SUDDEN DEATH
B. ]. NICHOLSON.
One Of .Denison's Most Prominent
Business Men Answers Call Of
Death From Pneumonia
MANAGER OF PRODUCE COMPANY
Was Always Active in City Affairs and
Was Prominent Man--Will be
Greatly Missed

Residents Of Denison were shocked
to learn Of the death Of B. Y. Nichol-
son which occurred this morning at
about three o'clock at his home on
South Sweet street, following an Ill
ness Of less than weeks duration.
Z Mr.. Nicholson was taken sick Christ
mas day with the influenza seemingly
in q mild form, and he was getting
along so nicely that a physician was
not called. Yesterday however, his
condition became alarming and ply
stefan was called in when 1t was
found he was suffering with pneumon-
! Ia. and he passed away peacefully
at three O'clock. x
Benjamin Y. Nicholson was born in
Jerusalem. Ohio, October 8, 1868, his
parents being John 4. and Eleanor
! (Young) Nicholson. He came to Iowa
with his parents in 1864 when but a,
year old and remained resident Of
New Sharon until seventeen years Of
age, during which period he mastered
the branches Of learning that consti-
tute the public school curriculum. Am
abition to be up and doing for himself
led him to leave home and 60 to Vail,
Iowa, where he joined his brther,
George W., in the poultry, butter and
egg business. The partnership be-
tween them existed until the death Of
his brother few years ago. For the
past twenty-seven years, Benjamin Y.
Nicholson has resided In Denison, hav-
ing charge OF the business here most
Of that time. A few years ago, he and
his brother formed a stock company
and the large cold storage and ice
manufacturing plant was erected. This
the two brothers successfully operated
until the death Of George. Feeling
the responsibility was more than he
could alone assume. the plant was
sold to tine Armour Company, Ben
retaining considerable block of the,
stock. Together with M. G. w. Court
ney, he has been managing the big
plant for the past few years.
q on the 18th day Of May, 1888, Mr..
Nicholson was united in marriage to
Miss Lydia Maude Watson, who was
born IA England and was brought to
America by her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Nv. w. Watson, when quite young.
This union was blessed with six chill
dren, namely Clair W., Pearl E., now
Mrs. John Menagh Of this city, Ben

terment in Oakland Cemetery.

Mrs. VIM. Cook, a resident of Iowa
Falls, died at the home Of her broth
err, Homer Huckstep near Deloit on
Thursday, December 26th, following
a severe attack Of the influenza. Only
about three weeks ago this good wo-
man came from Iowa Falls to help
care for her brother and his wife who
were stricken with pneumonia. Help
to care for them could not be secured
to administer to her loved ones. She
was tireless in her work OF nursing
them back to health. About ten days
ago she contracted the influenza but
did not seem seriously i'll and the
physician expected her to make good
recovery However complications de-
yeloped and within an hour or two
after the physician had assured the
family that she was not dangerously
i'll, she suddenly ceased to live In the
flesh, apoplexy, supposedly being the
immediate cause of her death.
Edna Eugenia Huckstep was born
In Crawford county, September ~.
1881, being at the time OF her death,
81 years, months and 20 days OF age.
She was the daughter Of William and
Phoebe Huckstep being OF a family
of four children. She was born In
Milford township, where )she grew to
splendid young womanKood,t having
attended the public schools Of the
community.
On May %, 1900, she was happily
married to VIM. Cook and for two
years after their marriage, they lived
near Denison. In 1902, they moved
to Deloit. About this time, Mrs. Cook
was converted at a revival meeting
that was held at Milford Center school
house. Her husband almost immedi,
lately entered upon the Christian life,
both of them uniting with the MethO-
dist Episcopal church at DelOit.
For nearly fifteen years, Mr.. and
Mrs. Cook remained in that conrnuni-
.ty. Mrs. Cooks beautiful Christian
and splendid spirit OF help
fulness won for her the highest es-
TEEN. \, 3sa MA
Mr.. Cooks health failing, they left
the farm, and in June, 1917. they NOV
ed to Iowa Falls. There they were
happy and prosperous. Mrs. Cook
by her many kindnesses to those in
sickness and in need, and by her
faithfulness in the service Of her
Master was already exerting a most
helpful influence in the community

MAY LOCATE FACTORY HERE
Pauisen and Iwen Of schIeswig Look
inc for Site For Plant to Manu-
facture Hog Waterer.

A factory may be established in
Denison in the near future. Messrs.
Paulsen and Iwen of Schleswig who
have invented ashog and cattle water
|er which they are now marketing,
have been in Denison for the past few
days looking at available sites for es-
tablishing factory to manufacture
this farm necessity.
Several sites are under considers
ton but we understand that Messrs.
Paulsen and Iwen favor the old cleo
trio light plant which is located near
the North Western tracks. This they
believe to be the most suitable loca-
ton and particularly adapted to their
present needs.
The tanks are now being manufac-
tured by a firm in Council Bluffs but
Paulsen and INen are anxious to es.
tablish plant Of their own and thus
reduce the cost OF manufacture con-
siderably. The waterer is one of the
most popular on the market and the
sales are increasing by leaps and by
bounds. Members Of the Commercial
club are particularly anxious to have
this plant located in Denison and be-
lieve that it will be well, worth while
to make the firm an inducement to
locate here The company will en-
ploy several men to start with and as
their sales increase. the plant will he
enlarged. We are advised that our
business men intend to put the matter
up to the city council and have them
lease this property, which is now Idle,
for a term of wears at nominal rental

Each Generation Should Build For
Itself or Pay Off Debts.

The members of the Bethel A. NJ.
E. church of Dallas are to have a
new church edifice, modern both with
the keeping of the growth of the
membership and that ofthe great
growing city.
For that specific purpose and
of making the house of the Lord the
first of devine temples, and to make
it suitable for the present generation.
The generation that has past done
nObly their work under circumstances
more adversed than that of the pres
Nent, and only a few faithful men,
bers of the past or last generation
now remain, and their work has lapp-
ed over into the present and has
afforded shelter for this generation,
when the fact is that each generation
should build for itself. not depend
upon what the parent generation has
done, and then if it does, it should
build some other kind of instruction
in keeping with the generation in
which it lives. Then if it does not
build for itself, it should pay off the
the debts left incumbent upon it, if
any has been left, and there ought
ton should build for itself.
For the purpose of gathering funds,
the whole membership of the Bethel
church has been thrown into group
ing units, revolving round a cen
trail unit of financial radiation, reach.
ing every member of the church. The
initial effort of the working units
was available on the last Lords day
when a splendid begging was had in
collecting a snug sum as a nucleus
for the greater Bethel edifice, when
members walked up and paid the
first quarter of a hundred dollars
to show their spirit and disposition
toward this modern Bethel which is
to be constructed in the early days
of the next year
The Sunday school, under the
management of Mrs. Julia Caldwell
Frazier, has also been thrown into
grouping unit that it may do it
part of the work looking to the build
ing of the greater Bethel edifice, and
it is expected that the work will go
forward without tagging. if organiza-
ton counts for anything in a great
movement
The Rev. DR.. II. A. Carr, the pas
tor and leader of the construction
committees of grouping units. is the
moving and directing spirit in con-
nectiOn with one of the best finan-
ciers in the city and with others who
have had considerable experience in
financial matters. The motto is now
for modern edifice for Bethel.

SURVEYING PARTY BUSY

The state surveying party who are
working on the Federal Aid for the
primary road system through Audu-
bon county are busily engaged in
the south part of the county. The
chief and two rod men, one of whom
is Guy McFadden of this city, will
be busy on the NJ. C. Trail for per-
haps period of four months. This
road follows the old established Ov-
erland Highway which has just been
remarked the NJ. c. Trail and will in
all probability be the first paved
road north and south in Iowa.
There will be available for Audu-
bon county during 1920 a total of
$4,000 which will be used on the
primary road system. In a great
many counties of the state elections
have already been held to determine
whether or not roads shall be paved
and also bonds voted to complete
the work. This matter has not yet
been submitted in this county, but
there seems to be ground for the be-
lief that the matter will carry when
ever the matter. is presented to the
voters. In eight-tenths of the coun-
ties Of the state where elections have
ben held, the result has been favor
able.
Audubon county is pursuing the
right course. They are doing the
preliminary work now so that when
the time comes everything will be in
readiness. 1t will OF course be i'm
possible to pave all of the roads in
one season In aonther year ma
terial may be on the toboggan and
then re will got the advantage of
better prices. Audubon county, how
ever, will not stand in the way of
this much needed improvement
when the time comes regardless of
the cost.
