ENTERED INTO REST
Horace I'll. GOldSWOrthy

Horace H. GoldsWorthy died in
Twin Falls, Idaho, Aug. 20, 1920,
after an illness of five weeks, typhoid
pneumonia and complications.
This young man was one of the
finest boys born and raised in Miner
al Point; the youngest son of r. II.
(Sonny) GoldsWorthy. He gradua-
ted from the High School in the class
of 1907, and went to Metropolitan
Business College in Chicago; then
worked for the A. G.. McClurg Co.
until with his father and mother ana
brother Harold he migrated to Idaho
settling with them on an irrigated
ranch near Rogerson. In subsequent
years he engaged in the automobile
business and building contracting III
Twin Falls. He had just built a fine
home for his family in that city when
death came.
By marriage he was united to Nell
ly MickleWaite, of Twin Falls, in
1913. A son, Fred, six years old,
survives with the wife. The relig-
ious faith and devotion of the de-
ceased were expressed in his confir-
nation in Trinity Episcopal Church
of Mineral Point, where he took an
active part in the boys choir and
the church work He was member
of the B. P. O. E. in which he took
membership only shortly before his
death. This order had charge Of the
interment in Twin Falls, Sunday af-
ternoon, Aug. %. The Rev. Alex G.
Bennett, pastor Of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, also son of Min
eral Point, conducted the funerar
service and spoke in friendly and in
innate way of such worthy young
manhood as Horace /eXemplified ana
the hopes of enduring life.
Horace Goldsworthy is remem
bered as a boy of kind heart, dutiful
at home, of friendly disposition,
whose days in the Old Home Town
were his bright and happy recOllec-
ton. He became man of the same
characteristics, esteemed in the
Great West as he was back East,
quiet, generous, sturdy for right,
and now mourned sincerely. Thru
out his illness he was accomplishing
and faithful even unto death. He
was buried beside his mother who
preceded him to the mystical realm
four years ago. Father and brother
with the wife and little son, are sore
ly stricken by this bereavement.

WOMAN'S OPPORTUNITY

Woman, with right to the
franchise, has a glorious oppor-
tunity in this campaign. The IS
sue is clearly and sharply drawn
between the forces of action and
the forces Of reaction: between
the men who are resolutely set
upon steadfastly going forward,
and day by day working out a
better and still better dem0cra-
CIV, and those who would go back
to normal, and, in many respects
bad old political conditions.
Cox stands for the League OF
Nations Covenant, the great
peace charter Of mankind, anc
he stands for forward looking,
responsible leadership in the
presidency; while Harding is a.
gainst the peace covenant,
framed by the worlds greatest
statesmen, and he stands for
subserviency to senatorial bar
ons. If the contest were to De
decided by men Of single hearted
thought for the people OF the
United States and the world the
result would not be in doubt !;
but too many enter into the
great referendum with their
hearts and minds controlled by
Old World fights and feuds.
And to some men the great
right of the franchise has be-
come common place.
With this condition confront
ing us, the Liberals in this great
struggle appeal to the good Wo-
men of the country to come and
help us put across and make
good in civil life the great vic
tory for peace which was won by
force of arms in the great Worlc
war, and so work out a better
and better democracy.
This is your great opportun-
ity, good women. Avail your
selves of it.
