the men who attend your church, the

the men who contribute literally

and their influence on the moulding
of life and character is of such mo-
mentous Importance to the child and
to those he may come in contact
with during the whole of his life.
The people of this county are very
fortunate in having the opportunity
of voting for Mrs. Minnie O'Neil for
this important office.
Being a woman of mature Judgment
and of wide experience in dealing
with the education of children in this
and other counties of Kansas, she
must appeal to the intelligent voter
asone eminently fitted to administer
the duties of this office for the best
welfare of the schools of the county.
Mrs. O'Neil has been very success
full as teacher for several years in
her old home county of Brown, then
moving to Ellis county, she contin-
ued to teach in the Ellis county
schools where her work was charac-
terized by the same modest methods,
coming into Ogallah, Kansas, schools
In 1911, she taught three terms,
which tells better than anything else
could of the work done, her last
teaching work has been in the city
schools of Wa-Keeney, where she is
employed as one of the teachers at
the present time
Mrs. O,Neil is an active worker for
raising the standard of education Of
the county, and utterly opposed to
the idea of false merit for the stimu-
lation of the child irregardless of the
harm done. She contends that great
care should be exercised in the grad
ing of pupils and teachers SO that
actual merit be the standard of pro-
motion.
She will endeavor if elected to adj
minister the duties of this office with
purpose single to the interests OF
the teachers and pupils, having in
mind the necessity of being economi-
cal in the execution of any measures
that may come up for settlement, as
between districts and patrons, with
the main idea in the foreground viz:
the best interests of the schools of
the county.
With these important questions in
mind and feeling that she can be of
real service TO the schools of the
county as their county superintend-
ent, she earnestly solicits the sup
port of the voters of this county ire

OBITUARY

After an illness of several weeks
which eliminated in meningitis, ia
cob Frank died at his home in Ogal-
lah, Kan, Friday morning, October
q, 1916. at 2:30 o'clock, being about
Sc years old.
Mr.. Frank was born in Illinois and
had lived at Rock Falls, H., up until
eight or nine years ago when he came
to Trego county, where he spent most
of his time up until his death.
Jacob Frank was a farmer on a
large scale during the time he lived
in or near Ogaliah, Kansas.
He had turned most of his atten-
tion to the raising of wheat, and had
at one time as much as 20OO acres
sown to wheat, he also took great
deal of interest in the raising of and
buying and selling of live stock, he
was very successful in the wheat
raising, his 1914 crop aggregated over
10000 bushels and his crop for this
year was nearly as much.
He had proven beyond doubt that
farming in Western Kansas is sue
cess if one will only put labor and
time into it. During his farming
operations he had employed scores of
men and paid out hundreds of dol
lars to these people for their services,
he indeed had done his share in help
ing to make this community a better
agricultural district.
But he had overestimated his ply
sicial ability, he was naturally of a
nervous, industrious disposition, and
the constant drain on his physical re-
sourSes eliminated in the run down
condition which caused his death.
He has gone from us, but we can
not help but feel that the impetus he
gave to industry will live on as an
example of what one man may do who
has the will and determination to be
success in whatever he undertakes
He endured his last illness with the
same fortitude that was character
istic of his whole life, and without
murmuring went out to the great
Unknown.
His brother Theodore Frank, his
neice May Frank, and his half sister
Mrs. Shields all of Rock Falls. ILL.,.
were with him at the time Of his
death, in fact his neice had taken
care of him and his home for some
time, while his brother was In con-
slant attendance on him for about a
month before his death.
His body rested in state at his
home in Ogallah, Kansas, during Sat-
urday afternoon, October %, where
mourning friends paid their last re-
spects, and on Sunday morning was
shipped and accompanied by his
brother, neice and sister to the home
in Rock Falls, Illinois, for burial.

ANSWERED THE LAST ROLL CALL

On Monday morning. October 3Oth,
William E. LaRue diedsat his home
in this city after several months of
failing health death being due to
paralysis.
He was born in Pennsylvania, Sep
TENDER %. lS4I. In 1864 he was mar
ried to Priscilla Kelly in Trenton, n.
j.
He held splendid war record and
did valiant service for his country.
He enlisted on the Union side and
served in regiment 20, company L,
Pennsylvania cavalry.
In April, 1879. he came to Kansas,
thus making him one of the pioneer
settlers of this country. Until 1906
he lived on his farm about twelve
miles northeast Of town, but at that
time erected comfortable residence
in Wa Keeney where he resided until
the time of his death.
Mr.. LaRue was one of the kindest
best men the writer has ever known.
He was never known to speak an i'll
word of any one and his dealings
with his fellow man we're scrupulous-
ly honest in every respect. 1t was
often said of him that his word was
as good as his note rare tribute to-
man these days. His kindness and
gentleness of spirit was manifested
to all and to our knowledge no one
has passed away in recent years who
was so universally loved and respect
ed as MI. LaRue.
For forty-seven years he was a
member of the Methodist church and
was always active in its service until
his hearing became so seriously i'm
paired that in later years he was not
able to take the part that he did
when younger, but he lived the life
Of consecrated christian and died in
the faith that he embraced in his
early manhood.
Besides his widow, one son and five
grandchildren he leaves no other rel
atives, all of his brothers and sisters
having preceded him TO the other
world.
On Wednesday afternoon the fun
eral was held at the Methodist
church and conducted by the pastor,
Rev. Woodward, who paid splendid
tribute to the deceased and spoke
words of comfort to the sorrowing
family. The services were largely at
tended by friends and neighbors
showing the esteem in which he was
held, and large company followed
the remains to the Wa-Keeney GENE
terry where the interment took place.
With their many friends the World
extends sincere sympathy to those
thus sadly bereaved.
To all those who SO kindly assisted
us in so many ways during the i'll
ness and at the time of the death Of
our loved one we wish to extend oul
heart felt thanks. Words are moi
adequate to express the appreciation
which we feel

There is no more important office
