Jordan James C. Jordan, age 83. died at his home 10 miles northeast of St. Paul, Friday, Sept. 26, at 7 p.

In. after a short illness of pneumonia. Mr. Jordan was a highly respected and influential citizen and among the earliest settlers in the county. He came here from Mississippi shortly after the Civil War, and had resided on the place where he died for the last 60 years.

Mr. Jordan followed the occupation of a farmer and stockman most of his life. He served through the Civil War in the Confederate army under General Forest. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge at Aurora, many vears ago before its suspension. Burial was held Sunday at the Ogden cernetery, one of the largest congregations ever seen at the cemetery, attending.

Rev. Jake Drake of Huntsville delivered the funeral sermon. Mr. Jordan is survived by his wife Elizabeth; one daughter, Mrs. Martha Marrs, of Pettigrew; five sons, Henry, Centrahoma, Claud and Clint, Panen, George of Dutton, and Clarence, who lives op the old home place.

Encouraging Courage Not many of us are brave when we are alone. We naturally run away from dan-1 ger. Two things help us to be bold: the eves of our bet-: ter selves, and the eyes of other people. When I was in college we debated, "'Do we run because we are scared, or are we scared because we run? I have seen both the affirmative and the negative sides awarded the decision on different occasions; but perhaps college debates, like all arguments, never settle anything. Whatever may be the genesis of cowardice, everyone knows how it feels to be afraid.

Fear is a temporary palsy over our faith faculties. We cannot create anything of value while possessed of fear. Scaring children into cowardice always cripples in them something Divine. Parents sO often grow angry and ride roughshod over their children. It mav relieve the para ents, but it instills the princia: ple of cowardice into the children, and they are forever mained.

We had a school teacher once who whipped within an inch of his life an awkward POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS The Air is authorized to announce the candidacy of Dewey Class, regular Republican nominee, for re-election to the office of County and Probate Judge of Madison county. General Election November 4th, 1930. country boy for DO offense whatever. Fear of that teacher caught his mind, and the success mood died in him. I loved this boy and when I heard the blows upon his fine, clean.

big body, I lost my respect for that teacher. Twenty years after that day heard that boy, then a grown man, say, "I have never been able to get over a certain cowering that took possession of my mind under his brutal blows." We grow in an atmosphere of confidence, but we shrivel in the air of distrust. More than any force of value in the home is the constant assertion of mutual faith and belief in each other. "Perfect love casteth out fear." I had this thing brought forcibly to me recently. A nurse at the Children's Hospital had a littie patient who, from every indication, ought to be walking.

She asked me to tell the little fellow to take a step. He had walked until infantile paralysis had attacked him, and now that he was better he was afraid to try to walk. With all the faith in him I could summon, and with all the encouragement 1 that 1 could put into my voice, I said, "Now, vou come over to me. I know you can." He balanced himself on his wabbly little legs and staggeringly crossed the room. From that dav on his progress was very rapid.
