PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS
Every DOQy Is IN pursuit vi hdPPi
ness. Reasoning from this, we con
clude that the one all important prob
lem for the human race TO solve is
how to create conditions under which
man will develop into perfect being
for none but a perfect being can b'
happy, for the simple reason that hi!
lack OF perfection will put thorn II
his pillow and leave an ungratified de
sire nibbling at the heart. All worth!
social movements have their origin II
the motive to make more happy people
The winning feature of every politica
policy is its power to improve condi
tions and diffuse more happines:
throughout society. What is our re
ligion? Is it not that which makes Vi
conscious OF Gods goodness and oul
own wickedness, and puts our insight
ficance in contrast with his greatness
What would it mean to us If 1T were
not for it's promise of happiness? Ant
what is happiness, anyway? Is it no
simply rest? If we are not in ever!
respect at rest we cannot be happy
Listen to the words of Christ; Conn
unto me, all We that labor and arr
heavy laden, and will give you rest
There. we have at last found a solu
tion to this great problem. Come un
to me, means go to Jesus. III we APP
ply the teachings of Christ to thu
great social problems confronting u!
the human race will some day find res
sweet rest or happiness.

The Passing Away OF Mr.. James Henry

After years of patient suffering Mr..
James Henry, of Edmund, Utah, pass
ed to his reward on Easter Sunday,
April 10, 1908, just as the church bells
rang for evening service. What could
be more fitting than to die on Easter?
The subject of this sketch was born in
Ireland, October "a, 1910, being Sixty
seven Years, Five Months, Twenty
Days of age at the time of his demise.
He came with his parents to Mercer
county, Illinois, in lS49 where he resid-
ed until 1876 when he moved to Iowa,
| locating near Adair, in Grant town
ship, Guthrie county. His first mar
riage took place in 1871, in Scott coun-
ty, Iowa, to Elizabeth Kelsey, and by
this union he had three children: Mary,
Harriet j., and Elizabeth Henry. Mrs.
Henry died February IT, 1879. He was
again married, January i, 1880, near
Menlo, Iowa, to Miss Emma Bickford.
BY this union there were born ten
children, all of whom survive him with
his wife except the eldest son who died
in infancy; also one brother and sister
who reside in illinois; and numerous
other relatives. He moved with his
family to Extra, Iowa, in 1888 where
he resided until eight years ago when
on account of failing health he remov-
ed to Okarche, Oklahoma, remaining
there until last fall when they then
moved to Edmund, Utah. He united
with the Presbyterian church when
quite young and of which church he
has always been constant attendant,
except while living in Extra when he
united with the Congregational church
there being no church OF his creed in
IA 4 N. l. t. q.
and he was ready to answer the sum-
mons was evident by remark he
made while debating a message to be
sent to his only living brother in which
he said: 1.-The King has called and
his messenger demands haste" The
funeral services were held from his
late home in Edmund; his wife and
daughter, Harriet Henry, accompa-
MED the remains to Adair, Iowa, where
they were taken to the home OF Mrs.
Nj. j. Henry where a short service was
held by the Rev. Mr.. Caldwell and the
interment was made on the family lot
|. in the Cemetery there by the side of
his wife and son who had gone on
before. q. f.. X.
, Frank Persing built himself fine
new coal Office the past week at his
West Extra yards. 1t is very neat
and up to date little Office.
John Hicks returned last Thursday
from weeks outing in Dakota.
Effie Williams, who had been clerk
: ing at the Rendleman Brothers store,
: resigned her position last Saturday
evening and Monday morning began
work at the Ed Cotton store.
|
Mrs. Lancelot and daughter, Bea
Lancelot, left last Thursday for Scran-
tou where they went to pass few days
with Grant Lancelot and family who
reside in that city.

WHAT is 1T?

Merely a little map to show you some-
thing of the immensely of the territory
served by the Rock Island Frisco
c. & Z. /. Lines,
Just think of all those miles of steel
humming to the tune of whirling
wheels, day and night!
Some size to system like that-don's
you think?
And 1t means great deal to the well
fare of your COMMUNICATIVE railroad
which carries you and your freight.
It's a bond of communication between
you and your neighbors-between you
and the market for your products.
It's an enterprise worthy of fostering
is it not?
Remember, too, that the country needs
the railroads as an aid in development
and in the transaction of business, and
the railroads need you, the traveller and
the shipper-it's community interest
proposition, you know.
Let's all pull together!
