greatest dignity yet she wax of a
cheerful disposition and had a
sense of humor which made her
companionable and lovable She

melancholy but was happy and
full of life and was sunshine in
her home
She was especially fond of her
mother end made of her a compnn
ion which so few girls do She
was always charitable towards
others never criticizing and finding
fault with them
As a friend she was far above
the average friend always loyal
and true and giving in her silent
U way thestrength and synipntln
n her noble character She left the
q richest inheritance of sweet mem
oriiN to those who were her
nj
friends

The above article and poem was
furnished un by the dearest friend
of the deceased and who probably
outside of the immediate family
knew more of her many good
traits and her lovable character
than did anyone else in this
w tilIll
Misn Rodgcrs proved to us and
the entire Herald force when she
worked in this office in the year
able and honorable characters to
be found anywhere Her quiet
unassuming disposition won for
her many real friends
The many friends of Miss
Louise join wftlj the family in
their bereavement but all niny
rest assured that her character
was Mich Hull she went into the
great beyond with a trust that
made her fearless of the deatli

NEWS ABOUT OUR
PROPOSED RAILROAD
In its effort to forestall the
construction of the Texas Panhandle
mid Gulf Railroad the Fort
Worth and Denver road through
its counsel 1 II Harwise Jr at
the hearing before the State Railroad
Commission today tried to
induce W J Noonan of Chicago
engineer of the Plains road to
admit thnt the proposed line is
marooned at Seymour 40 miles
from Fort Worth But Noonan
smilingly wouldnt admit any
such thing and instead pointed I
out that the new line would have
three ways of entering Fort
Worth
The promoters may build dir
cct from Seymour or use the Gulf
Texas and Western to Jacksboro
and the Rock Island from thereon
or use the Gulf Texas and
Western to Perrin and from that
point use the Mineral Wells

INTERNATIONAL GOLDEN
RULE SUNDAY
Dallas Texas Nov 27 The
success of the observance of International
Golden Utile Sunday
December 2nd in Texas depends
entirely on the willingness of the
people of this gieat State to prnc
tiee a little selfdenial and fasting

statement of Charles L Sanger
Statu Chairman It does seem
that when a person has enjoyed
a bountiful repast Thanksgiving
Day which a large number of
Texans will do only a few days before
Golden Rule Sunday that

such a person would be willing to
make the small sacrifice neeess

day said Ml Sanger Such
course would be highh benefieil
to the individual at any time he
