 Dear Mrs. Wiidman: l have thought for some time that I would write to you a word of my appreciation Of yonr husband who was called SO suddenl { away only few weeks ago. If you will do so I would be glad for you to hand this to the papers for publication.
 Mir. R. M Wildman was my friend. He proved this by standing by me all the time when was his pastor. He was friend to God and Gods cause. He proved this by being faithful to the church. He was. if possible, ever present at the prayer meeting ser vices That can not be said of many men May the Lord increase the num- Der. When in the office. Mir. Wildman was all business. but l ever found him with big warm soul for his friends.
 The memory of the Sunday-night social meetings. after the evening ser vices. either in the parsonage or in his or the Anderson home will never be forgotten The tired pastor forgot that he was tired and felt the refresh ing that comes from the association of true friends love his memory. May God bless you. Mrs. Wildman. and the children and grandchildren whom he loved so dearly. He did love his home and his family Over wonder he has a home He enjoyed home here; he will enjoy home over "onder The first sure symptom of n mind in health, is rest of heart. and pleasure felt at home"

 There are lots of wide awake people there. The writer and Bro. Crossno of Webb City were there and to tell you the blame truth, Bro. Crossno stopped at Bro.

ing the striking packing plant en-
ployees.
According to Evans Clark, an official
of the bureau. number of clubs and
societies are being asked to unite in
supporting the proposition, the need
for which, he says, "has been clear
ly shown the public by the action
of the packers in raising meat prices
concurrent with the beginning of the
strike and then maintaining them at a
profiteering level through shutting out
increased sales by indie ependent packers
through the Big Five control of local
slaughtering areas"
New Workers. who have been forced
to pay as much as 80 per cent more
for meat over the prices previous to the
strike have had a striking demonstra-
tlon OF what little control this city has
over them and how much control is
dictated from Chicago's packing town, >
said Mr.. Clark. Had there been q
municipal abattoir here the Big Five
would not now be rorcing the New
York public to pay for their local
strike expenses
The proposal, he said, would be put
before the Board Of Aldermen in the
near future.
