going to be something stirring for
those who join the crowds at the
Grand. The program is double
one-Ben Turpin and jolly Moran,

new one of those Sheriff Nell come
dies, Tanning Target Centre a
western fun thriller. and Chas. Ray
In Ellis Mothers Boy" The latter
is his newest Paramount play, di-
rected by Thos. H. Ince. Totally I'M

he has played and which one expects
him to portray in "His Mothers
Boy" he turns from timid, shrink
ing boy, who has been tied to his
mothers aprons strings, into a fero-
cious bully and returns his rivals
blows with such effectiveness that
the battle is soon over.
Wallace Reid and Geraldine Far
rar, with their superb supporting
cast. appear tonight at the Grand in
"The Devil Stone" Besides these
brilliant stars there are Hobart Bos-
worth, Tully Marshall. Mabel Van
Buren, and other screen notables.-

Death of Glen Peacock.

Last week we made a brief men
ton Of the death OF, Glen Peacock, e
former we'll known Deborah boy at
his home in Everett, Washington on
Nov. 9, and a COPY OF the Everett
paper contains the following notice
of his death:
Glen F. Peacock, reported danger
ously i'll with pneumonia yesterday
afternoon, succumbed to the disease
early last night at the family homo,
1922 Colby avenue.
He was one OF the best known and
best liked young men of Everett,
and had wide circle of friends. Mr.
Peacock vas employed by the Puget
Sound Log Scaling bureau as scaler
in which work he was highly efiic-
lent. He held membership in the
E1ks' lodge OF this city.
When among strangers Glen Pea
cock attracted attention because OF
a rather remarkable facial resemb-
lance to President Wilson"
Glen was born near Burr Oak and
was SO years and one month old
when death claimed him. The FAM
ily- moved to Dccorah when he was
a young boy and he grew to manhood
here and had a host of friends, and
Ill liked him for his sterling worth
and character. He is survived by his
bereayed wife and two adopted chill
dren, and one sister, Mrs. Blanche
Shaw, OF Minneapolis. His parents
passed away some time ago.
The funeral was held from the
Elks home, and interment was in
Evergreen cemetery.

In Memory of Mory Lloyd Delaney.

In Memory OF MOry Lloyd Delaney.
Across the sea, so far away
n Our dear one breathed his last,
And now beneath the fleur-de-lis
Mory is sleeping fast.
He left his home one day in May
Thinking heAmight return
And often times since that fair day
We for our dear boy did yearn.
His country called him-he replied:
Il am willing to go,
For the dear flag others have died
And suffered veal and woe.
You know the boys won't all come
home,
/ may be- one to fall
But Gods also across the foam
And He remembers all.
Dear mother, it is hard | know,
But duty must be done"
How defiantly he faced the foe,
AS he proudly shouldered his gun.
Death in battle was not his fate,
But sickness claimed his life.
Now he is at the Pearly Gate,
Forgot are war and strife.
Then sleep on, thou, SO dear to all,
Beneath the fleur-de-lis,
Until the last bugle shall call
On the Eternal Day
M. M. II.
