Almost eevry member of the ia
mily likes homemade ice cream
but usually there are few VOLUNTEERS
who wish to devote the time and
energy required for freezing the
mixture by the usual craking pro-
cess. An ice cream freezer has been
developed which is operated from
the washing machine motor, or, il
preferred, a motor can be supplied
with the freezer.
Electric Pump Jack
The farmer who for electrical or
other reasons does not wish to in
stall an elaborate water system and
who has electric service on his farm
will be interested in an electric
pump jack, which will convert the
ordinary farm pump into an electric
pump. A push button switch starts
and stops the pump.

A TRIBUTE

To Gertrude Sherman Briggs, who
came to our community than
thirty years ago, a cultured young
woman, endowed with more than or
binary literary and musical talents,
and possessed OF a missionary spirit
Of passing them on to others. these
lines voice an appreciation which has
been gathering force thru all these
years.
The warm helpfulnsss which she
evoked in life has met the writer at
every turn. and many there are who
will not that her modest personality
should vanish with her life.
Hers was a pioneer service and she
left the community richer than she
found II. These later years of service
carried Mrs. Briggs into larger fields
OF activity and 1t is hard to estimate
the number of lives who bear more or
less distinctly the impriRt of her per-
sonality and influence.
Mrs. Briggs was one OF the first to
help formulate the proposition OF a
literary club in Miller. and from such
a center of culture has come u pres
eut. permanent plan Of a Lecture
Course. which in spite OF financial
difficulties. she with the help of others
preserved for us. and brot to its pres
ept stage of success. Thru the me-
dium of the Lecture Course we have
had brot To our community the high
est. best ard most educative form OF
entertainment. One secret OF her sue
cess in this work was her ability to
work tremendously with others.
ft was her study and delight in
Lyccum work. in which she had been
actively engaged for the past seven
years. to do the greatest possible good
to the greatest number. new thinking
OF herself, advantage. or convenience.
II was enough for her that others
we're made wiser. better, happier. at
whatever cost or toll or sacrifice to
herself. She worked for the JOY OF
doing and never saw her wi spiritual
beauty.
Knowing we'll one little trait OF a
persons character the whole indivi-
dual is revealed. We need not know
more than VIC do Of her painstaking
care in the performance Of little du-
ties. We have seen these traits grow
into a character that has left behind

community.
kindness. ~gentleness, ease and dig
nifty of manner were her marked char
acteristics. She seemed never to be
disconnected. never in a hurry. and
always ready TO meet all that was laid
upon her. which often meant giving
up social and friendly intercourse that
she might. be Of service to others.
We may not know the result OF this
life. but we can be sure her influence
will widen end widen into eternity.
