OBITUaRY.
Be still prepared for death and death or
life shall thereby be the sweeter.--
Shakespeare.


The sudden death of Mrs. Benjamin
Evans on Tuesday evening was great
shock to the whole community. AL
though being i'll for some time and at
times quite low, for the past few days
her condition has seemed TO the physi
clan and family to have been much
better, and hopes were high that she
would be spared to them for at least a
few months, but death came uuherald-
ed, and on Tuesday, March 3, 1915, the
tired spirit took its flight.
Evelina Odell was born in Chicago
the Sth of October, 1912, and was there.
fore seventy three years Of age at time
of death.
She was married to Benjamin Evans
March 13, 1861, and in 1865 they came
to Michigan and lived on farm for a
good many years, later coming into
Yale to make their home.
Ten children were born to Mr. and
Mrs. Evans, all of whom are living.
They are Cornelius, Mrs Knapp,
Maurice, Mrs. Dudley, Susan, Frank,
Mrs. Van Dorm, Mrs. Williams, Maie,
Mrs. Clark.
Mrs. Evans was of such kind, low.
ing disposition, gentle and affectionate
that she won the love and respect of
all who came into contact with her.
She was ever earnest and faithful in
performance of all duties pertaining to
family, church or social life.
She will be missed, not alone by her
family circle, but by hosts of friends.
Funeral services will be held Friday
morning from the home, Rev. Geach

GREAT INTELLIGENCE
Union Pacific Improvement Work In
Weber Canyon Develops Trio Of
Remarkable Animals.

In the construction OF second
track through Weber Canyon a few
miles east of Ogden the Union Pacific
is expending large amount of money
and among its employees are number
ed three of the most intelligent
horses in the business, if the latest
reports from the seat of this activity
are to be credited.
Approximately 5000 cubic yards
of earth and 100000 cubic yards of
rock will have to be moved to COM
plete this work. Steam shove1s
handle practically all of this material
A tunnel through over $50 feet Of
solid rock on a point near Gateway
Hill known as Sheep Rock is a part
of the great endeavor. and when the
new line is completed it will give the
Union Pacific a sixty foot grade per
mile as compared with the present
old-line grade of ninety-three feet,
nearly all of the undesirable curva-
ture of this present line being
eliminated.
The three horses which have won
renown in the gigantic work at hand
have become famous among the hui
man employees. There is Keno, a
nine-year coal black; Jumbo, a ten
year grey, and Don, a seven year
black
Have they brains oh my,
Each of these bright-eyed UnfoE
Pacific animals seems to know when
the work-track switches are properly
lined and has been known to stop Of
his own accord when such is not the
case. Any error by careless driver
has thus been made impossible by
these horses, by actual observation.
No side-swiped cars and no personal
injuries to Keno, Jumbo and
Don.
In view of the heavy rock handled
there must be considerable blasting.
and it is the custom for the steam
shovel to give scatter whistle"
when a blast is to be discharged.
thus warning the workmen- A series
of short whistles announces the COM
ing explosions and a number of longer
blasts of the whistle indicate the
number thereof
When the scatter whistle" is
blown the three intelligent horses
plainly show by their nervousness
that they expect to be freed from
their trans, and when unhitched they
follow the workmen up or down the
fifl. They likewise appear to cssunt
the number OF blasts to be fired. and
will not bulge from safety until the
last has been discharged
Keno Jumbo and Don are both the
pets and the heroes of the big Weber
Canyon second track work and seem
to have picked up the spirit Of safety

THE LONELY COUNTRY.

It is frequently remarked, by people who come out from large cities into the country in summer, that it must be terribly lonely living in country villages in winter. As a matter of fact. it som etimes seems as if there were more doing in the country than anywhere else.
 Of course the metropolitan centers have their theatres and sports and diversions in a marvellous variety. But costs a good deal to follow these amusements constantly. Many peo- pie do little during their spare time but walk up and down the streets and look in store windows.
 In country towns the granges, fra ternal societies, churches, and little circles of card players and lovers of out door sports, keep things hum ming. It is often impossible, if you want to get up an entertainment, to find a spare evening when there is not something expressing on foot. Any one who is socially inclined can find plenty of others who wish to do in teresting things, whether it be the study of books or current events, the perfecting of oneself in games of skill, or the studying of the latest dance steps.

TO HANDLE WHEAT.
Australia to Undertake Novel Project to Help Farmers
 Sell Surplus.

Melbourne, Australia, Dec. f.-The
 war is the occasion in Australia for
 what is probably one of the most novel
 ventures in state socialism ever un-
 dertaken. The Cornmonwealth's ex-
 portable Surplus from its coming
 bumper wheat crop is the object of \ the experiment., and the protector of the idea $ the new Prime Minister,
 William M. Hughes.
 The Australian wheat yield this year
 will approximate 150, ,0O0.OO0 bushels, of
 which about 130, 100000 bushels will be available for export. In view of the
 war and the scarcity of ships grave problems of transportation have ar1s-
 en. Recently MT. Hughes was able to state that after conference between Commonwealth and State representa- tives an agreement had been reached for financing, storing, selling, and transporting hence the salable wheat, all under government control.
 A London board, representing the Commonwealth and the four wheat states-New} South Wales, <, Victoria, South Australia, and west Australia is to have the cooperation of Lon don representatives of the principal Australian wheat-buying firms. Gov ernment agents will be appointed to receive the wheat at various Austral- ian centres, issue certificates. store and safeguard it, consign it to ports. and ship it. Part payment will be made to holders of certificates on basis of 75 cents, free on board at the principal ports, the difference between the amour thus received and the av- craze price received for all the wheat exported less expenses will be paid to the holders of the certificates at the close of the season. Deliveries of wheat under this scheme are to cease on September 30. and accounts. will ! be closed and final payments made probably not later than NOV. 30 Among the farmers there is con- nisgiving over, the scheme Since the wheat grab by the New South Wales Government last year the agricultural clements in Australia have resented anything approaching | State infringement upon their rights. | But it is realized that abnormal means | are to be expected in abnormal times, | and that in assuming the large task I of obtaining vessels-about 1000 will | be wanted, it is said-the Common 1 wealth government will have the con and the aid of the British | According to some, the | project is one of cooperative market ing by the farmers of Australia, in | which the government plays the part | of forwarding and selling agent.

HE KEPT HER BRACEkET.
Dear Miss Ldbbey:-

Dear Miss Libbey:-
 I am a young girl reader of IS. I do not keep company regularly with any one. Am I too young? I have known a young man for years whom I go with now and then. Also, he does not keep company with any certain girl. Is he a. serious escort? Am I to invite him to my house? If admirer gets your, bracelet, says you are to kiss him goodnight ere he returns it, what would you do? He still has it. I said: 'tI never kissed a man. Rather you may keep it.'' Dearly I value the bracelet-my dead mothers gift. Since have not liked the young man. Thanks for your advice.
 Ms I should say you cou1dtn not care for this particular visitor. Write or ask for the bracelets return. Mention that it was your dead mothers gift you love dearly. If not returned ask friends to aid in it's recovery.

COUNTRY GIRLS-CITY
 BEAUX' INTENTIONS

Dear Miss Iibbey:-
 We are country girls, Is and IS, do- mesticated, respectful bright, jolly girl friends. We receive best attentions of city youths we are proud of. Another girl is jealous of the love they show us unmistakab1k. Please tell us how to know of their intentions. Thanks.
 ME
 Modest sweet girls in good time will receive admiration from worthy young men. Jealousy does not harm true hearts. Keep respectful distance. Thus you will bring out their good of matrimony if accepted.
