OBITUARY

Per AXel Erickson was born in Wit
terskoga, Skinnskatteberg socken, Vast
manlands Lam, Sweden, April 14th,
1890, and passed away at the Warren
City Hospital at 2:30 o'clock Monday
morning, Sept. 18th, 1922, aged 80
years, months and 2S days. "a
Deceased arrived in America Nov.
10Th, 1916, coming direct to Oak Park
township to the home of his sister,
Mrs Ellen Johnson, which place ever
since has been his earthly abode,
Quite suddenly was Mr. Erickson
summoned to the great beyond. While
engaged in threshing illness overlook
him and day or so later, or Tues
day, Sept. 5th, he went to our hos
pital in Warren for doctors attention,
returning the same day seemingly well.
On the following Saturday, however, he
again left for the hospital, where, as
stated above, he passed away on Mon
day morning the 18th. Quietly and
in the zenith of manhood came Deaths
angel and ushered "beyond the river"
another precious soul. Oh, that we
were truly wise and hearkened dill
gently unto the divine admOnition in
Gods ever-abiding and life-giving
word "Take We heed, watch and pray:
Tor We know not when the time is"
Well liked by many, both young
and old, Mr.A Brickson's friends were
numerous. Rightly understood this is
an achievement worthy our approval
and goal we should all aspire to at
tain. SO far as is consistent with
the Word of God we should seek ia.
vor with all. eff it be possible, as
much as lieth in you, live peaceably
with all men," And while it is prob
able that we shall not always fully
succeed, nevertheless if we are faith
full stewards of the manifold graces
of God, we may still know that "Jesus
wonderful If to us "the resources
of the Christian life are just Jesus
Christ" then may we with mistaken
certainty 'be ready always to give all
answer to every man that asketh us
a reason of the hope that is in us
with meekness and fear. Having
good conscience: that, whereas they
speak evil of us, as of evil doers, they
may be ashamed that falsely accuse
our good conversation in Christ"
Radiant with joy and with heart
firmly established may the Christian
then burst forth and sing:
Il have Friend-you ought to know
Him,
He is Savior tender and true;
Jesus, my king-how l adore Him!
And He should be as precious to
you.
1 have Friend-you ought to know
Him,
Will you believe and trust Him to-
day?
Waiting He stands, tenderly pleading
I am the Life, the Truth and the
Way"
Preceded in death by his father and
two brothers in Sweden, deceased is
survived by his mother, Mathiida An
derson, and brothers Gustaf. Karl and
Magnus in Sweden and his sister, El-

SHAM SOLIDARITY
Rejected By Labor in Can.
ada

Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada a-The
Trades and Labor Council has unan-
imously rejected the invitation of the
workers (communist) party of Can
ada that the trade unions join with it
in a May day celebration. The coun-
ell endorsed the report of its execu
tive committee which opposed accept
ing the invitation ''inasmuch as the
workers party of Canada is COM
munist organization, affiliated with
and taking it's instructions from Mos
COW and that the avowed object of
this organization is to destroy exist
ing political and industrial organiza-
tions of the workers, replacing them
by organizations of revolutionary
character"
In urging acceptance of the invita-
ton two communists pleaded with the
unionists to "at least present show
of solidarity" This was received with
laughter by the unionists, who re-
minded their visitors of their attempt
to smash the trade union movement
in 1919 by establishing a so-called
one big union, which has since dis
appeared.
IF you favor solidarity of the
workers, stop attempting to destroy
the workers organizations" said the
unionists.

THE ITNEY DRIVERS

A driver of a jitney bus failed to
come to a complete stop at rail
road crossing last Thursday, and rail
road men testified that they had to
bring freight train to dead stop
to prevent collision. At the time
the bus carried Ia passengers. The
driver was arrested and Judge Kautz
fined him $50, revoked his right to
drive for 30 days, and gave him a
suspended Jail sentence of 30 days.
While the punishment meted out was
pretty strong, yet it was none too
severe for case of this kind. The
lives of the jitney bus riders must be
protected. 1t has been noticed that
a few of the drivers of late have be-
come careless of this rule, and haven't
been observing it strictly 1t is to
be hoped that the lesson taught in
this case will have far-reaching
effect, and stand the riding public and
drivers in good stead in the future.

AMNESTY
For Political Prisoners Urg.
ed By Lawmakers

Washington. - Fifty congressman
from 21 states have petitioned Presi-
dent Harding to release all prisoners
convicted under the espionage act for
expression of opinion and not overt
acts.
The signers include Hamilton Fish,
Jr., and Thomes Jefferson Ryan, both
of New York, who were decorated in
France for valorous conduct. The PEE
tition reads:
We, the undersigned members of
the house of representatives, desire
to express to you our earnest hope
that you will proclaim at the earli-
est possible moment a general amnes-
ty for all persons woh have been
arrested or convicted under the es-
pionage act and whose only offenses
were in the nature of expressions of
opinion and not of overt acts.
MANY of these persons were SEN
fenced to terms of Imprisonment more
severe than those inflicted for SINH
lar offenses by any other countries
engaged in the war They are still in
prison, although every other country
in Europe has released prisoners of
the same class. We believe that the
great republic can afford and ought
to be equally humane. In the inter
ests of an era of good feeling for
which you, Mr.. President, are so earn
estly working, we express the hope
that you will proclaim general am
nesty for political prisoners whose
only offense was written or spoken
opinions and not any overt acts
against the government"
