A Prominent Grant Parish Citizen
and Civil War Veteran Dies
After Long Illness.

Altch Lung AAAuSoos
After being confined to his bed
for three years. Mr.. w. ]. Tison
died Sunday. January 2. at 4. p.
M, at his home on Sunnyside
plantation, at the age of "a years,
4 months and Is days.
He was born in Grant parish
near Dry Prong. August 15.
1916. At the age of Is he en-
listed as a volunteer in the 18th
Louisiana Infantry of the Con-
federate Army, where he served
until the close of the war. Soon
after his return, he married Miss
Elizabeth LaCroix. From this
union there are two children liv-
| ing bereaved: Mrs. John |. Rice
and Mr.. ]. E. Tison, Dry Prong.
La. After the death of his first
wife, he married Miss Laura =.
Satcher. She and eight children
are left to mourn his loss: Mrs.
j. 7. Guyton, White Castle. La. !;
Miss Maud G. Tison, Opeiousas,

AS we see these old landmarks
pass away. we feel that their
places among US can never be
filled. Few are there now re-
naming who served as he did as
a connecting link between the
stormy period Of the Civil War
and the peaceful. quiet times
which followed the days of Re.
construction. He lived a long
and useful life. laboring until
| the body became too weak to
sustain the impelling force Of
| effort.
In the quiet Parsonage Grave
yard he was buried, followed by
/ a concourse of relatives anc
friends who deeply felt the loss
of this patriarch.
Truthfulness and honesty were
his watchword. and we may tru
lly say that he lived and practicet
these virtues. K. 4.

Ancient Invention. Used on Motors

Perhaps the oldest design used In
the modern automobile is that of the
universal joint, which In principle Is
identical with the first universal de-
veloped by Cardan around 1920 A. ID.
Such joints are used in all modern
automobiles and trucks In order to al
low the propeller shaft to revolve and
at the same time move up and down
and sideways relative to the rear
axle. The axle bounces up and down
according to road conditions, but the
propeller shaft. must connect this
bouncing part with another unit at
tached to the frame of the car.
