IN MEMORY OF WADE.

Wade Martin died at the home OF
his father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs
X. b. Martin, Saturday morning,
January 25th., at 1870 o'clock, after
short, but violent attack of pneu-
monia, following influenza. Funer-
al services were conducted by
Rev. r. b. Neel. assisted by Revs.
Chester Stevens and Russell Walker,
at Green River church, near Crom-
well, where the remains were laid to
rest, Sunday afternoon, at one
O'Clock.
Wade was born January 3rd., 1908,
professed faith in. and acknowledged
himself a follower of the Christ in
March. 1917 and at once united with
the local Baptist Church, of which he
was member when called upon to
make the journey over the dark river,
cup yonder."
1t was the lot of the writer, per-
haps to know more of Wade, and of
his ways, than any person, aside from
his immediate family. for several
several years. our home, from even
tide until bedtime was as often his
home as was that of his father. For
thirteen years or more, we have been
nearest neighbors to the Martin fam
lily, divided only by an open alley or
driveway.
When Wade was learning to talk.
the best he could do in pronouncing
my name was to lisp "Tins." To
make it easier for him I forbade his
using Mr." and to the last time he
spoke to me. just shortly before he
passed away, it was still Tins" So
far as / know there was not a break
or hitch in our friendship. He Of
ten called me his pal" 1t made no
difference with our young friend as
to who was for or against me, he
never forsook me and was for me, al
ways, expressing his pleasure and
congratulations when he imagined
success of any character had befallen
to me. He often made a confidant of
me, telling me Of his little. imaginary
troubles as well as Of his incidents of
pleasure. Such was our friendship,
the Boy of 16 and the Man of near,
so. Wade was brim full of energy
and self confidence, the latter, by
some, perhaps, would be termed
fault, but self confidence and energy,
coupled with honor and loyalty are
attributes that go to make up sterling
manhood, and of these characters
tics he was plentifully endowed.
To the family we extend our deep
est and truest sympathy, and we know
that Wade, the dutiful son, the broth
err, left void unforgetable and hard
of erasure, while differently of
course, yet he will be missed but little
less by those in the home just across
the Alley.
We trust that the family, our
friends and readers will pardon the
personalities and self illusions in this
little token of our esteem. but we just
could not think or write in any other
manner. we didn't try, in fact we
didn't want to. w. S. T.

Indiana, had an unpleasant expert
ence Saturday. Mr.. Martin received
a telegram from Beaver Dam an
nouncing the death of Wade Martin.
Esquire Martin has a son named
Wade, as his brother, Ranse, had a
son of the same name. The party
sending the telegram ommitted to
mention which Wade Martin had
died. and the Squire was uncertain
until he arrived at Beaver Dam
whether his son or nephew was dead.

higher courts of this world or those
of the world to come.

The invitations were forward
ed by, w. A. Anderson, secre-
tary of the commission, to H.
NJ. Aune, secretary of the State
Federation at Grand Forks.
The invitation to the union
leaders to perfect their organi-
cation is significant in that
more than the mill at Drake is
embraced. 1t applies to all
state mills and elevators and
o1her industries, it is conceded,
because the action of the COM
mission sets the precedent that
will rule in the future.
Both Governor Frazier ant?,
John n. Eaean, commissioners
Of agriculture and labor, cx-
pressed themselves as willing
to abide by any fair regulations
as to working hours and wages,
that the men at Drake might
propose. It Was pointed o1;t,
however, that these regulations
