Mrs. Bryant united with the Meth- odist church at the age of nine years, later uniting with the Christian church in which faith she died Aug- ust 8, 1912. She had been in failing health for two years and had been confined to her bed since January 4 of this year. She was a most patient sufferer, waiting for the summons, “Child, come home.” - Mrs. Bryant’s life was one of the most beautiful, that of a devoted wife and mother. She was an earnest Christian and on every suitable oc- casion her voice was heard in the Master’s cause. She was continually doing good in her quiet, unassuming way, and her influence was always for righteousness and purity of life. She will be greatly missed, not only by her relatives, who have the sympathy of the entire community in their sorrow, but by her many friends who knew and loved her. The memory of her beautiful life will help us all live nearer the Master, knowing that aftera while we may |follow her to that home where part- ings are no more.

Short Course in Dairying. | The rapid development of the dairy {and creamery interests in Missouri has created a demand for a large number of trained men who under- stand every detail of the business. To meet this demand the College of Agriculture has arranged to give a special short course in dairying. The ‘course will train men to manage creameries and large private dairies. It will include the elements of dairy- ing; milk production, testing milk, cream and butter; dairy bacteriology; creamery buttermaking and ice cream making. The term will open on January 6, 1913, and continue for seven weeks. It will be given regularly each winter hereafter. For particulars concern- ing the course write to C. H.

C., Aug. 12.—The Senate to-day, after five hours’ work on the postoffice appropriation bill, reached an agreement to vote on the measure at 4 o’clock to-morrow. Discussion of the bill was enlivened late in the day when Senator La Follette was speaking on a House | provision, granting to employes of the postal service the right to organice, deliberately charged the Officials of the postoffice department with rifling his mail in an attempt to delve into an investigation he was making into the postal service. The Wisconsin senator declared that his mail had been ‘‘subjected to an espionage that is almost Russian in character,”” and he showed to the senators a bundle of letters which he said had been tampered with.
