Mr.. David T. Miller was born Nov
ember IL, 1862, in the state of PEN
nsylvania, and died May 20, 1916, at
his home in Fulton County, Ohio, at
the age of fifty-three years, six
months and eight days. In the year
of 1888, he came to Williams County,
Ohio, where he met and wed Mary B.
Shambarger. They began house
keeping on the farm he purchased and
they resided there until 1906, when
they moved to Clinton township. He
was man of noble integity, mem
Der of the u. B. church at North
Dover till he moved to Clinton town
ship. He was a believer in all things
right. He was loved and esteemed by
all. He leaves to mourn their loss
his wife and Lula child they raised
from childhood now the wife of Clair
Miley, three half brothers and six
half sisters, only one residing near.
Besides relatives and friends, his
father and mother have both passed

Lena Corners Tuesday afternoon, Rev.
j. H. Williams of the United Brethren
church officiated. The music was fur
nished by the United Brethren church

One by one our friends are falling,
AS the voice of God is calling;
One by one is illness wasting
Those who to the grave are hasting.
One by one the Angels bringing,
Christians to the land of singing.
One by one their burdens fall,
And Christ their Lord is all in all.

BACCALAUREATE
Senior Class of WauseOn High School
Listen to An Appropriate and In
teresting Sermon from Rev. ]. A.
Wharton at The Methodist Church
Sunday Evening.

Long before seven-thirty SUNDAY
evening the large auditorium of the
Methodist church was filled with citi-
zens OF Wauseon who had come to
listen to the Class Sermon to the
Wauseon High School Glass of 1916.
Seats for the class and faculty of the
High School were reserved in the
front and center of the auditorium
and large cluster of Gala Lilies
formed the most noticeable feature of
the decorations on the platform, the
pastors of the churches of the village
participated in the opening and clos
ing services, the choir of the Metho-
dist church led in the congregational
singing and sang a beautiful and ap-
propriate anthem.
Rev. Wharton's sermon was mark
ed by its clearness and was forcibly
delivered; his theme was "The Sue
cessful Life" and it was indeed very
timely and appropriate We take
pleasure in publishing herewith the
entire sermon:
Acts 9:6-Lord, what wilt thou
have me do? Phil 3:13-14-This one
thing l do. l press toward the mark
for the prize.
Phil. Alb can do all things
through Christ who strengtheneth me.
These expressions are from the lips
of the same man. They were spoken
at different periods in his career and
each shows the trend of his life in its
respective period. When he said
Lord, what wilt thou have me do ?"
Saul of Tarus was seeking the best
purpose in life. He had not found it
before. Led by his own will, burning
with a zeal that was not according to
knowledge he was out of the way of
life himself and prosecuting unto pris-
on and death all who walked therein
When he said, "This one thing l do
he had caught vision of life's mean
ing. On the plain near Damascus he
had seen the Great Teacher and the
life that was "hid with Christ in God
henceforth became the mark toward
which he pressed-pressed with such
energy and singleness of purpose as
to truly say "the things behind I for
get and this one thing do" AS life
went on shaped by this vision he grew
in grace and knowledge to that
strength in which he could say in hu-
mility and yet in triumph. 81 can dc
all things through Christ" Through
these sayings we can see the stages
of development in his life-a seeker
worker, a victor. We can discern
in them his purpose, concentration
of energy and his accomplishment
The call things" that he could dc
were but the result of the zone
thing" done as the Lord had told him
The latter part of Paul's life was
crowned with success because it was
spirit filled, God directed life.
It is evident from this example as

1t IS from many others in the worlds
history that one who expects to be
glorified by success cannot live a ran
dom life.
Success Demands a Purpose.
When Paul said: 81 press toward
the mark" it was but another way
of saying he had an aim in life. An
aim is needed in every life to keep it
from failure. Many have failed be-
cause they had no purpose or the
wrong one. Some have ended nowhere
because they travelled the path Of
don't care. Others have taken the
road of "By and By" and according
to the Spanish proverb it led to Never.
Many have made a grand success of
hitting nothing because that was the
mark at which they aimed. Without a
purpose in life twofold failure stares
one in the face. First, the good he
would do he does not. Second, the
evil he would not that he does. Life
is regenerated by purpose or must de-
generate for the want of it. Life is
growth or decay. 1t has it's electric
current of energy to pass over right
conductors and move the wheels of
action to good, or over the grounded
wire to the waste of itself and to th1
destruction of others.
The tramp is but a person with an
aimless life. AS such he is eccentric,
unbalanced, dangerous. Seeking to
exist rather than to live he is failure
to himself and menace to society.
Many belong to this class who are not
riding freight cars or begging bread.
They are clothed in purple and fine
linen and fare sumptuously every
day. They may dwell in palaces.
Yet life to them is as purposeless as
it is to those unfortunates who tramp
the land seeking rest but finding none.
The great problem to some people is
how to put in the time to their own
pleasure. To say the least, such lives
are sinful in the sight of God and
might be positively criminal in the
eyes of the law were it not that they
are raised above want by their money.
Life must be growth or decay. Let
the wicked demons find the heart
swept and garnished of purpose and
they will come with band of their
own and set up the devils workshop
from which his goods in deeds of the
flesh will be turned out in wholesale
quantities. The most dangerous temp
tations come to those who drift aim
less. Find cure for idleness and the
remedy is at hand for half of the in
temperance and its consequent crime.
When a person has nothing behind to
which to tie and nothing before to
which to look there is a great tempta-
ton to become nothing. Mrs. Anna
Edison Taylor was once a school teach
er. Life for some reason lost it's pur-
pose. She came to the time when she
cut loose from the good of the past
and seemed to have no purpose for
the future so she put herself in a
barrel shaped cask, went through the
rapids of Niagara and over the Cam
adian falls. What was her reward !?
The notoriety of being the only per-
son up to that time who had gone over
the falls and come out alive. 1t was
cheap for the few dollars gained in
exhibiting herself were soon spent
and her life remained purposeless.

be its one ship out upon the ocean

As YOU LIKE IT"
WauseOn High School Senior Class
Present Shakespearean Play At
Saunders Hall Tuesday Evening In
a Creditable Manner.

"As You Like 1t" the class play of
the Class of 1916 was given in Saun-
ders' Hall last Tuesday evening. In
spite Of the fact that the play was
given by the class under rather dis
advantageous circumstances it was
very creditably presented and the
members of the class deserve high
praise for their splendid work as do
those who trained them. The play
was to have been given in North Park
but weather conditions prevented.
Having been drilled with the, out
of doors performance in view and as
the necessity of change to under cover
did not appear until Monday, the class
were working under difficulties when
the play was staged in Saunders
Hall Tuesday evening but in spite of
all this and the fact that there was
no platform in the hallthe characters
were well interpreted and most mem
bers of the class seemed letter per-
feet in their parts. Following is the
cast of characters:
Prologue ......... Mary McClarren
The Duke, living in banishment
Paul Funk
Fredrick, his brother, and usurper of
I his dominions -. Nelson LaSalle
lie Beau, a courtier of Fredrick
...........C Clarence Bowser
Charles, a wrestler to Fredrick

met LaSalle; Orlando, Howard Ham,

LARGER DEPOSITS


Larger postal savings deposits will
now be accepted at the post office.
This is made possible by an import
ant amendment to the Postal Savings
Act just approved by President Will
son. A postal savings depositor may
now have an account amounting to
$1,000 upon which interest will be
paid. Formerly $500 was the maxi
mum amount he could have to his
credit. This enlargement of postal
savings facilities will be very gratify-
ing to thousands of depositors who
have already reached the old $500
limit and are anxious to entrust
more of their savings to Uncle Sam.
Another feature of the amendment
that will avoid further embarrassment
to the public and to postal officials is
the doing away with the limit on the
amount that could be accepted from
a depositor monthly. Under the old
law only $100 could be deposited in
a calendar month. The amendment
abolishes this restriction. While the
Postal Savings System has already
proved a signal success as is showr
| by the fact that more than half-a.
million depositors have over eighty
million dollars standing to theil
credit, still it has fallen short o1
meeting the full demands of the pub
lie because Of the restrictions which
have now.abeen eliminated. Postmast
er General Bur1eson and Third Assist
ant Postmaster General Dockery havt
been tireless in their efforts to secur'
modification of the limitations ant
the new liberaizing legislation il
particularly gratifying to them.
