OBITUARY.

Irvie C. Curtis was born at Perrys-
burg, o., February 27, 1871: departed
this life August 20, 1918.
Iryie's health had been failing for
some time, but the disease had taken
no definite form until about two or
three weeks previous to his death,
when he suffered from most intense
headaches.
After weeks confinement to bed,
in which time he underwent the great
est possible suffering, he passed into
the great beyond.
The greatest part of his life was
spent in and about his old home town,
where he was known by all, through
his pleasant, genial manner and noble,
quiet life. His wonderful thought
fulness for others about him and his
sterling character made hosts of
friends who sorely miss him and
mourn his early departure.
He leaves a wife, four stepchildren,
two sisters and three brothers.

ORDER CAME AT LAST

Waiting for a call to the colors
was a tiresome task for Carlton
Finkbeiner, who enlisted last May
while he was a student in the o..
of NJ, but the order finally came
and Carlton left on Sunday for
Municipal Pier, Chicago, to answer
his call in the Naval Auxiliary Re
serve. Carleton was under 19
years of age when he enlisted and
his example might be followed by
many others who would thus
prove their worthiness of being
called American citizens.

British Ambassador Pre-.
pares to Return Home.
Hint of Successor.

Word has been received by the State
Department that Sir Cecil Arthur
Spring-Rice, British Ambassador, will
shortly return to England. 1t is pre-
dicted in diplomatic quarters that he
will not return to this country and
that his successor will soon be an
nounced.
Sir Cecil has been under the almost
constant fire of the NorthcIiffe papers
in England since war was declared.
1t is now predicted that a man more
IN accord with the Notfhcliffe views,
apparently views controlling now in
British politics, Will be selected. Sir
Cecil SpringRice will have been IN
Washington five years on May 6 next
and British Ambassadors seldom serve
longer than that time. 1t is stated,
in addition, that his health is poor
and that he will welcome relief from
the strenuous duties imposed on a
British Ambassador here during war
times.
Lord NOrthcliffe himself has been
mentioned as a possible successor to
Spring Rice. 1t is not believed, how
ever that he would accept a public
post. Lord Chief Justice Reading and
Mr.. Henderson, now here with the
British Financial Mission, are other
names heard here in connection with
the appointment.
