In living memory Of our son and
brother, Mark M. Osworth who died
one year ago, October 5, 1918.
Gone, dear Mark, gone forever,
How we miss your smiling face,
But you left US to remember;
None on earth can take your place.
A happy home we once enjoyed,
How sweet the memory still,
But death has left lonliness
The world can never fill.
Within our hearts our service flag,
Thy golden stars forever shine.
Tho years may come and years
may 60,
Thy memory ever we enshrine.

Broke Into Cider Mill

Some one stole three barrels of
good vinegar from the south Bridge
street cider mill, last Thursday night
after the proprietor had closed up the
institution for the day and had locked
up the place and gone home. The
vinegar is worth rather fancy price
just now and the thieves made a val
liable haul. The parties who took it
used a motor truck to take the liquor
away with.

IN MEMORY OF
MRS. A. |. SPENCER

! think it proper that /, who knew
my dear wife best and to whom she
was most, should pay this last tribute
to her memory.
know, ''The air is full of farewells
to the dying, And MORNINGS for the
dead" So that whatever / may say
is without forgetfulness of so many
others in Belding and vicinity who,
within the last few months have lost
their loved ones. Husbands have
been taken from wives and wives
from husbands as never before in this
community. There is no consolation
in all this rather a deeper sense of
sorrow.
One writes that
"Other friends remain, That
Loss is common to the race
And common is the Commonplace,
And vacant chaff well meant for
grain"
"That loss is common would not
make
My own less bitter, rather more:-
Tco commoni Never morning wore
To evening, but some heart did
break"
To those of my friends who have
never lost a companion / say it is
the darkest hour of life and as age
steals on apace more murky and OBJ
scure all the horizon of our life be-
comes.
All the associations of forty three
years, all the little condolences, all
the plans as to what we would do,
all the little economies, how we would
do this and how we would do that,
pass as a panorama before my eyes.
Then comes that long procession of
regrets. hopes never realized, inten-
tions deferred, plans never consum-
mated and then the thoughts of my
wife leaving those whom she loved
and the things that she loved before
the natural cycle of her year was
complete.
In the month of June she was
stricken down just as the flowers she
loved so well were blossoming in her
flower garden. The weeks passed,
some choice phlox in which she was
much interested budded to blossom in
great profusion. They were fine in
various shades of red and pink and
variegated. One morning l took up
the garden hose to water them, the
hose fell from my hand as fearful
premonition came to me that she
would never again see her flowers, her
shrubbery, her lawn and trees. Sup
pressing my emotions / went to her
bedside to comfort her and from then
on was never out of her hearing but
a few minutes at time, til the end
came. Notwithstanding medical skill
and devoted attendance, as the weeks
went by she grew weaker and weaker
and her suffering more and more in
tense until on the 25th day of Septem-
ber at nine o'clock and twenty min
utes in the evening she sank into that
sleep that is eternal and profound.
Thus went kind and loying wife and
mother good and helpful neighbor,
an efficient and inspiring woman to
her rest, Beneath that low green
tent, whose curtains never outward
swing"
Thus in her sixty-fourth year died
Eva May, daughter of Sylvester
Thompson and Cynthia M. Whipple,
wife of Albert L. Spencer, mother of
Mrs. Ray r. Edwards and sister of
Mrs. Elvon G Lloyd.
For Myself.
with weary feet l loiter on,
Tho always under altered skies
The purple from the distance dies
My prospect and horizon gone"
Nevertheless
hold it true whate'er befall,
feel IL when sorrow most;
Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at al.

AUTOMOBILE TURNS
OVER THREE TIMES
GOING DOWN BANK
LOCAL MAN ONE OF PARTY IN
MACHINE BUT ESCAPES
WITH SHAKING-UP

An accident which might have prov
ed far worse than it did happened
just north of Wabasis hill, Sunday af-
ternoon at about five o'clock when
the new Dcrt automobile owned and
driven by John Tucker, of Grand Rap
ids. left the road and crashed into
a light fence which the road COM
missioners had erected at the road
side for the purpose of preventing
Just such accidents and when it went
over the embanl1ment and down into
the field below, it made three COM
plete turns before it landed, with its
occupants pinned beneath it overturn-
ed, more than 20 feet below tn top
of the hill.
In the car at the time Of the acci-
dent were John Tucker and Herman
Steckroth, of Grand Rapids and Will
Annis. of this city who were on their
way up to Greenville to visit at the
home of fuckers parents who live
there. The car had negotiated the
grade up Wabasis hill all right and
had got nearly to the second danger
Gus fill north of the hill when the
driver attempted to turn out so as to
let another car which was approach
ing them, pass by and when the ma
chine struck the loose dirt outside of
the beaten roadbed it kept on going
farther to the side until it reached
the fragile fence and went over.
A doctor from Greenville happened
to be going that way and crowd of
people soon gathered and assisted in
getting the men from under the ma
chine and the physician, took Tucker,
who appeared to be the more serious
ly hurt of the three men, to the hos
pital at Greenville where he was car
ed for until the next day and then
he was removed to the home of his
parents. Stackroth and Annis re-
turned to the latter's home in this city
They were badly shaken up but
escaped serious injury.
The windshield and top cf the auto
mobile were completely wrecked but
the machine was run into a garage
at Greenvlle under it's own power
Monday morning and will be repaired

having shipments of cattle from Ne
braska which he recently sold there.

the sale when the last bunch of six
steers were cried off by the auction
eer the bids were for eighty dollars
each take as many as the bidders
wanted. The bid was struck off to
John Gavin and he said he would take
five. The remaining steer was offer

having bid that amount.
There was a large turn out at the
