PIONEER
LAID TO REST

When the sad news was spread over
the city Sunday morning that Rev. j.
G. Dingle had suddenly passed away
at his home near the Chautauqua
grounds, it caused shadow of deep
sorrow to be cast over the city. He
had been in his usual health, although
recently he had not been looking very
were notified only to find that the hus-
been working hard this summer, as he
was engaged in small way in farm
ing, but how little his large circle of
friends thought of his passing away.
Saturday night he and his young son,
John, slept together and in the morn
ing when the young lad arose he tried
to awaken his father, but not being
able to do so the rest of the family
were notified, only to find that hte hus-
band and father had quietly passed
away during the night, apparently
without struggle or without a pain.
He just quietly went to sleep never to
awaken again on this side of the
grave.
Funeral services were held Tuesday
at 800 p. n., at the Methodist church
in this city, Revs c. E. Stinson Of this
city and James of Hannah, conducting
the ceremonies at the church and the
the Odd Fellows carried out the usual
rrutualistic form at the grave. The
floral offerings We're profuse and
beautiful, and the large number of
sorrowing friends and neighbors, who
followed the remains to their last rest
ing place only went to show the high
esteem in which deceased was held.
The deceased leaves a wife, four
daughters and three sons to mourn his
death. Mrs. Dingle is seriously i'll at
the family home, and was unable to
attend the funeral, but the sons and
daughters, who live in various parts of
the east and west, and Canada, were
nearly all present.
John G. Dingle was So years old at
the time of his death. He was born in
Hamilton, Ontario. After attaining
his manhood he chose the ministry for
his profession and for quarter of a
century had been engaged as preach
er of the gospel in various parts of
North Dakota, and at one time was
pastor of the Methodist church in this
city. About three years ago, owing
to poor health he gave up the ministry
and has been following other vocations
but it had been his intention to re-en-
gage in church work as minister.
Mr.. Dingle was a self made man,
and one who had the confidence and
: respect of all who knew him. During
} his whole life he had carried on work
, for the betterment and uplift of the
, community in which he lived, and now
. that he had passed to his reward, it
can be truly said: "Well done, good
and faithful Servant"
, He was a member of the local Odd
Fellows lodge and always took an ac-
) tive part in the work, and the men,
, bers of the order attended in a body
at the funeral and the services were
. under the direction of that body.

} the bereaved family their deepest
: sympathy in their hour of great af-

THE BLUEBIRD.

As you know, the bluebird is one oil
the first birds that come to us In the
spring.
According to the old Indian story: the
first bluebird was a brave, a young
man who had been changed by a wick
ed magician into a bird with red and
blue feathers just like the bluebirI. He
was TO be bird until some beautiful
maiden would consent to marry him.
One day Minda, a young Indian girl
whose father and six brothers had all
been killed by bad magician. was out
in the forest gathering sticks. The
bluebird few down to the branch of
the tree beside her, and Minda, who
had never seen a bluebird before, ad-
mired it. She was astonished when
the bird spoke to her, telling her that
he was young man who had been
turned into a bird. He asked Minda
to marry him. Though at first she
would not agree, she at last became
his wife. After that the hut in the
woods where Minda and her mother
and little brother lived was always
warm and comfortable. for the blue
bird, who had now become a handsome
young brave. hunted and fshed and
brought wood for the fire.
One day the old magician called and
asked the young man to run a race
with him. That was the way he had
killed Minda's father and brothers
Minda and her mother were frightened
when the young man agreed to race
with the old magician
The next day they all went to the
lake where the magician lived.
Now, it always happened that who
ever lost a race to the old magician
came rushing in at the end, knocked
his head against stone post and drop
ped dead. So the young man ran his
best and was as swift of foot as the
old man. The magician then changed
himself into a fox and passed the
young man. The young brave then
changed himself into a bluebird and
got in front of the old magician. The
magician next turned himself into a
wolf. then into a deer, then into buf
falo. After that he was unable to take
on any new forms, and the young man.
who was now bird and now man, won
the race. and the bad old magician ran
his head into the stone post.
MY work is DONE" the young brave
said to his friends. II must leave you.
Only my bride may go with me-"
Then he and Minda, his wife, were
changed into bluebirds. and they flew
away, singing as they went.
And they were the first bluebirds
Since then. so the Indians say. blue
birds have always been seen on earth
to cheer the heart of man each year
with their promise of the Punishment

VINES FOR SHADE.
What to Choose to Screen Your Porch
or Your Back Fence.

What to Choose to Screen Your Porch
! or Your Back Fence.
Vines for shading purposes require
dense growth. One Of the ways to get
this after the proper ones have been
selected is to insure good soil. plenty
of water and frequent cultivation.
Vines must make their growth quickly
and uninterruptedly to make good
screening or shading, and for this rea-
son hardy perennial ones are best.
To show rapid top growth a vine
must have a large root mass. This
can be assured by planting in a spe-
| cially prepared trench or pit excavated
| to q depth Of eighteen inches. If the
subsoil is hardpan or sticky clay,
drainage material consisting of broken
stones, large clinkers from the furnace
or other mineral rubbish should be
put in the bottom to a depth of three
inches
Dense growing vines are gross feed
ers and soon exhaust the soil in the
trenches if it is not naturally good and
kept up yearly. All those recommend
ed prefer a soil with an alkaline re-
action. which is secured by the use Of
lime. If a good soil is not available
make one from chopped up sods or
good garden loan, adding one-third
the bulk of well rotted horse manure.
For screening north porch there is
nothing better than the Dutchman's
pipe vine (aristolochia). a vigorous and
rapidly growing vine. bearing when
grown in sunshine brownish flowers
resembling pipe.
Another good vine for the north
porch is the new form of the Virginia
creeper. known as Ampelopsis engel-
manni with very dense foliage OF
light green color turning to crimson in
the fall.
Both these vines for shaded places
should be cut off a foot from the
ground every winter and new shoots
run up every spring. as this insures
a more dense growth of foliage
The bignoria when grown semi-dwarf
is a good vine for the trellis. 1t bears
profusely large trumpet flowers and is
a rank grower. 1t should be cut back
to foot in height annually as it tends
to make coarse stems if allowed to
grow at will.
The hop vines CHumulus hepulus) are
very good for screening from the sun.
growing very luxuriantly.
The euonymus is especially good for
low porches, where a dense shade is
desired. 1t is evergreen and of a deep
green color.
Many persons like honeysuckle for
shade. and it is good if properly
grown so that the foliage is well dis
tributed all over the vines. In order
to accomplish this it should be grown
on q trellis of wide mesh so that
it can be cut back to the porch
floor each winter and the old growth
removed. Frequent clippings during
the season will insure q continuance of
bloom during a longer period. The
best variety for screening is halleana.
yellow and white and very fragrant.
