Ida Ellen Rubin was born near
Abilene. Kansas, Dec. 13, 1872, and
died in Abilene, Kan, Sept. 8, 1916,
aged 43 years, months and 27
days. May 1S, 1892, she was mar
ried to John w. Asling. Mrs. Asling
endeared herself to all with whom
she came in contact, her first
thought always being for others.
Her friends are numbered by those
who knew her. To know her was
but to love her, she was a devoted
and loving wife and mother, and
the life of husband and wife as
companions was a beautiful example
of true welded life. Mrs. Asling
was a member of the Baptist church
and a devoted Christian. Funeral
services were held from the home
on Sept. IL, at $3.50 and at 3 o'clock
at the Baptist church. The sermon
was preached by Rev. J. S. Thomas
who was assisted by Rev. DR.. Blay-
ney and Rev. r. Klitzing. The
music was rendered by Mrs. Gross,
Mrs. Dayton, and Miss Pearl Carver.
The pallbearers were: Messrs. Har-
vey Wenger, II. w. Heel, o. A.
Dentzer. H. w. Rohrer, Walter
Branaman and Lynn Covert. Mrs.
Asling leaves a sorrowing husband,
son, mother and four sisters. The
body was carried to its last resting
place in the Abilene cemetery. The
casket was covered by beautiful
flowers, tokens of esteem and love
from her many friends and loved
ones. The passing away Of so beau
tiful a life leaves earth poorer and
makes heaven richer The following
verse was selected by the departed
loved one;
Call not back the dear departed.
Anchored safe where storms are Ger.
On the border land we left her.
Soon to meet and part no more.
When we leave this world of changes
when we leave this world OF care.
We shall find our missing loved one

Mail Censorship a Ser

WILSON WILL WRITE NOTES

New York, Sept. 13.-The British
blacklist is being used as a whip
over American firms to force them
to discontinue trading with COM
panies and individuals who are I'M
der the ban of the allied govern
ments. Unable to destroy the bust
ness of blacklisted concerns in the
United States by prohibiting trade
with British subjects, Great Britain
has compelled American interests to
assist under threat of retaliation.
Every phase of New York's bust
ness life has felt the far reaching
effect of the British policy of black
listing, in shipping, banking, dry
goods, importing and exporting.
ANY firm refusing to agree to the
British desire to knife the blacklist
ed concerns in the back is subjected
TO similar treatment. Through con
troll of the sea and predominanee i
international trade Great Britain Is
able to enforce its demands.
American companies not in sym
pathy with the British plan, or even
those which have been injured,
hesitate to allow their names to be
used for publication. To do so
means a Tightening Of the screws.
