the only explanation l. G. Doane, OF
Laurel. would make those at his
deatlbed Friday afternoon, who We're
doing all within their power to alleN-
late the sufferings of most agon-
ling death. Doane drank concen-
,rated I've in a successful attempt to
end his life. and death followed two
hours later.
MIR. Doane was 70 years old. and
made his home with his widowed
daughter, Mrs. Mary A. Rogers. at
Laurel. He was an old resident OF
the county, vas well-to-do and high
ly respected. OF late he had been
respondent. altho his daughter did
not surmise that he would ever make
AN attempt to end his life. Unknown
to any member of the household, Mr..
Doane secured a cup and filled 1t
with the I've. He drained the vessel
and fell to he floor. writing in pain.
His daughter called a physician. but
nothing could save him. The mans
mouth and throat were badly burned,
evidencing terrible condition that
must have resulted with the vital
organs.
Aside from the Laurel daughter Mr..
Doane is survived by one other
daughter. Mrs. Clayton Williams. liv-
ing in Missouri. and son, Orvflle
Doane. Of Laurel. Mrs. Doane died
several years ago.
The funeral willgbe held from the
United Brethren church southeast of
Laurel. Sunday forenoon at TO- and
interment will take place in the church
burying ground.
Because the facts Of the mans sui
eide were so very evident and con-
elusive, the Laurel authorities made
no report to the coroner.

First and Fourth Tonight
Local Comment

Is it because this is termed a
wicked world" that mankind in gem
eral is being compelled to walk in
slippery places these days?
"
Notices to clean sidewalks are all
right and proper. but what about the
public walks about Malshalltown? The
county, or municipality, or both. are
not setting a very good example IN
asking the private citizen to shovel
snow and ice and then leave the public
walks covered with glaze that makes
a footing impossible. One would think
that with the large number of vag-
rants and DRINKS reported from the
police courts that both city and coun-
ty had sufficient help to get rid OF
slippery walks.
It is pleasing to note the interest
being taken in the county spelling
bee for the children of rural schools
a feature being promoted as one of the
evening entertainments during short
course week Every country school
in the county should be represented in
the match and the prize is worth the
while of contestants doing little
work to fit themselves for the event.
The average child today is not the
speller his parents were before him
and it is also probably true that our
grandfathers were even better orthog-
raphers than our fathers. Spelling has
been laid aside for more modern ideas
in education, and the neglect given
to this important factor in the child's
curriculum is already telling on the
graduate Many high school students
today, in fact, the majority of them,
are poor spoilers. They do fine work
in other lines; then spoil it with mis-
spelled words. Spelling may be lit
tie old fashioned. but 1t is still some
thing that should command the atten-
ton of educators, no matter where
