He seemed to possess all the gsg esentials of a successful and honor- 5.01 able life. He was not a genius, unless I 458 we accept as an accurate definition of 4.57 genius the unusual capacity for hard 456 work. We do not claim for him supe- rior intellectual gifts or such bril- liancy of natural endowment as would have enabled him to shine in the pro- fessional or political world. But that he was furnished well with those qualities which make solid mannhood and genuine worth — the qualities which, more than any other, are es- ~and the building of a permanent, advancing Christian civilization, no one can question ‘who knew him. 1. He was industrious—idleness is a curse. is a cardinal virtue. Bdward was s0 ng that he seemed incapable of leaving a task until it was thoroughly and satisfac- torily done—done so well as to meet very nearly his own conceptions of a perfect piece of work. He was appar- ently eager to do more than his em- ployer could reasonably expect of him, rather than less. This is & rare char- acteristic, Rut invaluable to him who has it, and of the chief requisites to & high order of success in any field of effort. 2. He was honest. He oould be trusted. His word was good. His promise could be relied upon. He would not cheat. He would not de- celve. His word was as binding in bis conscientious thought as his bond. ‘Who can_ o e the <wvalue of this trait? The more I see of life the deeper and keener is my appreciation of simple honesty. It is the one fun- dament essential of genuine charac- ter. ithout honesty, sincerity, no man can bly be what the world ‘has a right to expect him to be. Abra- bam Lincoln’s honesty did more than him in the world’s truest and grandest mmen.” Young Chappell was honest. 3. He was studious. In spite of the huge hindrances that constantly con- fronted him, he determinedly perse- vered in the pursuit of knoweldge and the development of his mental powers It iz greatly to his credit that against such odds he pushed forward in his studies until he was within a few weeks of graduation from our splen- did Free Academy. There never was a time when a good education is so imperatively demanded of youth as In our own day. 4. Edward was self-sacrificing. He was not absorbed in his own personal Six-hours after high water it is low tide, which is followed by flood tide. GREENEVILLE C. H. Hobson Memorial Day Speaker at Wilbraham—Whist Party—Notes.

Thus early the dis- cipline of self-sacrifice was imposed upon him and it never seemed unduly irksome. Blessed is he who allows such an_experience to have its legiti- mate influence in the moulding of his character. 5. Edward Hved a clean, pure life. I am credf informed that he in- duiged in no habits, no evil prac- tices. In this he was. an example worthy of imitation by all who care for the best things. 6.

Local friends of his brother, Albert Tinkham, of Providence, will be sorry to learn that his leg has re- cently been amputated, the result of an :n.jury to his foot received last win- present at Sunday school.

It is no insig- nificent victory for one of his meager 0] les to have accomplshed so m in so sghort a time. To haveé lived so well in spite of huge obstacles that his career reflects great credit vpon himself, his relatives and friends, his schoolmates and the edu- cational institution of which he was an honored member, upon the church he loved and indeed upon the race of mankind—to have lived thus nobly is worth the heavy price he paid and will give him infinite satisfaction to all eternity.

Her own life had seemingly more than its legitimate share of tragic experiences. Suddenly some 18 years ago there came to her the sad intelligence that both her hus- d and brother were drowned while fishing. With her two little ones she wag compelled to take up the burdens of her desolate life and bear them as best she could. She enjoyed the well- earned reputation of being an indus- trious, hard-working and. uncomplain- ing, faithful Christian woman. In her dying hour Aliss Frances E. Willard exclaimed “How beautiful to be with God!™ Mrs, ell looked into a very uninviting future, insofar as her temporal prospects were. concerned, after Edward, her main support and comfort, was taken away. Let us be- lieve that she is much better off now and realizes “how beautiful it is to be with God” in the home eternal.
