BOULWARE
In Memoriam.

day night. Dec. 18, at 11:45 o'clock.
Aaron Boulware, Mayor of Monroe
City.
Mr.. Boulware was born at Sharps-
burg, Marion County, March 22,i
1852, the youngest son of Williami
and Ann McPike Boulware. His
father was the pioneer merchant Of
this section, conducting, with the
iaid of his eldest sons, a country
store at Sharpsburg. After the war;
:when Monroe became a growingj
:railroad town, the store was moved
to Monroe. MIR. Aaron BoulwareI
in his early manhood having a;
branch store at Florida, Mo. Later
she bought out his brothers interest;
sand went into partnership with his;
sbrother-in-law. R. V. Sullivan. After
wards he bought out that interest
also, and conducted the business
Shimself, and continued to run one;
IOf the leading dry goods stores of
Monroe until he was burned out
about ten years ago. Since then he,
sand his son, Thomas, have had theI
! lonly exclusive shoe store in town.
AS a business man, Mr.. Boulwarel
was prudent, far seeing and sue
scessful, with many business inter-
tests. For some years he has BEEN
sthe tie contractor for the Burling-
Ston Route at this point, and he was
salso widely and successfully inter
tested in real estate. In every rela-
stion of life Mr.. Boulware was always
sfound in the active discharge of his
5duty.
AS citizen, he had the best in
gterest of the community at heart,
! and that he held the full confidence
yof his fellow townsmen, is attested
! by the fact that he has been three
3times elected as Mayor.
/ In St. Judes church, where for al
period of thirty years or more, he'
has served as Vestryman and treas!
| surer, his loss cannot be estimated.I
!! He had every interest of the church,
Sclosely and unselfishly at heart, notI
Sonly as one of the most liberal CON-
1tributoIs, but by the moral infiuenceI
Sof his unfailing presence at theI
services of the church; seldomI
was his place vacant, and also byE
ibis loyal friendship for his rector.
On September 81. 1876, hesssswas|
married to Maria M. Mendenhall,i
Ieldest daughter of DR.. Thomas J.
Mendenhall. To them four childrenI
were born. The only son, Thomas
:and three daughters, Anna, ZaidaI
who died in 1900, and Elizabeth
lwho are left to mourn their loss.
He also leaves two little grand;
lchildren.
His family relations were of theE
most ideal character; he was the
most devoted, unselfish husbandE
and father, and his home was theh
dearest spot on earth to him.
AS man his warm hearted, gen.
'erous disposition made him the \
friend and benefactor of every one
in need. His ready sympathy took
him to every scene of sorrow ands
distress. and many is the widow
and the orphan who recall With
fearful gratitude his loving kind !
ness to them in the hour of their
sore need. But his was a many:
sided nature and his genial temper!
and merry laugh drew hosts Of.
friends to his side, and no social,
gathering was complete without

MAGAZINE REVIEW.
Race Suicide ! Blessing.

Once more DR.. Woods Hutchinson has
come to the rescue 81 our much-abused
civilization. In September Woman's
Home Companion, he points out that not
only are eli wrong about the race-sui.
eide problem, but there isn't any.
According To Dr.. hutchinson. the whole
question i hefogged by misconceptions
ife says the question is not new one,
but Is very old An increasing popnla-
ton IS a sign Of civilization. AS for our
immediate forefathers, they can claim
no credit for large families, for they eith-
er gave 10 thought 10 the question at
all, or else welcomed children as future
bread-winners
ITO sum up he says, 4 believe that
the evidence is conclusive that race sui
eide, 50 far as it has yet gone, has proved
am almost unmiXed blessing instead of Q
curse; that the race can never again

Everybody has read stories about the
fine leather goods, hand satchels, toll
ct articles, and other things suited for
the use Of women. that were kept ii the
stationery room Of the Senate. Many
people. in many sections 81 the coun-
try, thought thot vas a form Of graft,
and that IL q Senator desired q make
"a present to his wife OF daughter or
friend, all he had u do was 70 sign an
order permitting them % make selee
ton Of anything they wanted and that
was the end Of IT. Everything that a
Sentaor gets from stationery room,
however, whether a packet Of envelopes
Or a quire Of writing paper, he pays for
with real, If cosy money Each sena-
tor Is allowed Si25 per year for station
cry and if he uses only part Of or none
Of IL. he gets the balance ID cash
But the other impression became SO
general and there was SO much talk
created through the country about the
alleged grating by Senators sn the
shape Of articles for feminine use that
now nothing Il kept on sale Fl the
stationery rom excepting writing ma
terials and other ajuncts Of q desk
knives.
The way tho thing started was that
Senator's wives and daughters seeing
something attractive in downtown
store, would order Ii and have the Bill
sent To the Senator at the Capital. ~
some instances it Is known these pur
cbasers cut quite deeply into the sal
aries Of members who would receive
unexpected bills ait unwelcome times.
So it was decided ~ keep stock
in the stationery room Of the things
that ladies might expect to find in a
store of that kind and limit the
amount that could be charged 70 ony
one Senator to the sum of 1928
ATT first the things were bought 81
retail prices and then the Senate be-
gun purchasing IN Wholesale lots, sci
ling however at cost No one was
supposed TO have the right to buy
there but Senators and members Of
their personal and official families,
Nevertheless SO much business was
conducted tha the downtown merchants
complained that the Senate store was
cutting into their trade And that was
another reason for finally restricting
the stock entirely to stationery
An elaborate set Of books is neces-
sary to keep track Of the transaction
III this governments store. AT the be
ginning tho store keeper was allowed
Is keep track Of the purchases and no
tify the Senator when his limit was
reached This, however, opened too
wide a door for possible fraud Now,
the Treasury Department keeps track
Of the stock on hand and purchases are
reported to it Ia be charged against the
individual stationery accounts Of SenR-
tors. The room IS under the direct con-
troll of committee Of three officers,
one OF whom Is the Financial Seere-
tarv Of the Senate.
