Obituary.

Eula May Clouser was born June
16, 1908. She fell asleep in Jesus
. June 26, 1918, at II p. m. She
was the third child and only daugh-
ter of William Clouser and wife of
the Zion neighborhood, and the joy
and sunlight of the home, and be.
cause Our ways are not Gods ways
1T now seems appallingly strange
, and almost unbearably sad that
this sweet young life is gone. Not
only was she the idol of the hearts
( of her parents. brothers, and grand
parents. She was also a universal
!favorite with old and young in the
community in which she lived, be.
loved by teachers and schoolmates,
and although just child deeply
interested in the improvement of
her mind, and all beneficent causes.
Only few hours before her death
she spoke of her cousin, (Lemuel
,Thomas) in France, and urged her
father to give freely to the Red
Cross movement. She was intelli-
gent far beyond her years, scoring
a much higher mark than the aver
age school child of her years, yet
as free of egotism as righteousness
10 of sin. Today this writer has a
little letter written by her more
than a year ago that would put
many a business man or woman to
shame as to correctness. Oh what
q void in the hearts, and in the
home of this darling child, and yet
how God loved them, to give them
at least for a time the radi
ance of her presence, and then take
her home to share His glory, for
THE Lord loveth whom he chas-
teneth."
In countless abiding ways do
they miss her, for all of the home
recalls the reality of her joyous,
loving, obedient. sweet life, and
we would not wish it otherwise,
for all the jewels of earth could
not take from these sad hearts
the precious heritage Of this
memory; neither take from these
sad hearts the great JOY to know
that she to-day is beyond the
censure and reproof and discipline
which needs must come to the
best of Gods children in this life,
and this day is in the city not
built with hands where all shad-
ows are forever barred and the
heart is filled with eternal gladness
Too bright and sweet and good tc
stay with us here she awaits u.s.
and how sweet at the bidding Of
God and the angels it will be tc
meet her once more.

GREEK GIRLS AS NURSES
HELP FELLOW COUNTRYMEN

Greek girls in the uniforms of Ameri-
can Red Cross nurses are now serving
in the hospitals of Greece. These girls
are part of number from New England
who, anxious to help their fellow coun-
trymen, decided to become nursing aids.
They enrolled Iii training courses in The
Massachusetts General hospital, and
other Boston hospitals, where they soon
became proficient in their work. Re-
Gently four of them, who had practically
completed their courses, decided that
they would like to go back to Greece
with the American mission, which was
just then about to leave. Through the
Greek legation they applied Tor per-
mission to go with this mission as mem
bers of the American Red Cross.
Z Now they are not only serving fhelr
own people, but are also creating a feel
ing in Greece which cernents the long
friendship Of the Greeks with, America.
Although no American troops have been
landed on Greek soil, the people are
pleased with the sight of
an American uniform, no matter what
branch of the service it represents.
Another group of Greek girls m Bos-
ton is taking up courses at Simmons
college, in dietetics, domestic science,
and home aid. These girls also expect
shortly to sail for Greece

DA|RY|NG PAYS
IN tATAH COUNTY
DEARY NEWSPAPER TELLS OF
PRICES PAID FARMERS IN
THAT SECTION FOR CREAM

E. F. Randall, of the local cream
cry, submits the following figures in
proof of the contention that dairying
will pay. They show what the cream
cry paid number of farmers for a
single can Of cream delivered by each
one:
Andrew Nelson, for one 8-gallon
can, $500; Gus Birchmier, for B.
gallon can, $3.50; Swan Swanson, for
for one 5-gallon can, 838; j. B. Hitch,
one 5-gallon can, 8.13; Anton Hanson,
for one 5-gallon can, $9.4O; Swan
Peterson, for one 5-gallon can, $3.50;
James Hamm, for 5-gallon can, $3.50.
The difference in the amount paid
for each is due to the difference In
the test. This shows in actual figures
what a few cows will bring in spot
cash at time when there is no other
income possible on the farm. John
Carlson will soon have ten cows fresh
and milking. A few more like him
would keep the creamery running all
winter.
In this connection it might be stat
ed that from the time it started up
this spring until the crops were put
onto the market the creamery sup
piled practically all the income the
farmers had, and the more cream
patron brought in during that time
the greater was his monthly income.
And right at this time when beans
and potatoes are not finding sale be-
cause of lack of cars and other reas-
ons, the man who sells cream is draw
ing a substantial monthly revenue,
where. if he did not sell cream, he
would be getting nothing. :.
Dairying is growing in this sec
ton More farmers are milking
cows now than last season, and a
good profit is being made in spite
of high prices for feed. Once they
begin to raise feed of the kind actual
lv needed the rest will be easy
