has never been an off ce seeker, in
the common acceptation of that
term, but whenever called upon
by his Parish aud State, he has
never failed to cheeriully respond,
with his great ability and energy,
oftentimes at sacrifice to his
personal blu ,iness.
His record as vice-president of
the State Board of Health bespeaks
loudly his praise for fidelity to

parish of St. Mary. During the
epidemic of typhoid fever on M
tiIda plantation, in the upper end
of the Parish, Dr.. Smith took
charge OF the difficult situation,
treated the eiok (4il poor people,,
cured most of them and eradicated
the disease without any personal
charge for his medical treatment.
Really, it is not necessary for Us
to recount his merits as physi.

in the record of his life. The peo-

them, and will record their votes

TIMES REPUBLICAN. MARsHALLTOWN IOWA: MAY ~ 1916

BY Carl Brioe and President r, L.
Beard And Secretary John Hynek, OF
the trail association, drove down to
Sheridan where sthey were surprised to
meet about forty OF the leading busi-
ness men Of Grinnell. who had come
out fortified with arguments why the
trail should pass thru Grinnell. The
committee suggested that they would
have to be shown after 30 much action
had been demonstrated by the Malcolm
boosters and SO II was arranged for q
joint trip to Grinnell via Chester Gem
ter. After Grinnell was reached the
routing committee had a desire to see
the rest of the road as far 81 Oskaloosa
and accompanied by three auto loads OF
Grinnell boosters. the Tama car took up
the trail over the Union route to os-
kaloosa. Two of the Grinneil cars
turned back at Blue Point but the car
driven by Or. G. H. Lauder, of Grim
nell, and accompanied by car full OF
road enthusiasts attended the commit
tee all the way to- Oskaloosa and back
via Montezuma and Malcolm.
The final decision has not been an
nounced by the committee but II they
allowed their appreciation of the fine
spirit exhibited by the Grinnell men to
sway their judgment there would be
no question about the route. But NAL
com has come to the front with nearly
a hundred members for the association,
providing 1t comes their way, so they
must be taken into account. Monte
yuma Is the only town on either route,
which has failed to show interest In
the trail and Mayor Eichorn, Of Nal
com. has promised to undertake the job
Of awakening interest there this week.
