Seeking Death Notice

A sad faced woman came 10 this
office Friday to get a copy Of the paper
with a two line notice Of the death OF
her son which occurred several weeks
ago. Being a stranger In the com
munity only this meager notice had
appeared. This II seems was all that
was ever printed Of the departed one,
her beloved son, and she was so eager
TO get a copy Of the simple statement
that he had died with typhoid fever.
II newspapers could get an intelligent
account Of every birth, marriage and
death that occurs In the community
II would be a source Of satisfaction TO
some one.
