I'M MEMORIAM.

In sad and loving remembrance OF our dear
mother Rebecca l.. Spencer who departed this
life one year ago. today. June z, 1919
Yes, we miss her, oh we miss her
When we see her vacant chair,
And how sad the room without her.
For there is no mother there
Our home is sad, and oh how dreary,
Lonesome, lonely every spot.
Listening for her voice till weary,
Weary for we hear it not.
Her busy hands are folded.
Her tolls on earth are done.
Her troubles are all ended,
Her heavy crown she's won
But one thought comes to me in my sadness
She is free from all sickness and PAIN
And trust when my journey 10 ended
Twill meet my dear mother again.
BY HER LOVING DAUGHTER EMMA.
In sad but loving remembrance of my dear SON,
Ernest B. Dell who departed this life one year
ago. Gone but not forgotten.
BY the beautiful gates he stands and waits.
My dear son from broken heart set free;
shall clasp his hand in the beautiful land,
When the hinges turn for me.

STATE MARSHAL TAKES
RAP AT SHINGLE ROOF
SAYS 1922. OH Of 1915 Fire Loss il
Due Directly TO This Kind OF
Construction.
Nen..Times So servIce:

News-Times Special Service:
INDIANAPOLIS. May 29-The
report of state Fire Marshal W. L.
Longley. for the year 1918. takes a
''whack' at the single roof which
it says is a dangerous proposition.
The report says,
Five hundred and twenty-five
thousand and fourteen dollars Of the
1915 fire loss is directly chargeable
against the single roof hazard. \
large percentage Of the 'adjoinins
losses occur because the single roof
ignites so readily. Twenty eight per
cent Of the fires this year were caus-
ed by sparks alighting on the shinsle
roof. The general use OF the IN
combusJible roof will do more to
cause a reduction in the number Of
fires and lessen the danger of con-
flagratiOn than any other practice.
The total fire loss in Indiana in
1915 was $5,743,SG5. This is S197 O.
245 less than the loss fer the last
eight months of 1913, and S2,192.
OIL less than the loss of 1914. The
small damage of the property OF
mercantile establishments in 1915 rs
compared with 1914 is especially TO
he noted. In 1914 the loss 10 these
business houses was So OS6,116; in
1915 it was S1,1S2,722.
Speaking in favor Of lightning rods
the report says. The loss from
lightning for the years 1913, 1914
and 1915 IS SS64,221, $s12,2O2 and
s315,34 respectively. The increas-
ed use Of lightning rods account for
n part of the decrease in loss. only
three of the 273 lightning losses in
1913 occurred on protected property.
In one case the lightning rod system
was old and out of repair: in an
other lightning travelled 70 the build
ing on the telephone wire.

Spurned Sutton is
Freed of Burglary
Charge in Court

Steve Mes was an ardent admIrer
of Grace Hoffer, who lives with her
parents at 263 Maple st. Steve had
expressed his love for Grace many
lines but was spurned. Grace had
istened attentively but her affec-
lions could not be won and Steve's
headings were all in vain.
Finally Steve became desperate.
He went TO Grace's home and plead
ed passionately for a place in her
heart. She was adamant as far as
steve was concerned. She told him so
and left him alone in the parlor.
Then Steve ascended the stairs Of
the Hoffer home, entered Grace's
loom. and proceeded TO toss things
about right and left. He discovered
.wo pictures of the woman he loved
md left the house.
Then Grace and her parents had
Steve arrested for burglary. When
the case came up in city court Mon
aay Deputy Pros. 5. p. Schwartz
outlined the case TO Judge Warner
and asked that the man be warned
to- stay away from Grace. The bur
glary charge was dismissed and Steve
