World Day of Prayer On Friday, March S, at 2:30 p.m., members of Zion Reformed church will co-operj-^with y!*^ Community Christian '"church in "the" latter church. This is known as the "World Day of Prayer." Told Without Varnish by Ben Long Men Will Differ A LETTER received this week from the Rev. George A. Korb, a retired clergyman in Deshler, Henry county, Ohio: "Truth is truth," writes the Rev. Mr. Korb, "and right is right, how comes it then that ■ intelligent people hold such different views? Is it that they see the truth but have not the courage to act upon it, or is it that they have courage and do act upon it?" The same thought, although phrased in a different way, was put before the men's class of the Community Christian church on Sunday morning by Dr. Edgar Reilly, president of a girls' school for teachers in Midway, Kentucky. He answered it by saying that people are not narrow-minded as in the old days. It is no' longer a "terrible thing" for a young* woman to work in the South, neither is it a sign that people of one denomination are waybilled for hell by fast freight if they mingle with people holding different religious opinions. The Reilly view, I believe, is the correct view. t t t The Rev. Mr. Korb is familiar with the story of Cyrus, king of Persia, still preserved for us in the book of Ezra, which had to do with the restoration of the temple. Ezra was a scribe and the book that bears his name contains a description of his journey. Cyrus was a political diplomat. His purpose was to placate his people by subsidizing their particular form of worship. Brigham Young was a wise man. He encouraged dancing and dramatics to keep the minds of his followers miles away from the big issue. American politicians used the tariff to lull the people to sleep. Many of them are still asleep. t t WOMAN ENTERTAINER Is Coming Friday Night As Guest of Clover Leaf Class. Miss Marita Powell of Paris, Ohio, well known as a whistler and all- around entertainer, will be the guest of the Clover Leaf class, Mrs. M. A. Cossaboom, teacher, on Friday night, March 8, in the social room of The Community Christian church. Miss Powell will bring several assistants to North Canton. The meeting is called for 7:30. GOSPEUJGERS WJll Be Heard In The Community Christian Church, March 10. Jack Smith, Curby Smith, David Dowthard, Linton Bell and Uriel Wych, widely known as Gospel singers, will be heard in The Community Christian church on Sunday evening at 7:15,' March 10. The public is invited to hear them in hymns and Negro spirituals. There is no charge, although a collection will be taken to defray their expenses. o TWO GOOD SPEAKERS Mrs. C. E. Duff and Mr.s Fred Boli At Middlebranch P.-T. A. Mrs. C. E. Duff spoke to the P.-T. A. of Richville on Tuesday evening on the "British Isles School System" and will discuss the same subject before the P.-T. A of Middlebranch tonight (Wednesday). Mrs. Fred Boli has charge of the latter program, and that is quite sufficient to assure everyone an interesting evening. COMING down to our own times, the news from Washington gives birth to the belief that even in our self-assured Tightness we need to remember how much can be said for the man who adopts the opposite view. Probably Senator. Blank sees a side of the truth that we have partially missed. The complete truth is greater than either of our separate viewpoints. A larger synthesis were it possible would incorporate both. Yet that seems humanly impossible. For,-how .can.-"4Mr£*or- "no" in such cases as I have considered be harmonized ? Failing- that larger synthesis men will continue to differ, in viewpoint and in emphasis, yet in their differences should be found mutual respect. o Teaches Common Sense WHILE waiting in the library of a friend in Canton recently I glanced through a book by Dr. E. Tietjens, a Russian, and translated by Eden and Ceder Paul. The title of the work is "Desuggestion for the Attainment of Health, Happiness and Success." When I reached for the first volume I had misgivings, but so impressed did I become with the words of the author that the next day I ordered the work. It is in two volumes. Parenthetically I may say that I never borrow books from my friends. I patronize libraries, of course, but it has been my experience that when I permitted a book to leave my library it rarely found its way back. Tietjens' volumes may be on a shelf in the North Canton public library. If so, let me suggest that you read them. JN THESE days psychology is being expounded from all sorts of angles, as well as utilized for all kinds of individual and social needs; and these two volumes add much that is useful for students of the science of mind, at the same time making their appeal to the general reader. Dr. Tietjens deals with his subject from a special point of view, largely the result of his own experiences. Impoverished by the Russian revolution, he removed to Berlin. All of us, he points out, are a prey to numberless fancies that hamper our understanding, ruin our nerves, make us depressed, discontented, unsuccessful and unhappy. CO-OPERATIVE BUYING INTERESTS FARMERS Visit of G. S. Hagans,. State President of Ohio For the National Farm Union, Has Galvanized Life Into Agriculturists and They Are Organizing. LOCALS GROWING FAST The second series of Farm Union meetings for Stark county with G. S. Hagans, state president of Ohio for the National Farm Union, came to a close on Thursday night with the public meeting in Shidler school house on the Shepler church road. Mr. Hagans spoke before a capacity audience, many of whom traveled from the edges of the county to learn of the Farm Union plan of relief for farmers. A Growing Local Shidler Local No. 97 is growing rapidly. It is composed of live-wire farmers who reflect the spirit of the day that "Farm relief is the secret of getting back to normal times," and they will do their utmost to help bring- about prosperity.

WISE. o—— Good If They Can Do It From a New York broker's letter: "The pall of depression is slowly lifting; a concerted action is being indulged in to stamp out its dregs." A bit of a stunt, stamping out the dregs of a pall when it is lifting. GIRLS AT COLUMBUS Are Entitled To More Pay If They Detour For Children. Columbus, March 6.—Attorney General John W. Bricker has ruled that where the route of a school bus driver is lengthened to take care of children who reside off of the route as originally provided in the contract, the board of education may lawfully modify the contract to provide additional compensation for the driver. This question, the attorney general told the prosecuting attorney of Stark county, has been passed upon in two former opinions, from the office, one in 1930 and another in 1932. Both opinions, he said, held in effect that the board, after making a contract for the transportation of school children, may lawfully modify or change the contract if changed conditions make such action necessary. Telling of the Activities of North Canton American Legion Post No. 419 and ef the Legion Auxiliary LACK OF PATRIOTISM IS INJURING AMERICA So Declares Captain S. N. Dancy In Address Before Legion and Invited Guests. An inspiring Post meeting was held on Monday night. This was an open session, with the Legion Auxiliary, and representatives from various clubs and organizations of the community present to hear Captain S. N. Dancy speak on the timely subject of "Looking Ahead." Working with school children and being a champion of the cause of better citizenship he urged continued support of the schools of our nation, and said that the best and only way to continue the progress' of civilization is by the proper education of our children. He discussed the doubts, fears and indifference of the American people, calling for faith and courage to face the present day issues squarely and not try to "detour," as he termed it. He also- mentioned the lack of respect by our people for law and order, lack of patriotism and proper respect for the Flag of our country. Education, of the adult as well as the child, in the principles of Americanism, is the remedy, he said. His opinion is that a readjustment of our social and economic systems will be made. Discussing the work of the American Legion, the Captain stated that it is not an organization formed for a selfish purpose of benefiting only its members, but he spoke of it as a service organization, an organization helpful to the community in which it is located, to the state and to the nation as a whole. All the legislation passed for. the aid of the disabled soldiers and widows and orphans of soldiers, was proposed and sponsored by the American Legion, he said. He complimented the Legion on its non-sectarian and non-political policies. He urged a continued community service, reminding us that "a Legion Post or any other organization is only as good as its members choose to make it." The address by Captain Dancv was greatly appreciated by all those present. The Post wishes to express its appreciation to its guests for accepting the invitation to attend the meeting. The next regular meting will be held on Monday, March 18, at S:00 p.m. The tenth district conference will be held at Wooster on March 17. Dream Disturbers Lonesome Bachelor,—I dreamt last night that I was married. The alarm clock woke me up. Fed-up Benedict—I dreamt last night that I was single. The twins woke me up.

Bill Schick was awarded one of the forward berths on the Stark County Class B high school all-tournament team. This team is picked by officials and this year no school had more than one man on the first and only squad. Schick was picked because he is a good floor man and can throw plenty through the hoop. He is deserving of this honor and North Canton should feel proud of placing one of her men on this team. The Sun extends congratulations to Bill. He is a good clean sport. The personnel of this team is as follows: Joe McCombs, Canton township, forward; Bill Schick, North Canton, forward; Wellington Katler, Canal Fulton, center; Bob Rouda- boush, Marlboro, guard; Jim Bankert, Waynesburg, guard. o Easy To Prove < Fine job printing at The Sun office Sun printers know how. As The s un Sees it Without Pre j u d i c e » n —i n ■■■ ■»<>«■-. Worth a Trial WHEN the government gets through with its hog and pig buying and slaughtering campaign we suggest it begin buying up kidnappers and gangsters and crooked NRA cheaters and chislers in the cities and send them to the slaughter pens. Of course the crooks, even in prime condition, wouldn't bring as much in price as a pig, but it would serve to reduce the surplus and those remaining might die of fright. Like the NRA itself, it would he an experiment, and is worth a trial. Farm Holidays FARM holidays may not appeal to some people, but it seems to be about the only way in which the country can' be jarred into a recognition of the farmer. When a farm holiday movement is inaugurated a large majority of people view it without interest, some with amusement. If it begins to spread and the flow of foodstuffs is curtailed, they become apprehensive, and as it extends over new territory alarm becomes prevalent. It is then public officials come to their senses and strain heaven and earth to check the movement. The prospect of empty stomachs and the possible loss of votes jars them into life and activity. ! There is only one thing in con- j nection with a necessary farm strike) that does not win favor with us. That; is the withholding of necessary milk J from little children and babies. Otherwise, if cutting down on our own meals would aid the farm boys in their fight for justice we would joyfully tighten our belt and say, "GO TO IT AND STAND PAT." WORLD OF SPORTS IS ACTIVE THESE DAYS BLUE-GREEN SUN Hung In Western Sky On Tuesday Afternoon For Several Hours. A sight rarely seen here was the sun yesterday (Tuesday) afternoon as it hung in the western sky. It resembled a round ball of pale blue- green and the watcher could gaze upon it without the aid of smoked glasses. As a matter of fact gazing at the orb did not even tire the eyes. For several hours many persons watched this unusual occurrence and opinions of many shades were offered. Several persons called The Sun and asked the reason for the sun's change of face. They were told that dust storms in Oklahoma and Kansas frequently obscure the light of the sun. This writer for The Sun, when a resident of the southwest, saw the sun resemble in color shades of green, light blue, red, dark yellow and brown. Ail due to dust storms. FARMERS' INSTITUTE Two Sessions Begin This Wednesday Evening In Uniontown. Special to The Sun Uniontown, March 6—The Union- town Farmers' Institute will meet this Wednesday evening and Thursday, in Lake Grange hall. Dr. Carl Soule of Alliance, Mrs. Agnes Heil- man of Middlebranch, Mrs. Fred Boli of Canton, the Rev. T. A. Kevser of East Sparta, Lieut. U. C. Felty of state highway patrol, the Rev. G. M. I.ubold, the Rev. W. S. Adams and the Rev. C. L. Smith will speak. This Wednesday evening music by the Reformed church orchestra. Mrs. Agnes Heilman will speak on "Luther Burbank" and Dr. Carl Soule will speak on "Our German Cousins." Thursday morning Mrs. Boli will speak on "Words" and the Rev. T. A. Keyser will talk on "Rural Leadership". Thursday afternoon Mrs. Fred Boli will talk on "Tied Hands," Lieut. U. C. Felty on "State Highway Patrol System," and the Rev. Keyser on "Rural People Solving Their Own Rural Problems." Thursday evening will be a home talent program with the Rev. G. M. Lubokl of the Lutheran church talking on "The Rural Church," the Rev. W. S. Adams of the Reformed church, on "The Rural Home," and the Rev. C. L. Smith on "The Rural Community." Music, plays, stunts and tableau will be added features. Price of Liberty VIGILANCE is the price of liberty, they say. In many cases it is also the price of life. Even with the utmost vigilance there is no certainty of prolonging our existence. Constituted authority always has its enemies. Some of them are men of intelligence who act only from conviction. Others are wild eyed fanatics whose single aim in life seems to be the violent destruction of some ruler or high public official. Human nature can respect a man who is out of sympathy with a government purely from a sense of what he deems to be right and wrong, provided he remains within the bounds of law and reason. That is probably more so in this country than in any other land. But the man who does not reason, who acts only from impulse inspired by violent hatred, is a menace to every nation and a problem which no government has as yet been able to solve. o Too Many Strikes WE ARE having entirely too many strikes while the country is en- ' deavoring to work its way out of the depression. It is about lime for conservative labor union leaders to remember that they owe a duty to the government as well as to the rest of us. This is a good time to let well enough alone for a while. Communism, it has been pointed out, is in the forefront of many labor disputes. It is the dominant voice in the strikes of workers. It fosters dissatisfaction, discord and trouble of every conceivable nature. It is by such means that communistic leaders hope to stir up a revolution and exchange the Stars and Stripes for a red flag of government control of everything, including the liberties of the people themselves. DIE IN ACCIDENTS Earl F. Elmer and Robert Bruce Nelson the. Victims. Residents of North Canton and Canton were shocked when they heard the news on Thursday morning that Earl F. Ebner was burned to death on Wednesday night near the Akron airport when his automobile caught fire after it was struck by a train. Earl was 37 years of age. As a church singer he had few equals in Stark county. He is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John O. Ebner, and a wife and two small children.

Robert Nelson Killed Funeral services were held on Monday afternoon for Robert Bruce Nelson of the North Canton road, son of Mr. and Mrs. O. J. Nelson. The Rev. Dr. Melvin E. Beck, pastor of Zion Reformed church; officiated, assisted by Lee T. Lewis. Interment in Forest Hill cemetery. Robert Nelson was 17 years of age. He died in Mercy hospital on Thursday night from injuries received three j hours earlier when a Canton bus ■ backed over him at Cleveland ave. and ! 30th street N.W. | Besides his parents, he leaves two brothers, Arlan and Oscar, and three small sisters, Louise, Marcedene and Alice Kate, and several relatives. | Mrs. Duff, a neighbor, expressed the opinion of many persons when J she said: "Though we may never i know how Bruce Nelson died, there | nre many neighbors and friends who | remember how he lived. Bruce was' truly one of nature's gentlemen. Always pleasant and obliging, never happier than when working in his garden or doing a kindly act for a friend. Many neighbors and friends mourn with his family the untimely passing of this fine lad."

World Day of Prayer On Friday, March S, at 2:30 p.m., members of Zion Reformed church will co-operj-^with y!*^ Community Christian '"church in "the" latter church. This is known as the "World Day of Prayer." Told Without Varnish by Ben Long Men Will Differ A LETTER received this week from the Rev. George A. Korb, a retired clergyman in Deshler, Henry county, Ohio: "Truth is truth," writes the Rev. Mr. Korb, "and right is right, how comes it then that ■ intelligent people hold such different views? Is it that they see the truth but have not the courage to act upon it, or is it that they have courage and do act upon it?" The same thought, although phrased in a different way, was put before the men's class of the Community Christian church on Sunday morning by Dr. Edgar Reilly, president of a girls' school for teachers in Midway, Kentucky. He answered it by saying that people are not narrow-minded as in the old days. It is no' longer a "terrible thing" for a young* woman to work in the South, neither is it a sign that people of one denomination are waybilled for hell by fast freight if they mingle with people holding different religious opinions. The Reilly view, I believe, is the correct view. t t t The Rev. Mr. Korb is familiar with the story of Cyrus, king of Persia, still preserved for us in the book of Ezra, which had to do with the restoration of the temple. Ezra was a scribe and the book that bears his name contains a description of his journey. Cyrus was a political diplomat. His purpose was to placate his people by subsidizing their particular form of worship. Brigham Young was a wise man. He encouraged dancing and dramatics to keep the minds of his followers miles away from the big issue. American politicians used the tariff to lull the people to sleep. Many of them are still asleep. t t WOMAN ENTERTAINER Is Coming Friday Night As Guest of Clover Leaf Class.

Duff and Mr.s Fred Boli At Middlebranch P.-T. A. Mrs. C. E. Duff spoke to the P.-T. A. of Richville on Tuesday evening on the "British Isles School System" and will discuss the same subject before the P.-T. A of Middlebranch tonight (Wednesday). Mrs. Fred Boli has charge of the latter program, and that is quite sufficient to assure everyone an interesting evening. COMING down to our own times, the news from Washington gives birth to the belief that even in our self-assured Tightness we need to remember how much can be said for the man who adopts the opposite view. Probably Senator. Blank sees a side of the truth that we have partially missed. The complete truth is greater than either of our separate viewpoints. A larger synthesis were it possible would incorporate both. Yet that seems humanly impossible. For,-how .can.-"4Mr£*or- "no" in such cases as I have considered be harmonized ? Failing- that larger synthesis men will continue to differ, in viewpoint and in emphasis, yet in their differences should be found mutual respect. o Teaches Common Sense WHILE waiting in the library of a friend in Canton recently I glanced through a book by Dr. E. Tietjens, a Russian, and translated by Eden and Ceder Paul. The title of the work is "Desuggestion for the Attainment of Health, Happiness and Success." When I reached for the first volume I had misgivings, but so impressed did I become with the words of the author that the next day I ordered the work. It is in two volumes. Parenthetically I may say that I never borrow books from my friends. I patronize libraries, of course, but it has been my experience that when I permitted a book to leave my library it rarely found its way back. Tietjens' volumes may be on a shelf in the North Canton public library. If so, let me suggest that you read them. JN THESE days psychology is being expounded from all sorts of angles, as well as utilized for all kinds of individual and social needs; and these two volumes add much that is useful for students of the science of mind, at the same time making their appeal to the general reader. Dr. Tietjens deals with his subject from a special point of view, largely the result of his own experiences. Impoverished by the Russian revolution, he removed to Berlin. All of us, he points out, are a prey to numberless fancies that hamper our understanding, ruin our nerves, make us depressed, discontented, unsuccessful and unhappy.

A bit of a stunt, stamping out the dregs of a pall when it is lifting. GIRLS AT COLUMBUS Are Entitled To More Pay If They Detour For Children. Columbus, March 6.—Attorney General John W. Bricker has ruled that where the route of a school bus driver is lengthened to take care of children who reside off of the route as originally provided in the contract, the board of education may lawfully modify the contract to provide additional compensation for the driver. This question, the attorney general told the prosecuting attorney of Stark county, has been passed upon in two former opinions, from the office, one in 1930 and another in 1932. Both opinions, he said, held in effect that the board, after making a contract for the transportation of school children, may lawfully modify or change the contract if changed conditions make such action necessary. Telling of the Activities of North Canton American Legion Post No. 419 and ef the Legion Auxiliary LACK OF PATRIOTISM IS INJURING AMERICA So Declares Captain S. N. Dancy In Address Before Legion and Invited Guests. An inspiring Post meeting was held on Monday night. This was an open session, with the Legion Auxiliary, and representatives from various clubs and organizations of the community present to hear Captain S. N. Dancy speak on the timely subject of "Looking Ahead." Working with school children and being a champion of the cause of better citizenship he urged continued support of the schools of our nation, and said that the best and only way to continue the progress' of civilization is by the proper education of our children. He discussed the doubts, fears and indifference of the American people, calling for faith and courage to face the present day issues squarely and not try to "detour," as he termed it. He also- mentioned the lack of respect by our people for law and order, lack of patriotism and proper respect for the Flag of our country. Education, of the adult as well as the child, in the principles of Americanism, is the remedy, he said. His opinion is that a readjustment of our social and economic systems will be made. Discussing the work of the American Legion, the Captain stated that it is not an organization formed for a selfish purpose of benefiting only its members, but he spoke of it as a service organization, an organization helpful to the community in which it is located, to the state and to the nation as a whole. All the legislation passed for. the aid of the disabled soldiers and widows and orphans of soldiers, was proposed and sponsored by the American Legion, he said. He complimented the Legion on its non-sectarian and non-political policies. He urged a continued community service, reminding us that "a Legion Post or any other organization is only as good as its members choose to make it." The address by Captain Dancv was greatly appreciated by all those present. The Post wishes to express its appreciation to its guests for accepting the invitation to attend the meeting. The next regular meting will be held on Monday, March 18, at S:00 p.m. The tenth district conference will be held at Wooster on March 17.

Bill Schick was awarded one of the forward berths on the Stark County Class B high school all-tournament team. This team is picked by officials and this year no school had more than one man on the first and only squad. Schick was picked because he is a good floor man and can throw plenty through the hoop. He is deserving of this honor and North Canton should feel proud of placing one of her men on this team. The Sun extends congratulations to Bill. He is a good clean sport. The personnel of this team is as follows: Joe McCombs, Canton township, forward; Bill Schick, North Canton, forward; Wellington Katler, Canal Fulton, center; Bob Rouda- boush, Marlboro, guard; Jim Bankert, Waynesburg, guard. o Easy To Prove < Fine job printing at The Sun office Sun printers know how. As The s un Sees it Without Pre j u d i c e » n —i n ■■■ ■»<>«■-. Worth a Trial WHEN the government gets through with its hog and pig buying and slaughtering campaign we suggest it begin buying up kidnappers and gangsters and crooked NRA cheaters and chislers in the cities and send them to the slaughter pens. Of course the crooks, even in prime condition, wouldn't bring as much in price as a pig, but it would serve to reduce the surplus and those remaining might die of fright. Like the NRA itself, it would he an experiment, and is worth a trial. Farm Holidays FARM holidays may not appeal to some people, but it seems to be about the only way in which the country can' be jarred into a recognition of the farmer. When a farm holiday movement is inaugurated a large majority of people view it without interest, some with amusement. If it begins to spread and the flow of foodstuffs is curtailed, they become apprehensive, and as it extends over new territory alarm becomes prevalent. It is then public officials come to their senses and strain heaven and earth to check the movement. The prospect of empty stomachs and the possible loss of votes jars them into life and activity. ! There is only one thing in con- j nection with a necessary farm strike) that does not win favor with us. That; is the withholding of necessary milk J from little children and babies. Otherwise, if cutting down on our own meals would aid the farm boys in their fight for justice we would joyfully tighten our belt and say, "GO TO IT AND STAND PAT." WORLD OF SPORTS IS ACTIVE THESE DAYS BLUE-GREEN SUN Hung In Western Sky On Tuesday Afternoon For Several Hours. A sight rarely seen here was the sun yesterday (Tuesday) afternoon as it hung in the western sky. It resembled a round ball of pale blue- green and the watcher could gaze upon it without the aid of smoked glasses. As a matter of fact gazing at the orb did not even tire the eyes. For several hours many persons watched this unusual occurrence and opinions of many shades were offered. Several persons called The Sun and asked the reason for the sun's change of face. They were told that dust storms in Oklahoma and Kansas frequently obscure the light of the sun. This writer for The Sun, when a resident of the southwest, saw the sun resemble in color shades of green, light blue, red, dark yellow and brown. Ail due to dust storms. FARMERS' INSTITUTE Two Sessions Begin This Wednesday Evening In Uniontown.

Price of Liberty VIGILANCE is the price of liberty, they say. In many cases it is also the price of life. Even with the utmost vigilance there is no certainty of prolonging our existence. Constituted authority always has its enemies. Some of them are men of intelligence who act only from conviction. Others are wild eyed fanatics whose single aim in life seems to be the violent destruction of some ruler or high public official. Human nature can respect a man who is out of sympathy with a government purely from a sense of what he deems to be right and wrong, provided he remains within the bounds of law and reason. That is probably more so in this country than in any other land. But the man who does not reason, who acts only from impulse inspired by violent hatred, is a menace to every nation and a problem which no government has as yet been able to solve. o Too Many Strikes WE ARE having entirely too many strikes while the country is en- ' deavoring to work its way out of the depression. It is about lime for conservative labor union leaders to remember that they owe a duty to the government as well as to the rest of us. This is a good time to let well enough alone for a while. Communism, it has been pointed out, is in the forefront of many labor disputes. It is the dominant voice in the strikes of workers. It fosters dissatisfaction, discord and trouble of every conceivable nature. It is by such means that communistic leaders hope to stir up a revolution and exchange the Stars and Stripes for a red flag of government control of everything, including the liberties of the people themselves. DIE IN ACCIDENTS Earl F. Elmer and Robert Bruce Nelson the. Victims. Residents of North Canton and Canton were shocked when they heard the news on Thursday morning that Earl F. Ebner was burned to death on Wednesday night near the Akron airport when his automobile caught fire after it was struck by a train. Earl was 37 years of age.

Beck, pastor of Zion Reformed church; officiated, assisted by Lee T. Lewis. Interment in Forest Hill cemetery. Robert Nelson was 17 years of age. He died in Mercy hospital on Thursday night from injuries received three j hours earlier when a Canton bus ■ backed over him at Cleveland ave. and ! 30th street N.W. | Besides his parents, he leaves two brothers, Arlan and Oscar, and three small sisters, Louise, Marcedene and Alice Kate, and several relatives. | Mrs. Duff, a neighbor, expressed the opinion of many persons when J she said: "Though we may never i know how Bruce Nelson died, there | nre many neighbors and friends who | remember how he lived. Bruce was' truly one of nature's gentlemen. Always pleasant and obliging, never happier than when working in his garden or doing a kindly act for a friend. Many neighbors and friends mourn with his family the untimely passing of this fine lad."
