WAR EXHIBIT FOR
STATE FAIR DELAYED

The exhibit Of war materials which
the Government has been preparing
for the Missouri State Fair will be de-
layed somewhat, according to a tele-
gram received by F. B. Mumford, dean
of the University of Missouri College
Of Agriculture and chairman of the
Missouri Council of Defense, from W.
S. Grifford, chairman of the Council
of National Defense. The exhibit will
be much larger than it was contem-
plated at first. All the departments
of the Government will take part and
various other agencies are co-operat-
ing in making up the exhibit. The ex-
hibit will be sent to about 80 State
fairs. Dean Mumford has informed
Mr.. Grifford that plans will be tenn
porarily held up until further informa-
ton can be had concerning the exhibit.
However, he has urged that the ex-
hibit be rushed, since the Missouri
State Fair will be earlier than most
of the other State fairs.
The University of Missouri will
have an exhibit at the State fair this
year. The College of Agriculture will
have its usual exhibit but in addition
it will emphasize food conservation.
W. H. Hargrove of the Agricultural
Extension Service will have charge of
the exhibit of the College of Agri-
culture.

"Grandpa" Scince died at the home
of his grandson, James Gegg, at 1880
o'clock Monday morning, July 30, at
the age of SO years, IL months and
10 days. Mr.. Scince had been in fee
Bile health for some time, due to his
advanced age, but it was not until
Wednesday evening Of last week that
he felt really bad. He gradually grew
worse and at the time above stated,
the final summons came. Mr.. Scince
was born in Baden, Germany, on
August IS, 1927. AT the age of 20
he was called for service in the army.
He took part in the revolution of
184S and continued to serve his country
for six years. On Christmas day in
1853 he came to America and landed
in Ste. Genevieve. From there he
went to New Offenburg, and on May
| 81, 1854, went to Pilot Knob, where
he was employed in the mines for sew
eral years, after which he returned to
Ste. Genevieve county. In 1854 he
was married to Miss Pauline Gegg,
and to this union was born one son,
Joseph Scince, now residing at Flat
River. After the death of his wife
in 1855, Mr.. Scince again married in
1856, Miss Eva Wegand, and this I'M
ion was blessed with two children,
Katherine (Mrs. John Gegg), and
Mary Mrs. Frank Gegg, deceased).
After the death of his second wife
in 1899, he made his home with his
daughter, Mrs. John Gegg, until De-
cember a, 1914, when he went to live
with his grandson, Lawrence Gegg,
where, strengthened by the sacra
ments of the Catholic church, whose
devoted son he had been from his ear
ly youth, he passed away peacefully,
survived by II grand children and 10
great-grand children. The funeral
took place on Tuesday morning at
$3.50 to S. S. Philip and James Church,
River Aux Vases, where services were
held by Rev. Broeckelman, after which
the body of this good old man was con-
veyed to the Parochial Cemetery and
laid to rest. The large concourse Of
relatives and friends who gathered to
pay their respects to their departed
friend, is splendid evidence of the
high esteem in which he was held.
May he rest in peace.
