VAIL, la, Especial to the Review
Our community was sadly shocked
on Saturday morning when word was
spread that one of our most estimable
young women had passed away. Beu-
lah B. White, Oldest daughter of Clark
w. and Ada Tefft-White, was born
near Vail, Iowa, Nov. ~, 1889, and
passed to life eternal May II; 1918,
being in age, 2S years, 5 months and
% days. Her childhood and girlhood
and young WomanhoOd were spent on
the farm home. one-half mile east of
Vail, and recently she moved with her
parents to Vail where the summons
came after many days of patient suff-
ering.

brother, Howard and sister. Evelyn,
and her atlianced husband Lloyd T..
Wier besides other relatives, frater-
nal sisters and brothers and many
friends. In the home circle, Beulah's
place can never be filled. her will
ngness to serve her loved ones can
never be forgotten. Being of more
than ordinary artistic ability. it was
her delight to beautify the home with
the work OF her skilled fingers.
In the Order of the Eastern Star. of
which she was Worthy Matron in 1917,
she will be remembered as having
lived life eXemplified by the hero
ines of the Order. Her good cheer and
kind smile will be sadly missed by
her friends, both young and old. Al
ways willing to do her utmost in the
home or social circle, never leaving
undone what would add to the pleas
ure of others, the beauty in her life
will not soon be forgotten. Thus we
lose another dear one-one whom to
know was to love and honor, for
in her frail body, dwelt the virtues Of
|frankness, generosity, loyalty and
truth.
Funeral services were held from the
Presbyterian church Monday morning.
lat 1000 o'clock, Rev. S. J. Huffman
officiating.
She was laid to rest in the Vail cem-
etery. The pal-bearers were Kendall
Dobler, George Dieter, Walter Mean
drews, Earl Hoffman, Henry Minter
and Leon Kral. Those from distance
who attended the funeral were: Mrs
Edgar Jackson, Miss Faye Ratchford,
the Misses Regina and Margaret Mol

The boches made raid on a part
of the trench held by Lieutenant
Parsons company. 1t was surprise.
"Forty-two OF them," said the lieuten-
ant, "were almost on us before we
saw them. They were yelling to the
'Americanos' to come out, to surren-

not surrender. Their leader threw a
rolling pin shaped grenade at our
captain. 1t struck his helmet, glanced
off and exploded across the trench.
The impact rolled our captain over.

burly boche. The bullet went clear
through his body and also killed the
man just behind him. Meanwhile the
rest of us were busy and we stopped
them. We lost eight men, but they
left thirty-four of their number lying
prone in front Of our trench"
"Your Iowa boys suffered most" "
said Lieutenant Rowman, but they
were quite distance from us and we
did not learn the details, or the num-

Lieutenant Rowman told us of a
wild night lie spent in front of the
trench. At two points our barbed
wire entanglements had been blown
up by the evenings shells. leaving
two gaps, each some twenty feet wide.
Those gaps were inviting to the
boche. They afforded opportunity for

to take detail of men and close them

Mr.. Porter, Of Denison Storage Bat
terry Co., Says Convenciences Draw
Electricity From the Batteries.

Extra lights, trouble finders, cigar
lighters and other such attachments
on motor car are, no doubt, great
conveniences, but they may cause q
motorist considerable troubles unless
he gives attention to his battery.
These appliances all draw electricity
from the battery and often the gener-
ator on the car is not adjusted so that
it will replace the current they use
and thus overcome the heavy drain ON
the battery. AS consequence the
motorist may find that his starter Is
imperative, and cigar lighters are cold
comfort when you must crank your
car by hand. The best way to elimi-
nate such trouble is to have a compe-
tent battery man look over the car
and see if such devices are overload.
ing your battery.
"You do not need to pass up such
conveniences," says Mr. Porter, the
local representative of the Willard
Storage Battery company, IF YOU have
your battery taken off your caI and
recharged at proper intervals. The
cost of recharging is small, but 1t ID
the price one must pay for added cleo
trio attachments. if he wants to keep
away from trouble and Inconvenience"
