singing "Bring the Little Ones to
Jesus." But alas, the past is gone, so
put away his little play things wet with
mother's tears; how she'll miss him,
uone can tell, every day every hour.
A. Friend.
