| Mr.. and Mrs. C. e. Barnard, No. sos
North street, received word today
1of a serious accident to their daugh-
ter Beatrice, the wife of Rev. J. M.
jackson, pastor OF the Hamilton
lchurch of San Francisco. They
were in an automobile which collided
with a street car Physicians and
nurses nave been working with the
patient, but at this date the outcome
is uncertain and the extent of the in
juries is underlined A host of Oska-
loosa friends will sympathize with the
parents and hope for speedy recov-
cry for the injured girl.
The Perry Chief thus tells of honor
coming to former Oskaloosa boy
but who for many years has been en-
gagged in business at that place: Less
than a year ago Mr.. C. d. Oldham,
Perry's marble dealer, was by unani-
nous vote made president of the Iowa
Retail Monument Dealers associa-
ton. So efficiently has he fulfilled the
responsible duties of that position,
that the attention of the executive
board of the National body has been
drawn to him, and at their last meet
ing a few days ago he was made a
vice-president to represent Iowa in
their meetings. The honor came I'M
expectedly and unsolicited, but GER
tainly could not have been conferred
upon man more thoroughly compe-
tent to fill the place with dignity than
he. While the Office does not carry
any pecuniary emolument, it is one
of great honor, and the fact of selec-
ton for 1t shows the high estimation
in which our townsman is held by the
experts in his craft. The next annual
meeting of the National body will be
held in Cincinnati in October of next
year"
