Band Gives Outdoor Concert.

The first: outdoor band concert OF
the season a the Great NoTtther1
park, Friday evening. Since Mr.
Dahlof has taken charge of the band
the organization has made wonder
full improvement and the musical
numbers rendered at this concert
were exceptionally good. A large
audience was present and showed
their appreciation by repeated ap-
plauses.
If it is the intention Of the boys
to give regular concerts in the fu-
ture, the Sheaf would suggest that a
public subscription to taken up for
the purpose of screening in the band
stand and thus make it impossible
for those "pesky skeeters" to in
terrupt them when they are playing
sweet strains of music

an error and a passed man. In the
sixth they scored once more this
time the run being an earned one.

by one of Warren's felders.

Respected Farmer Has Passed Away

Levi Olmstead Munger died at his
home near this city on July Is, 1916,
aged SO years, 6 months and 20 days.
The cause of death was cancer of the
stomach from which disease he has
been suffering for some time. De-
ceased was born December Is, 1916,
at Little Rock, Kendall county, Hi
nois. His parents were Rev. and
Mrs. O. w. Munger and he was the
fourth son of a family of five broth
ers and four sisters, all of whom
with his aged parents have proceed
ed him in death, with the exception
Of one sister Mrs. Susan Taft, who
resides at Stewart, Nebraska. He
was married January %, 1868 to Miss
Amanda M. Keluy at Little Rock.
Six children were born to this union,
four of whom have passed away.
After marriage he lived for sever
al years near his birth place and in
the days of no railroads and facing
severe harships, he ventured across
country by wagon to Iroquois county,
Illinois, where he settled and lived
for several years; not being satisfied
with conditions there he moved back
to the old homestead. Here his first
companion thru life passed away,
November 4, 1891. In 1894 he was
again united in marriage, this time
to Miss Nellie Mallory, of Lisbon,
Illinois, who died the following year.

that the Red River valley offered in
duced him to move to this city with
his son Maurice and wife and his
only daughter, Ethel. During the 10
years that he resided in this vicinity
L. O. Munger has done much to
spread the gospel Of better farming.
AS a grain grower and stock raiser
he has aided his fellow tillers of the
soil greatly by teaching them and
demonstrating the better way of
farming. There were few men in
this part of the valley who have
learned by experience as much of
agriculture and stock breeding as did
Mr.. Munger. Whatever he learned
he was willing to impart for the
benefit of mankind.
He was kind and loving father,
a man of sterling worth and was held
high in the esteem of his neighbors
and friends. Mr.. Munger was an ex-
amplary citizen, always ready to as
sist the needy and, was 5a@seloaea fol-
lower Of the Golden Rule in his
journey thru life.
The funeral was held at the M. E.
church in this city on Monday after
noon at three o'clock and was large
ly attended by friends and neighbors,
who came to pay their last respects
and love to the departed old farmer,
who has finished his good work on
earth. The funeral was conducted
under the auspices Of the Warren
Masonic Lodge, of which deceased
has long been a member. He was
also member of the M. E. church
here. An impressive sermon was
preached by Rev. L. w. Bartholow.
The floral tributes were many and
beautiful. The remains were shipped
for burial to Lisbon, Illinois and
were accompanied by daughter, Miss
Ethel Munger and Mr.. C. Enix.
To all who mourn, the entire COM
extends most heartfelt SYM
pathy.
