Lawrence POulson died at a 10
cal hospital at PAS a. m. Mon.
day, March 26, after an illness OF
only four days. Thursday morn
ing, the 22nd he awoke his older
brother and said he had a terrible
pain in his head. He had not
felt well for several days. and
had been i'll several times during
the winter from diseases that
epidemic. Saturday he was
taken to the hospital. He became
unconscious after a time but suf-
fered excruciating pain until
death relieved him. Encephalitis

renee has attended the local
school for the last seven years.
He was a lively boy who loved
and was loved by his companions.
He had unusual talent in music
and took active part in the work
If several musical organizations.
His sudden death was a rude
shock to a host of friends and a
stunning blow to his family and
'elatiyes. Lawrence entered into
ife with zest and joy and was of
friendly, kindly nature, such as
will be sorely missed.
Because of the remote POSSIBLE
ty of contagion, the casket was
.ot taken into the Catholic church j
there Requiem high mass was
cad by Rev. Father Benedict, at
AS wednesday morning. Private ]
ervices were conducted at the ]
ONE as well as the Degree of

pie to the town and the rural part
Of the district and thus enhance
the value of property. Long be.
fore now it has been pointed out
that while schools cost money
they are worth money and become
a permanent asset if kept up to
standard. The people of the dis
trict have been broad guage and
loyal in their support of the
schools, believing that the welfare
of the schools comes ahead of
many lesser considerations.
Problems Ahead
The school board is never done
with its work or it's problems in a
district with a large school census
and limited revenues. Next year
the district will have the option of
rebonding a large part of its in
%debtedness and this will be a
piece of important business. The
tuition policy is something else
that calls for thorough familiarity
with the situation. Getting the
money due the district from tax
delinquencies is another intricate
matter. Supt. Livingston has
made a special study of this. Mr..
Herman, chairman Of the board,
was recently placed on the execu-
tive council of the State School
Board association and his reelec-
ton to the local board will mean
continued representation for the
district in this larger organization,
one of the most important in an
educational way, in the state. Mr..
Flint has served but one year on
the Board. He and Messrs. Sand
and Johnson were elected last
election to fill two three-year and
one one-year terms. Mr.. Flint
volunteered to take the short
term, and the members feel that
IL Will NC " lnC hLC COl vi Lht
schools to have him continue on
the board. Both he and Mr.. Her.
man have been faithful members
who gave generously of their
Tine to the work of the board.

OBITUARY
MRS. LUCY MITCHELL MITCHELL

mKS. LUZ lhiiohLLL MllCfiEIL
Mrs. Lucy Mitchell, wife of Ray
Mitchell passed from this life at
5.3o a. M. Saturday, March "a.
Death resulted from uremic poi
soning which came as a complica-
finn of chronic bladder trouble
from which she had suffered Sc
verely and often. Mrs. Mitchell
was taken i'll at Poplar about a
week before she died and was
brought here by train and placed
in a hospital. Everything possible
was done to relieve her suffering
and stave off the fatal hour.
Friends waited, anxious for the
chance to lend assistance or do
some act OF kindness.
The funeral was set for Tues
day afternoon to give the scatter
ed relatives time to reach here.
The services were conducted at
the Catholic church by Rev. See
thaler. The church was packed to
the doors and beyond with people
from every walk, who came to pay
a tribute of love and friendship.
The floral offerings were beauti-
full and abundant.
The casket bearing the mortal
remains was taken to Poplar for
interment beside her mother. APP
propriate services were conducted
at the cemetery. Twenty cars
from here accompanied the re-
mains to it's last resting place.
Lucy Mitchell was born at or
neal the present site of Wolf
Point 81 years ago, the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Dan Mitchell. Ac-
cording to the best information
o%btainable she was of three-eights
Indian blood. Her life was lived
in this section of the state, mostly,
in the midst of relatives and a
host of friends. She was acquaint-
ed with virtually everybody of
both races and universally es-
teemed and loved for her innum-
cradle acts of kindness and aid.
No service was too trying or haz-
ardous for her to undertake. If
no one else could be found "Lucy"
always to be depended on to
go to the poor Or the sick. She
sometimes engaged by the
county officials to take care of
women or children who had to be
conveyed to state institutions.
A few months ago Mrs. Mitchell
and her husband took into their
home a motherless child of two
years, an act in keeping with the
western big h%eartedness that
marked her attitude toward those !.
around her.
Eighteen years ago Lucy Nit
was married to Ray Mitchell
Who survives her. Other surviv-
ng relatives are a son, Thomas,
a former marriage, two broth
RS, three sisters, the father, Dan
Mitchell, a grandmother, Sc years
If age, and a large number of
UNITS, uncles and cousins. Be
ides a large number of other
the relatives who were
-ere for the funeral included:
Irs. Eva OFT, Miles City, mother of
Ray Mitchell; Mr.. and Mrs. Rich
rd Mitchell, Miles City. Mrs.
lex Verdon and Mrs. J. T. Bro
