ATIIENS

The entire community was shocked
and saddened by the sudden death
last week of Mr.. Charles Robinson,
young man 35 years of age and
much respected by all, Life had
seemingly but just begun for him.
Two years ago he was happily mar
ried to Mrs. Vira Allen. This care
ful industry was beginning to be evil
dent in many different directions. He
had but recently purchased added land
in order to carry out his plans for a
more extensive production of crops,
but so it is in this life: Man proposes
God disposes." His wife and family
have the sympathy of the entire com
munty in this saddest of all sad
hours.
"Sorrowing hearts who dumbly in
darkness and all alone
Sit missing a dear lost presence and
the JOY OF a vanished day;
Be comforted in this message, that
our own are forever our own,
And God who gave the precious gift
He take it never away"

for the members of the ecc estiasti-

accredited 20 the Vatican, and the
members of the Swiss, Palatine and

passed through the corridors, He was
assisted in the mass by several cardi-
mails and a male choir of 80 voices
which sang without instrumental ac-

many clauses which were impossible

There are 60 absurdities in the
proposed Treaty. One of these takes
away all our wood and iron ore, while
another demands that we give wood
and ore to the Austr.ans. What
effects our people most is the loss of
territory. AS for the economic con-

them. so they can not matter so
much If man asks me to pay ten

a billion, know / can't comply, and
so should not worry"
The depressing effects of the treaty
are evident in Budapest. Wines are
